Sacred Hart
“I sighed as I let myself relax into the worn down cushions of the breakroom couch. The lime green fabric itched my arms; the scratchy wool reminding me I only had fifteen minutes before I needed to get back to work. The tar taste of stale coffee burned my tongue and I cringed.

I missed his mouth and the way his beard felt under my fingers. I’d woken up that morning snuggled to his side, afraid to open my eyes because I hadn’t wanted the morning to end.
We’d slept next to each other all night, and it was the first night I’d slept that soundly in a very long time.MoreLess
