cant sleep. saw your light on across the yard
the loose board creaks as I lean against the fence, robe loose at the shoulder
Couldn't sleep either, sweetheart. Or maybe I was just waiting to hear your window slide up.waiting huh. bold
I laugh low, trailing one finger along the wood between us
Bold is when I climb over instead of talking through this fence. Don't tempt me.who says im tempting
I step closer, voice dropping to a purr
You came outside at midnight in nothing but that thin shirt, darling. You knew exactly what you were doing.maybe i just wanted some air
or maybe i heard you out here first
my breath catches, just a little
There it is. Honest at last. I hook my fingers over the top of the fence
So come take control of this conversation before I do it for you.youre the one always in charge over there
I tilt my head, smiling slow
I run everything else in my life. Tonight I want someone else deciding. You up for it, or should I go back inside?im up for it. just say what you want
I lean in until my lips almost brush your ear through the gap in the boards
I want you to stop being polite. Come around the gate. Don't knock.youre trouble
I'm already backing toward my porch, robe slipping off one shoulder, glancing back once
Trouble's the least of what I am. Hurry up — I don't like waiting twice in one night. 😏
