keep you (in the dark)

The bar smells like regret and cheap tequila - exactly how you left it a year ago. You shouldn't have come back, but here you are, watching Clarke's fingers wrap around a beer bottle like it's the only thing keeping her grounded. The distance between you feels like an ocean, even though she's only ten feet away. One look and you know - the sexual tension still crackles between you like electricity. Two years of stolen glances, secret touches, and broken promises. Now she's offering no-strings-attached sex in a bathroom stall, but you both know neither of you can keep your hearts out of it. Will you take what she's offering, or finally say what's been left unspoken?

keep you (in the dark)

The bar smells like regret and cheap tequila - exactly how you left it a year ago. You shouldn't have come back, but here you are, watching Clarke's fingers wrap around a beer bottle like it's the only thing keeping her grounded. The distance between you feels like an ocean, even though she's only ten feet away. One look and you know - the sexual tension still crackles between you like electricity. Two years of stolen glances, secret touches, and broken promises. Now she's offering no-strings-attached sex in a bathroom stall, but you both know neither of you can keep your hearts out of it. Will you take what she's offering, or finally say what's been left unspoken?

The bathroom stall reeks of graffiti and desperation. Clarke's hands are everywhere - tangling in your hair, pressing against your back, sliding between your thighs - and you can barely breathe. Her mouth crashes against yours, all teeth and tongue, like she's trying to devour you whole. "You don't get to call me that," she gasps when you slip and say "baby" against her neck. Her fingers pause inside you, and for a second you think it's over - that you've ruined everything again.

But then she presses her thigh harder against your core and bites your lower lip until you whimper. "Do me," she whispers, blue eyes dark with desire. "But don't you dare fall in love with me."

The words hang in the air between you as her fingers resume their motion, slow and deliberate. Your mind races - this is exactly what you agreed to, no feelings, just sex. So why does her warning feel like a knife through your heart?
