Some Things Don't Need Mentioning
“I hope you’re not letting your mind wander too much…”
But it’s hard not to fantasize about the thought of your touch.
“To think, more than five minutes alone would probably be the limit,”
My door’s lock would turn to the left the second you stepped within it.
“If this went any further, this could quickly get dangerous…”
We’re both mature, capable individuals, I think we can easily handle this.
“You’re absolutely killing me, don’t act like you don’t know it.”
If you’re so innocent, if you’re so pure, you certainly don’t show it.
“Purer than pure.”
Whiter than snow?
“Yeah, sure.”
How did I know?
“I think it’s okay, I kind of like ‘terrible.’”
Good for me, I’ve done things that are incomparable.
“I have a thing for collarbones…”
You say that, quoting a line from the world’s greatest love song.
“Now, I mean come on, who doesn’t enjoy the neck?”
My thoughts exactly, I’ll turn yours into a trainwreck.
“A little pain never hurt anyone…”
No pleasure without pain, that’s when things start getting fun.
“But, what if we get caught?”
When have I ever cared about what somebody else thought?
“I think we’ll have some time to ourselves around noon.”
Think an hour is enough, what if he comes back too soon?
“The sun is on its way up, I love that we’re doing this again.”
It’s alright; I’m used to it – a vampire among men.
“You know what else I truly love? A good pull of the hair…”
Just say the word and give it some time, in a heartbeat I can be there.
“…no stopping is necessary, never ever ever…”
I don’t think I could agree any more, this couldn’t get any better.
Hmm, well I’m intrigued; you’d better be damn good.
“Oh, I better be? Well, we’ll see, and then this will all be understood.”
“I love a peck placed upon each lip, or a bite between each kiss.”
Well then I’d make you smile, so what are we going to do about this?
“After you told me that you trace tattoos, I think that was the end of it…”
Sounds to me like just the beginning, and it sounds like we’re both going to love it.
“I can tie a cherry’s stem in a knot…”
Oh, please, you kidding? Is that all you’ve got?
So do you always keep boys up until the moon sets?
“Only if the boy is you, then my answer would be yes.”
“Maybe if you’re lucky, I’ll let you find my spots.”
If I’m dealt the right hand of cards, I won’t ever remotely stop.
Neck, ears, hips, shoulders. Stop me when I get one wrong…
“Can we run away together, I think you and I belong.”
I’m only joking.
“Can you not be?”
This needs to stay unspoken.
“Don’t say that to me.”
“Talking about my spots and places, why do you tease me like you do?”
Teasing implies that I wouldn’t follow through…
“It wouldn’t take much for my mind to wander and just never return…”
I ask what’s so good about this place; you say it’s none of my concern.
“Indescribable things, way too good to tell you…”
If you don’t elaborate, I can never promise they’re all true.
“You could…”
I would.
“You’d just be proving a point?”
I’d be making sure that I don’t disappoint.
“I better not sleep. Prozac makes me dream, don’t wanna encourage it.”
I don’t see the problem, crimes don’t count if you’re asleep while you commit.
Let your mind roam free, no fences can hold you in there.
“I like that, a lot actually. It was stupid to be scared.”
“No restrictions, seems risky.”
I can’t help but agree.
“I wouldn’t stop it.”
I wouldn’t stop.
“I wouldn’t want you to.”
I wouldn’t want to.
I feel like this is goodnight.
“Dreams are starting to sound about right.”
The sun just rose, and I’ve been awake for a week.
“You need your sleep, don’t stay awake just for me.”
I’ll live, I need you, I can go without rest.
“Make up your mind and do what feels best.”
I should sleep, before things get out of hand.
“You say that as if they aren’t already, but I completely understand.”
I’d love to stay, but my pillow is calling my name.
“I told you that you need it, I can’t complain.”
This chapter ends, the pages turn.
I’ve read this one before, when will I learn?
