As our lips separate, both of us seem breathless. Our bodies not really moving, yet not standing still either, as the music flowing around us breaks the silence. With my head resting against Mike's chest, I can hear the soft beating of his heart; rapid at first, then gradually slowing its pace as we stand in our embrace, just holding each other close. I want to kiss him again. I could kiss Mike endlessly, just to feel those glorious sensations coursing through me once more. His body so warm, so masculine. Closing my eyes, I relish the feel of his body against mine.

Feeling Mike's hold on me loosen, I look up searchingly into his eyes.

"Still want to go out?" Mike asks.
