Locked to Adam

[thedescent_into]

From here.

It's a decent hike all the way from The Compound to Adam's hut -- Their hut, she has to keep reminding herself. She's spent so much time there, she'd assumed it wouldn't be a big transition, but somehow, the move seems like an immeasurably large step... For her, and for the two of them

In the middle of the day, with Coraline off doing her own thing, the hut's quiet, nobody there but the cat sleeping in the sun. Adam takes hold of Sarah from behind, pulling her back against him, bending his head to graze a kiss against the side of her neck.

His hand grazes up the front of her body, brushing over her breast-bone again.

"Where was I?"

"I don't know," she breathes, her eyelids fluttering and her head tipping to give him better access, "You'll have to remind me."

For now, she's content to be passive. It makes her nervous now to give up control in every other aspect of her life except for this one. With him, things will always be different.

His other hand cups the side of her face, thumb against her cheek as he sucks at her pulse, his thumb back against the soft, yielding skin of her breast, pressing lightly.

"I think I'm starting to recall."

"Starting to?" she laughs, a husky breath of a sound, her spine arching, pressing herself closer to him. It's suddenly unbearably hot. A sticky, heavy humidity pressing down on her from the outside, and a deeper, burning heat churning up in her middle and spreading out under her skin.

She steps out of her shoes and reaches back to slide a hand into his hair. There's still something vaguely forbidden about all this -- a man who had been as close to her as family, but one little push and everything changed.
