Farid's long eyelashes fluttered open. It took him a moment to realize where he was exactly. But then he saw Meggie, lying beside him with her head on his bare chest. He smiled. The morning sun was hitting her hair just right, making it gleam an angelic gold. Farid gingerly ran his fingers through her hair, still half asleep. Meggie awoke instantly, but she didn't let him know. She loved it when he would stroke her hair. A little while after, a smiled flickered across her face, and she slowly opened her eyes. "Morning," Farid breathed, caressing the side of her face.
"Morning," she whispered sleepily. Meggie sat up for a moment, but then crawled back into Farid's warm protective arms. He held her close, so close he could feel her heart beating against him. They stayed like that for awhile, but then Meggie moved so she was on top of him. She entwined her fingers in his thick curls, and pressed her lips to his. Soon, their kisses grew more eager, and Farid put his hands on her back caressing her all over. She laughed as he rolled on top of her, and propped himself up on his elbows to ensure he wouldn't crush her. He pushed his mouth against hers. He'd never kissed like this before, so lovingly, so full of passion. Farid felt a shiver make its way through his body, and he was sure it wasn't the cold. He kissed her nose, her eyes, her face, her neck….but then he rolled off of her, completely out of breath. The two of them lay there, gasping side by side. "That was fun," whispered Farid. Meggie burst out laughing and gave him a quick kiss on the nose.
Then Farid remembered that writing he saw on the wall last night. He glanced over at it, Yep, it was definitely words. "Meggie," he asked, "what's that say?" He pointed to the writing. She arched her eyebrows, and cocked her head to the side.
"That's funny," she whispered, and moved closer to the wall opposite them.
"What's it say?" asked Farid, unable to contain his curiosity.
"Dustfinger and Roxane."
