Darkness

They met under the cover of darkness, hands reaching, touching, exploring and searing each other's flesh as they sought satisfaction. They had so very little time so not a second was wasted. Lips met hungrily sharing passion. Tongues intertwined battling for dominance, lips met flesh sending shivers of pleasure through the lover's bodies.

These clandestine meetings, the heated kisses, the rough caresses were how they declared their love. Not a word passed between the two during the act, the only sounds made were moans that fueled more wanting. Afterwards he would gaze into her eyes and then hug her tightly before it was time for him to return to reality. After they had gotten dressed she would walk him to the door, this is where greetings were finally exchanged.

"See you in the morning Lieutenant" he said quietly.

"As always Colonel" she replied as she slowly closed the door. When the door was shut, she raised her hand to place it on the cold wood of the door, she knew he was on the other side doing just the same.
