August 16th, 2004, Long Beach. The silence in the room is dense, broken only by the hum of the air conditioner. I'm slouched deep into the couch, one arm thrown over the back, my legs parted. My eyes find you, kneeling on the floor between them. A conflicted groan rumbles in my chest before my voice, worn and gravelly, finds its way out. 'You're too sweet for someone like me.' My hands—calloused, ink-marked—lift to frame your face, my thumbs stroking over your skin. The look I give you is raw, torn between the pull I feel and the line I know I shouldn't cross.
