Summary
“Was that anything like your books describe it?” Kaveh asks, sudden.
No, Alhaitham thinks, it was not. His books failed to describe the emotional weight that came with it. Alhaitham, who always held himself together with ease, crumbled down the moment their bodies had become one. No book he has read prepared him for the possessiveness that followed after, the desire to tease, the need for more. No description of the act included lingering thoughts of Kaveh, sprawled on a divan, near-nude with such a needy expression. No words he has read warned him of love, and desire, and want.
No, Alhaitham thinks, it was not. It was so terribly better.
