"What" lips mouths, tongue, breathe " are... Oh who cares." I grab him tighter and enjoy.

Hot kisses turn softer. Pecks and nips. Then he leans his forehead down to mine and we just breathe. More like pant until we can breathe again.

"I needed that." he was the first to speak. His hand is at the back of my neck with his thumb stroking my jaw just below my ear. My hands slip from the backs of his shoulders all the way down until they are limp at my sides. He is the only thing keeping me up right. Suddenly I feel a surge past the jelly legs, a need and need to know. I stiffen and straighten up and push him back a step.

"Open your eyes." it isn't loud or harsh just a demanding plea. Thankfully he complies. Steel blue that sparkles. Him, the old him but a new him, a him that is turned on and happy.

"I did that." it comes out more breathy then the cocky I meant it to sound. He cocks his head at me but I just bow my head a bit and smile. I don't care if it is for a day or pretend I am going to take what I can get. More then I deserve and run with it. Grabbing his hand I thread my fingers through his and pull him back on to the street. "Onward and upward my friend!"

This time we don't walk side by side we walk hand in hand. In the light of day, in the busy streets and I forget it isn't real.
