1. Can You Smell My Morning Death?(Then)

I woke up to the sun, eyes crusted, mouth dry and body feeling heavy as if it had been falling and has finally just collapsed.

It was quiet, cave echoingly so, but then again, my house, tall, hulking even, always was and even after...it was even more silent.

“Let me in god dammit!” Matt mumbled feverishly, his hands digging into my faded window frame, his long legs quivering on the rose inter twined fence that snakes up to the roof- luckily around my only window as well. Matt's hands, large and rough- scar etched and nicely calloused -shake, almost as bad as my hands that are folded from his view. I wouldn't want him to see how much my parents not being here actually does bother someone as 'collected' as me. I hold a finger to my over glossed lips well my other arm remains behind my back.

He stumbles onto my too large richly draped bed and opens his thighs, his feet resting on the ugly expensive carpet around it. A small laugh escapes me as I jump onto him, knocking his breath out for a second in the process.

“It's done” I whisper, even if there's no need, titling my head back and resting it on his side shoulders, my lips brushing his ear.

“Show me.” Matt whispers back, his eyes catching mine, his gaze unnervingly knowing.
