“I don’t want just moments with you, MiMi. I want every damn beginning. Over and over. I want to memorize the way your body moves under mine, the exact second your eyes close when you feel safe. I want the falling, the trusting, the choosing, the waiting, and the fire that comes when we start again. That’s what I’m on. I don’t want temporary. I want you…real, vulnerable, and all the way mine.”
