The attraction between them was there. It had always been there, from the first day that they met until this very day. It was something in their bodies. The attraction was as much apart of them as they’re own blood. They couldn’t deny it anymore than they could deny they’re beating hearts.
An attraction, however, is what is always was. Nothing more, but still nothing less. Neither of them had ever really had the thought of hooking up for anything other than a purely physical. It wasn’t that they didn’t like each other, or that they didn’t get along. The thought of them together was simply not there.
The simple fact remained, though, that if they were ever in the same room an electricity seemed to pull them together. From across the room they were drawn to one another. Even as they lay on the couch, the others in the room caught up in the movie on the screen, they desired to be closer. They bodies touching and yearning for more. She lay upon his chest and still this was not enough for their bodies. They grinded against each other, almost trying to become one.
The movie played, others kissed, some watched intently, they just lay. There together entwined. Fingers ran through hair and down the small of back, tracing this line and that. Beckoning a forbidden touch, almost guiding themselves towards a goal neither were aware of.
The movie ended, some bodies shifted, lights were turned on, and still they lay. As the room became more and more deserted they simply lay on the couch caressing one another until at last they were alone. Slowly at first, then more desperately with time, a motion began between them.
It came from her. A press of her hips against his leg straddled between her own. Harder and harder with each repetition it continued. Soon he was pressing his leg back against her. He ran his fingers up and down her back as the motions continued.
The pace was achingly slow, yet neither would have desired it any other way. Her face was pressed against his chest, her hands behind his back gripped him tightly, and she smiled. He lay with his hands caressing her back, one leg of his between hers, his head cocked slightly back, and a smile upon his face.
Minutes passed while this slow and steady ritual continued. Then the change occurred. It was mandated by their bodies, as if they had no say in the matter at all. The throbbing in his pants was apparent and the wetness in hers was equally evident. She lifted her head as he turned his towards hers. A chill ran down both their spines as their lonely lips met for the first time in what seemed ages.
