for now, it's breath and sound
It wasn't like other nights.
Granted, it wouldn't be very long until Marlene would see Gideon again, but goodbyes always got to her; in fact, it was increasingly difficult to bid her friends farewell as the years went by. And now, in the ever-changing and now dangerous world...
But she wasn't going to think about that now. They were to forget about everyone else when the curtains were closed and the appropriate spells were put in place, even when they weren't making love and just lying there in each others' arms.
Marlene sat against the headboard of Gideon's bed, already in her little nightdress, curled up, hugging her knees.
