they lay entwined there together, naked on the queen sized bed of the rented hotel room. she rested her head on his chest listening to the beat of his heart, his right arm draped around her petite figure.
in this moment she felt complete bliss knowing that he had chosen her to be with that night. she smiled to herself as they shared their warm embrace. he had a way of stroking her ego into believing she was the only woman in the world for him. he helped her forget her worries and anxieties as the rest of the world melted away whenever they were together. she forgot about her boyfriend with him, and he relished the idea of knowing she betrayed him for himself.
they fell asleep to the rhythmic breathing of the other.
the morning sun shone in through the slightly parted curtains. it was time to check out of the hotel room that enabled their forbidden tryst the night before. as they dressed she felt the slow realization of emptiness come down upon her. she knew she had to face the loving and unaware smile of her boyfriend, and she knew that this man would leave her to seduce his number of other familiars.
betraying her bofriend was not what was filling her with sadness, as she had done so on several occasions with various men. no, it was this man she was currently with, his ability to raise her high above the clouds into nirvana but knowing she was not his only one.
he savoured his time with her because they were stolen moments of forbidden desire. he loved her when they were together but only because he could not possess her.
he did not want to possess her, he only wanted to have her.
she wanted to be with him but knew his feeling of exclusive desire was not reciprocated. he wanted to be with her just as much as he wanted to be with his others.
