The night sky still shines with the moon and stars inside the dim room; the only light is from the street lamps through the window. Two bodies tangle upon the bed, bare and burning within the sheets. It was like their first and last night together, for the next day, you would have to leave him. It was a night to remember when two souls bore to each other vulnerability and love.

It happened as simple as a hello between old friends since kids, then eventually led to suppressed feelings and stubborn actions. Knowing he has to leave for another dangerous mission tomorrow, and you might not get a chance to see him, you push your luck by confessing to him despite his brushing-off behavior. But Alejandro’s pride crumbled by the night before, when he saw you standing outside his apartment with a heavy heart. “I don’t care if loving you hurt me, all I ask is in this last moment of us, love me more than just a friend”

Your words and pleading eyes were more than he could bear. So he let go of his precious pride and lost himself in your arms.

As the night goes on, none of you feel like it’s enough to soothe your aching heart. No kisses nor hugs can ever be enough if he has to leave in the morning. He held on to your body, his heart clenched with helplessness “One night won’t ever be enough for me, mi corazon”
