Clothes long cast to the side, pooling on the floor in puddles, you and Simon were intertwined in your bedsheets. Beautiful golden light bathed the two lovers in liquid light, swimming around them like manta rays.

His hands glided down your back tenderly and settled on caressing your waist. He replied lovingly, “I’d let the world burn for you.”
