just a moment to hold

REMI

the lullaby

there's a light that you give me
when I'm in shadow

She melts against him, and to say that one head of his wasn't brilliantly painting portraits of pinning her against the dark grasses and freeing himself from the confines of his pants, would be a lie. Still, with his teeth grit together to still the inclination of his lower half, he wraps his arms around her, pressing a kiss to the top of her head.

"When has stupid ever stopped us, mm? After all these years?" Isla's smile is met by nothing short of adoration beaming from Remi, as he shakes his head. "Also to answer your question, of course I remember." His voice shifts, accent thickening with the hindsight of memory as he looks down at her. "I remember seeing you lost in the moonlight. I'd never seen you so out of sorts." Truthfully, Remi had thought she was going to die at the time. "So yes I remember. But I also remember every moment that came after, too. Just like I will now."

Much as he appreciated everything she did while poised between his legs, it was all just a pleasurable blip in the life they'd led together so far. That said, Remi can't help but tilt his head as his smile grows wry. "But gods if you don't make my mind a blur sometimes when we're like that. I was having a hard time remembering how to breathe much less form sentences."

there's a feeling you give me, an everglow
