Written for the Bonfire Night "Discovered in a Skyrocket" challenge on the discoveredinalj Livejournal community.


Past the door hinge, a sliced view of the room, dark but for a puddle of light over the bed. There, two blackened eyes set in an overly pale face topped by dark wavy hair. Bodie - who should be sleeping, not doing whatever it is he's doing.

Blankets, pushed down, give the perfect view. Of fingers skating from nipple to nipple, pinching them into hard pink peaks. A hand flat against a slightly rounded belly, fingertips vanishing beneath the sheet. Of opened mouth and soundless cry. Spasmodic jerk of hips and wet spreading warmth. Of sated smile and sleep.
