The moment his lips were just about to meet hers, he stopped.
He seemed to be struggling desperately with something, and many emotions flickered across his eyes. A long time later, he eventually decided against tainting her. He tilted his face away to create some distance between his lips and hers and held his breath in silence for a moment before he finally straightened his posture. He then switched off the lights, leaving only the night lights on before he walked away.
Since she was asleep, he decided not to blow dry his hair out of fear that the sound of the hairdryer would wake her up.
He lay down on the sofa and fiddled inattentively with his phone for a moment before his gaze unwittingly turned back to her sleeping figure.
Staring and staring, he suddenly felt the urge to return to the bathroom and take another cold shower...
This is really shortening my life...
