To Watch You Shatter

The next time I was pulled from the dark abyss, the rain had slowed considerably as a drizzle replaced the storm. The sun was already up but hidden behind thick clouds that turned the sky a violent purple gray, almost like a bruise.

I was also alone in bed.

The smell of coffee hit my nose, and I was instantly out from under the sheets, grabbing Colten’s discarded dress shirt from last night off the floor. My clothes seemed to be missing. I buttoned it together quickly, letting the top hang near my shoulders. Getting the bottom part covered and coffee was my main objective.

I opened the door and peeked out. No one was in the sitting area, but when I peered into the kitchen, I saw Colten leaning against the counter, wearing only his glasses and a pair of sweatpants. A black coffee cup was held in his hand, and he took a sip from it while smiling.

My feet moved without authorization as I swiftly headed for the kitchen in search of a cup. Colten moved quicker than I could, pulling out a black cup to match his and filling it with hot coffee. When I made it to the counter, he had also added a small bowl of sugar, cream, non-dairy creamer, and a spoon.

“How do you take your coffee?” I asked him as I fixed my cup; three heaping scoops of non-dairy creamer and one small spoon of sugar.

“Dash of cream, no sugar,” he said, putting his cup on the counter and refilling it just to demonstrate as I had. I sat on the chair, letting my mug warm my hands. Swirls of steam rose into the air, twisting and turning until evaporating into nothing. That was how my mind felt this morning.

“A little sore, but overall, really good.” I smiled and hoped that was a good enough answer. I took another sip of my coffee so I wouldn’t have to smile anymore. The top had cooled just enough to allow me a bigger gulp of the deliciously nutty and smooth coffee.

“You liked that sip of coffee more than you liked answering my question,” Colten hedged.

“The sex,” I said, making sure to say the word this time, “was great. Soul-shattering, as promised. But I don’t feel different, and I’m not sure if I was supposed to.”

Colten seemed to contemplate my answer for a moment. “I guess some people latch on to the idea of virginity with youth and see the loss of it as a transformational time from child to adult. You clearly do not have that association.”

I thought about it for a moment, and it made sense. That and the weird arrangement we
