Letting Her Hair Down
She cushions her head on his chest, curling against him. Long, clever fingers trail up her neck into her hair, searching out the pins and depositing them in her open palm before returning to unravel her thick braid. Parting the coiled strands, combing through them until they spread and settle in waves around her shoulders, he says "Ah!" softly as he discovers a straggler, adds it to her little collection. "Lizzie?"
She rouses reluctantly from a trance of sensation. "Hmm?"
"You make a very pretty little lad, love. But all the same, I'm rather glad you didn't cut your hair."
