No amount of willpower could stop the nuzzle she administered to his shoulder when he changed position, her ear rested against his bicep and for a moment she forgot what she was. In his arms she felt normal. A little weak, mostly in the knees, but that was merely the attraction talking. Every now and then the gentle brush of Brian’s fingertips caused a stuttered exhale of breath, a barely restrained giggle, as her skin responded. Valerie returned the favour, walked feather light fingers down his neck, across his chest, swirling patterns of nothingness.
As the story behind the ink was told Valerie searched his features. She brushed some of his hair off his forehead then caressed his cheek. It was gentle fingers that guided his chin up so she could look him in the eye as she whispered, “That is not stupid. It’s profoundly sweet, and tragic, and came from love.” She dropped her hand to trace the ink but kept her gaze on Brian. “Don’t ever cheapen it by thinking it’s anything less than beautiful.”
Was it luck or was it fate that this tall, gentle souled, musician was now her boyfriend? Valerie couldn’t decide, but she did know without the shadow of a doubt, that she’d been waiting to meet him her entire life. The thought was quickly followed by a much darker one. If anything, or anyone, ever tried to hurt him… No power on earth would stop the blonde from destroying them.
