Lonely
It was cold, too cold. The warmth that was normally encircling her body was not there. Her eyes remained closed although numerous questions arose. A final decision reached her mind. She slowly turned over to see what she had already known. In fact, Michael was not in bed. It was empty the blankets and sheets had grown cold with his absence. Slowly Selene sat up and looked around the darkened room. There was no one but herself in the silent corridor. She climbed out of the bed without making the slightest of sounds. The bed seemed not to move when she left.
She crept quickly over to the bathroom door. The light was on, but the only sound was water…water. The shower. She mischievously opened the door and crept in without the slightest of movement. Closing the door with the tiniest of clicks for the doors antique frame. The showers steam covered the figure inside it like a veil of a newly married bride. She walked towards the shower and opened the sliding door. There. Her love. Michael. He turned around slowly shocked that he had been found.
" I'm sorry to wake you"
She smiled and began to peel off her loose garments of clothing.
" That's ok, I think this is better."
She wrapped herself around the warm body of her lover encased in his broad embrace. The warmth was there. He was there. Michael her love.
"I love you"
He smiled and caressed her sweetly.
