She was more aware of him than ever.
His hand was warm against her tanned skin. His robes rustled ever so softly. His breathing was slow, as though he was making an effort to calm himself as much as he could. Those soft lips were pressed into a thin line he kept his eyes downcast. She could see them burning with an intensity even she had rarely seen. A strand of his hair had escaped the topknot and tickled her cheek. He blinked slowly, dark lashes kissing pale cheeks and then rising like a curtain, revealing those liquid golden eyes once more. Their bodies were pressed against one another, his chest to her back. He was solid and strong, and yet, she could feel his knees shaking ever so slightly. His breath smelled like ashes and flames. She could practically see him wanting to bite his lower lip, tue need was glowing in his eyes. The need to move, to do something, to unleash the tension, and yet a stronger need to stay perfectly still.
Then there was a tiny explosion on his face, although the rest of him stayed perfectly still. His eyes widened, the mouth opened just a little; there was a tiny gasp. His eyebrows arched upwards; the fire in his eyes blazed. Then, he smiled and put his head on her shoulder. His hand moved a little, the long fingers caressing her bulging stomach.
The child, it seemed, was very aware of him, too.
I can only hope that you, my dear readers, will be able to forgive me for not updating for such a long time. First, school really tied me down, then my harddrive crashed (it took away everything I had already written) and finally my graphics card broke, preventing me from accessing my computer.
But now I'm back on track and making good progress rewriting the new Twilight chapter!
Anyway, thanks for reading, please leave a review.
Yours,
Inkcharm
