Bookmark Notes:
This story is utterly, utterly beautiful. I love how it's outcome is inevitable -- how despite the modern setting, the oldest story there is plays out as it always has and always will; with a betrayal and a resurrection. This is both painful and wonderful.

Bookmark Notes:
Then he turns to me. He puts his hand over mine on the glass and says, don't you want me...? He is far too young and far too naive, but his mouth is stained with wine and his skin is as sweet as salvation.
I think I say, let me love you...
I think he says yes, but I can't be sure: I do know that we make love on that hill with his shirt beneath us and the stars too far above.
He shares the taste of our bodies with such wonder, yet at the same time he knows the steps of this dance so well that I curse the names of the men who have been here before me.
I am flushed with lust for him, the sound he makes when he comes, as if he shouldn't, the shape of his shoulders against the sky.
It's all mine.
I am clothed in his skin.
I hadn't realised how hungry I was til he fed me.After the rain the drought.
