Afterwards, we lay in bed, side by each, my arms wrapped around her waist. Very relaxed, enjoying the quiet and the closeness.
"Thank you Alex...for calling me..for wanting to be with me, like I want to be with you. I haven't had that for awhile.It's not like the other men I've been liking of late have known who I was, but...they sensed something else and were spooked. But you know who I am and even though you can't be..." She stopped, in mid-sentence. "I'm sorry Alex, I forgot...you can be again..."
"Shhhh Sara, I don't want to think about that right now. I just want to lay here with you. Leave the world outside. It's just you and I here now. A man and a woman. Together. The world can wait, it doesn't need you right now."
