Edit:
Exactly how much freedom do we get re; the prompt? Like, does it have to referr to the material cotton?

Okay, awesome. My use is.. a bit abstract(i think that's the word I want.).

The touch, the feel...Cassidy is fairly sure this isn't what the marketers of cotton had in mind when they came up with that particular jingle. Cotton is all homespun innocence, little girls in sundresses and warm towels pulled from the dryer. No, the way this beautiful boy is sliding the sheets down his body is positively decadent, but it feels so good. 400 thread count Egyptian cotton glides over his chest and whispers across his cock, and then it's replaced by a hot mouth. The fabric of our lives. Cassidy buries his fingers in hair as soft as cotton.

Drabble: Circus – Gen/No pairing – G – Cass’ POV hatemetoday_xx September 25 2009, 20:46:09 UTC

Its funny how a scent or taste can transport you back, but it happens to me all the time. Take the cotton candy I had today at the carnival for example - I couldn’t help but think back to my days in the circus. The kids in the crowd always loved the candy.

I miss it sometimes, y’know. It was a defining point in my life - I have a lot of memories from those days, both good and bad. I wouldn’t go back, though. Not permanently, at least. I’m past it all, on a different track, but I still miss it.

Nice exploration of sense memory. Thanks.
