I watched. I closed the distance. I watched some more. Every moment I could, I watched. Moments turned to hours Hours into days Days into weeks. I watched patiently, my desire unshaken. Waiting for the right moment… I’d never seen anything like her before. The hunt of a lifetime. Her ivory flesh, her honeyed crown, The sapphire I yearned for every nightfall, wishing for just a moment, would turn and meet mine. To lock eyes. To know she felt my presence, that she heard the drum of my beating heart in her wake. To know she felt the rush of blood through hollowed veins, the saliva pooling in my mouth. She’d never made it obvious. Was she playing with me? Trickery, a game to see who would bend the knee first. Who would reveal my presence? I was careful to never be too easy. Within the underbrush, under the ink of night, between alleyways, and always around the corner. Never out of sight, but never within either. Close, but never too close. Why should I make it easy? She runs… I chase… she runs… I chase… but oh how I wish for once she’d chase back. Was I not worth it? Was she ashamed of me? Didn’t she dream of me? Wrapped in my arms, held so tight, so so very tight… never to let go. I know she wished to be warm. I would keep her warm. I would never let her shiver. Not like the others. I know she wished to make me jealous. To make my desire insatiable. She would entertain them. Hold their hand. Sing them sweet nothings. I know she didn’t mean it. She couldn’t mean it. How could she, when she’d never sung to me? I watched her walk through the door. A moment later, the windows bled out the light cast inside. I wondered what she did in there. I was careful to never look. I imagined her slipping off her coat, throwing aside her wear. Sinking into bed, letting the exhaustion bleed through skin. I would make sure she never tired again. To never lift a finger, to never utter a word of want or need. I would take care of everything. I would take care of everything. My curiosity had grown insatiable. I couldn’t hold it back anymore. What was she doing in there? Was there someone else? Why was she always so eager to run home? Never lingered a moment outside, never dared to look for me. Did she not feel my presence? Not feel the desire to look? I slipped through the shade. I was careful not to make a sound. Not to leave a trace. Just in case I grew weak in my conviction. Just in case today was like every other day. Today was not like every other day. I needed to know. I made my way closer. Crept up the stone stairs. I heard a muffled voice inside. Then laughter. Easy, unguarded, a laugh with no weight in it. "...no, no one. I'm just tired. It's nothing." Nothing. She was protecting me. Of course. She wouldn't speak of me to them, wouldn't share what was ours. Nothing. The word sat in my mouth like a stone I couldn't swallow. I sized up the door. One layer from satiation. I'd grown to learn it well. The carved wood. The metal gone smooth where a thousand hands had turned it before mine. The grain. The swell where the paint had blistered and split. The hairline give in the lowest hinge. The way the frame drank the damp and held the door a half-breath tighter in the cold. I had measured all of it. I had learned it in her place. The closest I had ever come to touching anything of hers. I closed around the doorknob. The cold stung in all the ways I remembered the last time I’d tried. But I am not so weak anymore. I was ready. Was I ready? I was. Was I? I turned the knob.
