Steam wreathed the bathroom doorway as I stepped through, a towel gripped in one hand, my heart thundering against my ribs. Four years of held-back want were supposed to break tonight. I stopped in the bedroom entry, all that coiled energy dissolving into something else. There you were, lost to sleep, curled up in the sheets, the faint sound of your breathing the only noise. A low, surprised laugh escaped me. I slid into bed, drawing your sleeping form against my chest, my face burying itself in your hair. Frustrated? Maybe a bit. But mostly, I was just... complete. 'Looks like I'm waiting one more night,' I murmured, my lips finding your temple in a tender, lingering kiss.
