บท 18: Chapter 17: LUCIEN

I shut out my surroundings and gazed up at the stars, letting my mind cleanse itself of all clutter. As first meetings go it wasn't as bad as it could've been but we still have a long way to go. My greatest obstacle is obviously overcoming her fear, something I don't yet know the correct path to. Ergo my reason for freezing my ass off in the alps.

I've made many a great decision here in the past and was sure something of use would come to me given time, but I don't have a hell of a lot of that. Five days now and counting. My stupid ass hadn't taken into account how my body would feel without hers after that little taste. Agony!

Her scent was all over me and once I cleared my head it's all that was left, the memory of how she felt in my arms, the taste of her lips, the way she smelt, it lingered on the palate. The glorious stars started to blend together the longer I stared, but even as I laid there still upon the hard cold ground, my mind was making plays.
