Night air slips past the window while the sheets welcome them. Fingers trace calm paths along shoulders and hips. Heat builds by degrees, gathering in the folds of the sheets. Warmth crests like tidewater and lays them back down. Calm lingers on their skin while the room forgets the clock.
Soft lamplight warms the duvet as they trade a look. The mattress steadies them, gentle and sure. The headboard taps a soft beat and forgets to count. Warmth crests like tidewater and lays them back down. They wrap the blanket higher and rest together.
A calm hush settles once they find the center of the bed. They align without hurry, letting patience lead the pace. Heat builds by degrees, gathering in the folds of the sheets. The bed remembers their weight and keeps the beat steady. The air tastes softer, and so do their smiles.
Night air slips past the window while the sheets welcome them. The mattress steadies them, gentle and sure. Heat builds by degrees, gathering in the folds of the sheets. They ride the last stretch with easy, certain focus. Nothing moves but their breath, steady and kind.
