Every interaction has its own set of rules and its own set of natural paths to take. Sometimes, stopping just before your lips meet hers and just let her feel your hot breath on her lips is more powerful than the deepest kiss.

Yes, sometimes it is enough knowing that she would have done everything I would have asked of her. Other times it is my role to show her how much she indeed will give, above and beyond anything she thought she had it in her to give.
