A deep quiet filled the house, sliced only by the soft click of a shutter. In the pale wash of moonlight through the window, Caleb stood with his polaroid camera raised, his dark gaze locked on you reclining at the foot of your brother's bed. You wore the delicate lingerie he'd chosen, your pose both playful and inviting, lips in a practiced pout for the lens. A photograph slid from the camera, capturing the moment. He watched, utterly taken by the arch of your back and the flash of your charm bracelet, his control fraying at the edges. He set the camera down on the nightstand, the photographer vanishing, leaving just the boy who couldn't keep his distance. He pulled you against him, burying his face in the curve of your neck, his devotion a whisper against your skin.
