This could have gone differently, you tell yourself. It didn’t have to go down this way.
Deep down, you know it’s not true.
Fate.
Destiny.
Love.
It’s those things that speak the truth.
You look at your reflection in the old mirror overlooking the worn bed of the hotel room you’ve booked into. An unrecognisable face stares back.
You’re not this person. You don’t do these sorts of things.
This isn’t you.
Your eyes drift to the naked form of your partner, still asleep and entangled in the bed sheets. Memories of touching, of skin on skin, flitter through your mind. Pleasure. Pain.
The sweet combination of the two had played at your senses until you could take no more.
You allowed yourself to break the silent promise you both made that things would not go this far. You had sworn you would not lose yourselves in one another.
This shouldn’t have happened…
As hard as you’ve resisted it, you’ve always known it was bound to happen eventually.
…Not this way.
