Epilogue
Some Time Later
Clarice woke to a bright ray of sun coming through the thin billowy curtains. It looked like today was going to be just as beautiful as the last. She could feel a warm breeze coming in from under the curtains where she had opened the window the night before. Yes, it would be a good day even if she did have to tie up a few loose ends before she could truly enjoy it. There was the serial killer that had made the mistake of coming onto the scene at the worst possible time and placeā¦for himself. She smiled as she felt a muscular arm tighten around her waist and she turned over to snuggle in for a few more moments of sleep before the world intruded once more. Her companion turned over to prop himself up on his elbow to look down at her. Her hair was mussed and lay around her and over the arm that held her securely. Her eyes her luminous and she stretched slightly before trying to hide a yawn in his shoulder. 'Good morning Doctor Lecter.'
He leaned down and kissed her possessively before pulling back just enough so that when he spoke the heat of his breath ran over the delicate skin of her neck and made her want to shiver.
'Good morning Mrs. Lecter.'
((So, did you like it? I realize the ending was kind of cheesy but I came up with the basis for this story after I came up with the title the morning after. I wondered what it would be like if she woke up and he was there and I thought this would be the best way for it to end. Please let me know what you think. I may lengthen the epilogue into a bit more of a full scene if people feel it would make it better or just really want it. Please review. It makes my little world a little brighter. Sincerely, Aurian Lladnek.))
