FIVE

Laura couldn’t sleep. She replayed the evening’s events over and over in her head, analyzing what had—and what hadn’t—happened. Telling Mel the truth was the right thing to do, it was. But it didn’t stop the voices, the little nudges, the drive to fully give herself to someone in a way she never had.

Nice Midwest girls did not do this, or if they did, they hid it well, because she certainly had never heard about it. Nice Midwest girls stayed in Ohio and worked in offices and called their mothers on Sunday. When was the last time she called her mother? She couldn’t remember.

The only thing she could remember right now was the taste of that red wine on Mel’s lips and the warmth of skin touching skin. The heat of intermingling breath. The feel of Mel’s hands exploring her body. The anticipation when Mel’s fingers lightly brushed her hip bone.

She couldn’t take it anymore. She slinked quietly out of the guest room and down the hall to the master bedroom and stood in the doorway, observing. Laura watched the duvet cover rise and fall with Mel’s every breath. Why could she sleep? It made no sense.

“Come get in bed with me,” Mel whispered. She was not asleep.

Laura shrugged off the bathrobe she had been loaned and slid in the bed as instructed, breathing a sigh of relief as Mel’s arms wrapped her waist from behind, as warm bent knees fit perfectly in the crook of her own.

The two lay there for a short eternity, breathing in and out in unison, peaceful in their bond, when it was Mel that couldn’t stand it anymore. She promised to not take advantage of the situation, but, her desire was impossible to contain at three a.m.

Mel brushed back Laura’s hair and began kissing her neck. Softly, gently. Instinctively, her hands moved higher, higher, until they caressed Laura’s breasts, her body responding immediately with sure signs of pleasure.

With a smoothness and grace about her, Mel slowly rolled so that she was facing Laura, so she could look deep into the eyes of this confused, gorgeous woman in her bed. Laura returned a hungry gaze, a silent plea.

“I want to taste every inch of your body so badly right now, to take you places you’ve never been,” Mel said with conviction. “But, I don’t want to fuck you up. Are you absolutely sure you want this?”

“I am absolutely sure. I. Want. This.”

That night started a fire in Laura that burned hot and burned fast.

The next six months were an absolute whirlwind, but then, as they do in time, things started to normalize. Life started to happen. Routines developed. She landed a steady job as an administrative assistant at a small publishing house. She was working in publishing—second best to actually being published—and had, for now, avoided fleeing back home.

She learned that New York gives you exactly what you put into it. There are no gifts. Laura’s mind was
