“I know how it is, he said, his tone shifting. Voice warm and low. Intimate again. You like it this way. Sneaking around. And it seemed to me he was offering a way out, and so I shrugged, nodded. Say nothing more, he said, reaching for me. Saved from having to explain, I kissed him to stop talk, to stop thought.” — Madelaine Lucas
I know how it is, he said, his tone shifting. Voice warm and low. Intimate again. You like it this way. Sneaking around.
And it seemed to me he was offering a way out, and so I shrugged, nodded.
Say nothing more, he said, reaching for me. Saved from having to explain, I kissed him to stop talk, to stop thought.
