MAEA
When was the last time she was held like this? She couldn't even recall. It felt good, and not only because she would be content not to move for a week at least. Simply breathing without strain and feeling the steady beat of Liam's heart against her shoulder was enough, so soothing that she nearly fell asleep on the spot.
His voice rumbled close to her ear, raising goosebumps along her neck. "Mmh, just need to rest a bit more," she murmured back. Reluctant to move, like this unexpected closeness was a stolen moment that might not happen again. Unbidden, Flora's teasing words about writing names in the margin of a journal popped into her thoughts, luring them into merry delusions of what a future might look like if these kinds of hugs were normal and his hands didn't stop at her waist. Good thing he was sitting behind her; like this he couldn't see the blush rising in her cheeks, though the fluttering pulse in her neck might reveal the growing nervousness as her body responded to his touch.
"I... uh... owe you an explanation, don't I?" It was hard to speak; her mouth seemed to have dried up, parched like desert sand.
