It starts with dreams.
Dreams that seem so real in the midst of them at the same time that the awareness that it's
just a dream exists. It's the images that linger in the morning and right before bed. His eyes. His smile. But it's the feelings that remain throughout the day, making it hard to concentrate.
How it feels to be with him, in his presence. (
And doesn't it feel good, baby?) The feeling that what has been seen is meant to be, and nothing else can get in the way of it. Nothing else will be allowed to get in the way of what is meant to be. The feeling that he is the sun and moon and stars, every cliche that should not capture anyone's body and mind so powerfully, but
does.
It's fate. It's love. (
Baby, I'm your man) It's
rightandwrong. It has been written with a knife in someone's skin, and you'd be letting that someone down... You'd be letting yourself down- worse, you'd be letting
him down unless you saved these moments for
him. And only him. And always
him.
It starts in an intimate Italian restaurant.
There's no one else here, but it's a public setting. The dinner has already been eaten. The plates are cleared away, but the table still has glasses of red wine set upon it.
It starts safe, or at least, with the appearance of safety and normalcy.
And the devil waits for
her (his beautiful, tasty virgin) to fall sleep and join him here.
