Pillow Talk

"I love your hair," Keanu's fingers wove through the thick strands of my dark mane that had fanned out across his chest.Meanwhile,I tried to restart my heart after it had skidded to a stop at the mention of the word 'love'.Thank heavens he couldn't see my face,I'm pretty sure it closely resembled a very ripe tomato.

"Oh yeah?" was the best I could manage, clearing my throat self consciously when my voice came out rusty.

"Um hmm," he answered,wrapping a dark lock around his finger,seemingly oblivious to my slight discomfort.

"I'll save you some after I get my pixie cut," I offered.

He snorted,pulling on the lock.

"You'd never," he dared.

"Wait till we get out of here," I promised him,raising my head to look at his face,and he rewarded my challenge with a pinch to my butt cheek.
