Andromeda shared a bed with her sister and every night they lay together.
Nowhere was as safe as their bed.
Nights together where no one would see them.
more importantly, no one would hear them.
They lay together
and she listened to her sister's heartbeat
thump – thump – thump – thump – thump
… quiet … soothing … gentle …
and then Bellatrix began to stroke her back.
Andi?
Yes, Bella?
She looked up to meet her sister's eyes and Bellatrix shook her head.
Watch the fireflies.
She looked out the window and watched them while her sister's hand moved lower
lower
lower
until it was in between her thighs and her heart beat faster
thump-thump-thump-thump-thump
and Andromeda bit her lip to keep silent
it felt nice
Bellatrix's fingers inside her
places that weren't supposed to be touched; mother said
and Bellatrix's heart beating ever faster
thumpthumpthumpthumpthump
Andromeda shivered but Bellatrix moaned
and then she relaxed and Andromeda curled up tight and listened to her heartbeat slow again
thumpthumpthump-thump – thump.
