Chapitre 163: Silence

Silence lapsed over us while we took some minutes to gather our breaths. I gazed up blankly, contemplating the ceilings. Something I usually did whenever I had finished being involved in such activity. Yet that time was different, with Carl, I usually felt empty after I had released. With Cameron instead, I felt accomplished, grateful, joyfully, and at peace. As if I went for a long run on a rainy tiring day.

Maybe the figurative run was all the time I had spent without Cameron, now after the run -the time of my life we had spent separated -I was tired but I felt happy because all the efforts were worthy to make me feel well and gratified when I reached the final destination and met him. 

His hand shily went to place over mine and then he entwined his fingers with my own, holding them tightly.

His breaths were heavy and controlled, he turned around to look at me as a sincere smile filled his face.
