00:03:21the long line of summers after he doesn't argue one knee on the edge of the bed and he stretches
00:03:25up
00:03:25toward the unit i shrink into the corner but the bed's only so big as he leans the soaped gray
00:03:30tank
00:03:31brushes my shin heat sweat that sun warmed smell of him all of it crashing over me at once his
00:03:37arm

00:03:42i don't dare move no one's downstairs mom's still at the store the whole house is quiet just my sun
00:03:48-baked
00:03:48bedroom door shut sealed off from the rest of the world the thought sends a hotter prickle up my back
00:03:53up here door closed whatever happens no one below would know move over he says low his elbow
00:03:59pressing toward me there's nowhere to go his hip is against my drawn-up knees i'm wedged between him
00:04:04and the wall half of me pressed to his side i told you i can't get away from you he
00:04:09says glancing down
00:04:10his throat moving goes both ways he turns it a few times swears says the wiring's fried the whole thing
00:04:16has to come apart the minutes crawl the room's hot enough to swim in the two of us crammed into
00:04:20this
00:04:20scrap of space neither one talking my backs to the wall half of me against his sweat damp side
00:04:24the sweat glues us together skin to skin impossible to peel apart i should be disgusted i'm not i can
00:04:30feel the muscle in his side tighten with every turn of the screw that strength soaking through a thin
00:04:34film of sweat into my skin sinking low in my belly a picture rises before i can stop it if
00:04:40that hand
00:04:40weren't reaching for a screw overhead but sliding down my waist instead i kill the thought my face burns i
00:04:46hate him i think of the wedding day him standing there cold not even a hello two years ago i
00:04:51swore
00:04:51i'd never go soft for this man not once and right now my thighs are clamping together on their own
00:04:56the wet heat there is impossible to hide slick sticky mortifying it's the weather i lie to myself
00:05:04that's all just the heat irritated i try to shift to find room to breathe
00:05:09my knee moves and by accident grazes the inside of his thigh his hands stop the whole room goes
00:05:15still his voice drops to gravel it travels straight down my ear into my spine becca you'd better not
00:05:22move i don't listen my heart's slamming and something hotter than hate eggs me on i push out again elbow
00:05:29digging into his side on purpose the next second his free hand clamps down on my waist a hand big
00:05:34enough to
00:05:35span half of it too strong to fight and it hauls me back against him my gas jams in my
00:05:39throat my back
00:05:40hits his scalding sweat damp chest his heartbeat through two thin layers of cotton slams into my spine
00:05:45once again
00:05:49what are you doing i keep my voice down and claw at the arm locked across my waist it's cast
00:05:55iron it doesn't
00:05:56give i should break free drive an elbow into him call him a creep bolt downstairs but my body betrays
00:06:03me
00:06:03it sinks into him fitting against every scalding inch of him i can feel his breathing turn rough
00:06:07his chest rising and downing at my back he grunts my elbow jabbing stomach again in the scamble with it
00:06:12i won't give in and i'm even more scared he sees through me so i open my mouth for another
00:06:16jab
00:06:17nothing comes out his free hand lifts and closes around the front of my throat not hard but sure
00:06:22steady tipping the back of my head into the hollow of his shoulder every drop of blood in me runs
00:06:26cold
00:06:27then floods back scalding two years of fighting of cutting each other to the bone and he never once touched
00:06:32me
00:06:33but now his palm cradles my throat his thumb on the pulse going wild there and i'm not afraid
00:06:37being held completely in his hand helpless in his grip it turns me to water i'm in the same hell
00:06:41you
00:06:42his mouth is at my ear his breath hot and horsey each word brended in but you are going to
00:06:47hold
00:06:48still his breath fans against the side of my face no more squirming no more little whimpers making it
00:06:53worse the hand on my throat tightens a fraction you hear me i try to nod only then does he
00:06:59ease off
00:06:59i gulp for air my heart wild enough to leap out of my chest for a long stretch i stay
00:07:06curled against
00:07:06him not daring to move his arm stays locked around my waist never once loosening and his thumb against
00:07:13the damp curve of my side moves slow up then down up then down every drag of it sends a
00:07:19current
00:07:20sliding down to the small of my back i clamp my thighs tighter and it only makes the want sharper
00:07:24i want more the thought scares me that's when downstairs the front door clicks open i'm home
00:07:32mom's voice floats up over the rustle of grocery bags becca did your brother go up to fix your ac
00:07:39his thumb stops no no he didn't i call down forcing my voice into its usual annoyance he's probably
00:07:47off slacking somewhere again a beat of quiet below then from below let me come up and look at it

00:08:18hip over my stomach over the dip of my hip bone lower still until it settles squarely over me through
00:08:24the thin fabric already soaked with sweat and something else my whole body bows tight a sharp high
00:08:29sound rushes up my throat i bite down on my lip and swallow it second stare creak he bends his
00:08:35head
00:08:35nose against my scalding ear and through the soaked fabric palm his grinds down on me not soft not hard

00:22:19it
00:22:19smaller he takes one look and frowns get down he says why should i i dig my heels in though

00:22:42an
00:22:42afternoon not for the long line of summers after he doesn't argue one knee on the edge of the bed
00:22:47and
00:22:47he stretches up toward the unit i shrink into the corner but the bed's only so big as he leans
00:22:52the
00:22:53soaped gray tank brushes my shin heat sweat that sun-warmed smell of him all of it crashing over me
00:22:59at
00:22:59once his arm works a screw overhead the muscle bunching and releasing inches from my face i hold my
00:23:04breath i don't dare move no one's downstairs mom's still at the store the whole house is quiet just my
00:23:10sun-baked bedroom door shut sealed off from the rest of the world the thought sends a hotter prickle
00:23:15up my back up here door closed whatever happens no one below would know move over he says low his
00:23:22elbow pressing toward me there's nowhere to go his hip is against my drawn-up knees i'm wedged between
00:23:27him and the wall half of me pressed to his side i told you i can't get away from you
00:23:31he says glancing
00:23:32down his throat moving goes both ways he turns it a few times swears says the wiring's fried the whole
00:23:39thing has to come apart the minutes crawl the room's hot enough to swim in the two of us crammed
00:23:43into this scrap of space neither one talking my back's to the wall half of me against his sweat
00:23:47damp side the sweat glues us together skin to skin impossible to peel apart i should be disgusted
00:23:52i'm not i can feel the muscle in his side tighten with every turn of the screw that strength soaking
00:23:57through a thin film of sweat into my skin sinking low in my belly a picture rises before i can
00:24:02stop it
00:24:02if that hand weren't reaching for a screw overhead but sliding down my waist instead
00:24:06i kill the thought my face burns i hate him i think of the wedding day him standing there cold
00:24:11not even a hello two years ago i swore i'd never go soft for this man not once and right
00:24:17now my thighs
00:24:18are clamping together on their own the wet heat there is impossible to hide slick sticky mortifying
00:24:25it's the weather i lie to myself that's all just the heat irritated i try to shift to find room
00:24:32to
00:24:32breathe my knee moves and by accident grazes the inside of his thigh his hands stop the whole room
00:24:38goes still his voice drops to gravel it travels straight down my ear into my spine becca you'd
00:24:44better not move i don't listen my heart's slamming and something hotter than hate eggs me on i push out
00:24:51again elbow digging into his side on purpose the next second his free hand clamps down on my waist a
00:24:57hand
00:24:57big enough to span half of it too strong to fight and it hauls me back against him my gasp
00:25:02jams in my
00:25:02throat my back hits his scalding sweat damp chest his heartbeat through two thin layers of cotton slams
00:25:07into my spine once again
00:25:12what are you doing i keep my voice down and claw at the arm locked across my waist it's cast
00:25:18iron it
00:25:19doesn't give i should break free drive an elbow into him call him a creep bolt downstairs but my body
00:25:25betrays me it sinks into him fitting against every scalding inch of him i can feel his breathing turn
00:25:30rough his chest rising and downing at my back he grunts my elbow jabbing stomach again in the
00:25:35scamble with it i won't give in and i'm even more scared he sees through me so i open my
00:25:39mouth for
00:25:39another jab nothing comes out his free hand lifts and closes around the front of my throat not hard
00:25:44but sure steady tipping the back of my head into the hollow of his shoulder every drop of blood in
00:25:49me
00:25:49runs cold then floods back scalding two years of fighting of cutting each other to the bone and he
00:25:54never once touched me but now his palm cradles my throat his thumb on the pulse going wild there
00:25:59and i'm not afraid being held completely in his hand helpless in his grip it turns me to water i'm
00:26:04in the same hell you his mouth is at my ear his breath hot and horsey each word brended in
00:26:08but you

00:26:28long stretch
00:26:28i stay curled against him not daring to move his arm stays locked around my waist never once
00:26:34loosening and his thumb against the damp curve of my side moves slow up then down up then down
00:26:41every drag of it sends a current sliding down to the small of my back i clamp my thighs tighter
00:26:46and it
00:26:46only makes the want sharper i want more the thought scares me that's when downstairs the front door

01:09:25collarbone the muscle in his forearm bunching tight as he cranked a valve i press my ties together
01:09:32and hate myself the second i do i hate him i really do so what the hell is this
01:09:39downstairs the front door clicks open the stairs grown step by step under someone much heavier than me
01:09:47that's when i remember what i'm wearing i lunge for the shorts on my chair too late the door
01:09:52swings open samir work pants gray tank soaked through and clinging every line of his chest and
01:09:57stomach right there toolbox in hand the hair at his forehead damp and strands i should look away
01:10:02i don't my eyes dragged down on their own his sleep chest his tensed forearms and finally see
01:10:09something you like his voice comes out rough the corner of his mouth tipping up hot heat shoots all
01:10:14the way to my ears i rip the blanket up over myself who who's looking at you don't flatter yourself
01:10:19he doesn't look away the smirk only deepens his throat moves once
01:10:25the ac he steps in drops the toolbox and looks down at me curled up small where is it
01:10:33over there i jerk my chin at the unit in the corner and pull the blanket tighter he doesn't
01:10:37move right away first those heavy eyes drag over me then he comes the unit sits high on the wall
01:10:42above my headboard my bed right under it the room's small and a man his size only makes it smaller
01:10:47he takes one look and frowns get down he says why should i i dig my heels in though it
01:10:53sounds hollow
01:10:53the moment it's out two years and this is all i know how to do with him bristle jab push
01:10:59back
01:10:59mom remarried he and kevin moved in and the house stopped being just hers and mine i came home for
01:11:04the
01:11:04summer wanting some quiet and now i share even my breathing room with this stranger i can dodge him for
01:11:09an afternoon not for the long line of summers after he doesn't argue one knee on the edge of
01:11:14the bed and he stretches up toward the unit i shrink into the corner but the bed's only so big
01:11:18as he
01:11:19leans the soaked gray tank brushes my shin heat sweat that sun warmed smell of him all of it crashing
01:11:25over me at once his arm works a screw overhead the muscle bunching and releasing inches from my face
01:11:31i hold my breath i don't dare move no one's downstairs mom's still at the store the whole house is
01:11:36quiet
01:11:37just my sun-baked bedroom door shut sealed off from the rest of the world the thought sends a
01:11:42hotter prickle up my back up here door closed whatever happens no one below would know move
01:11:47over he says low his elbow pressing toward me there's nowhere to go his hip is against my drawn
01:11:52up knees i'm wedged between him and the wall half of me pressed to his side i told you i
01:11:57can't get away
01:11:58from you he says glancing down his throat moving goes both ways he turns it a few times swears says
01:12:05the
01:12:05wiring's fried the whole thing has to come apart the minutes crawl the room's hot enough to swim
01:12:09in the two of us crammed into this scrap of space neither one talking my back's to the wall half
01:12:13of
01:12:13me against his sweat damp side the sweat glues us together skin to skin impossible to peel apart
01:12:18i should be disgusted i'm not i can feel the muscle in his side tighten with every turn of the
01:12:23screw that
01:12:23strength soaking through a thin film of sweat into my skin sinking low in my belly a picture rises before
01:12:28i can stop it if that hand weren't reaching for a screw overhead but sliding down my waist instead
01:12:33i kill the thought my face burns i hate him i think of the wedding day him standing there cold
01:12:39not even a hello two years ago i swore i'd never go soft for this man not once and right
01:12:44now my thighs
01:12:45are clamping together on their own the wet heat there is impossible to hide slick sticky mortifying
01:12:52it's the weather i lie to myself that's all just the heat irritated i try to shift to find room
01:12:59to
01:12:59breathe my knee moves and by accident grazes the inside of his thigh his hands stop the whole room
01:13:05goes still his voice drops to gravel it travels straight down my ear into my spine becca you'd
01:13:12better not move i don't listen my heart's slamming and something hotter than hate eggs me on i push out
01:13:18again elbow digging into his side on purpose the next second his free hand clamps down on my waist a
01:13:24hand
01:13:24big enough to span half of it too strong to fight and it hauls me back against him my gasp
01:13:29jams in my
01:13:29throat my back hits his scalding sweat damp chest his heartbeat through two thin layers of cotton slams
01:13:34into my spine once again
01:13:39what are you doing i keep my voice down and claw at the arm locked across my waist it's cast
01:13:45iron it
01:13:46doesn't give i should break free drive an elbow into him call him a creep bolt downstairs but my body
01:13:52betrays me it sinks into him fitting against every scalding inch of him i can feel his breathing turn
01:13:57rough his chest rising and downing at my back he grunts my elbow jabbing stomach again in the
01:14:02scamble with it i won't give in and i'm even more scared he sees through me so i open my
01:14:06mouth for
01:14:06another jab nothing comes out his free hand lifts and closes around the front of my throat not hard
01:14:11but sure steady tipping the back of my head into the hollow of his shoulder every drop of blood in
01:14:16me
01:14:16runs cold then floods back scalding two years of fighting of cutting each other to the bone and he
01:14:21never once touched me but now his palm cradles my throat his thumb on the pulse going wild there
01:14:26and i'm not afraid being held completely in his hand helpless in his grip it turns me to water i'm
01:14:31in the same hell you his mouth is at my ear his breath hot and horsey each word brended in
01:14:35but you
01:14:36are going to hold still his breath fans against the side of my face no more squirming no more little
01:14:42whimpers making it worse the hand on my throat tightens a fraction you hear me i try to nod only
01:14:48then
01:14:49does he ease off i gulp for air my heart wild enough to leap out of my chest for a
01:14:55long stretch
01:14:55i stay curled against him not daring to move his arm stays locked around my waist never once
01:15:01loosening and his thumb against the damp curve of my side moves slow up then down up then down
01:15:08every drag of it sends a current sliding down to the small of my back i clamp my thighs tighter
01:15:13and it
01:15:13only makes the want sharper i want more the thought scares me that's when downstairs the front door
01:15:20clicks open i'm home mom's voice floats up over the rustle of grocery bags becca did your brother go
01:15:27up to fix your ac his thumb stops no no he didn't i call down forcing my voice into its
01:15:35usual annoyance
01:15:36he's probably off slacking somewhere again a beat of quiet below then from below
01:15:43let me come up and look at it you can't sit in this heat the staircase creaks taking mom's weight
01:15:48one step my blood goes to ice i claw at his arm
01:15:56let go she's coming up let go of me
01:16:01he doesn't worse the hand that's been resting at my waist slides painfully slow down the line of my
01:16:08hip over my stomach over the dip of my hip bone lower still until it settles squarely over me through
01:16:14the thin fabric already soaked with sweat and something else my whole body bows tight a sharp
01:16:19high sound rushes up my throat i bite down on my lip and swallow it second stare creak he bends
01:16:25his
01:16:25head nose against my scalding ear and through the soaked fabric palm his grinds down on me not soft
01:16:31not hard once soap like this he breathes slow and filthy and still lying that no one came up
01:16:38it comes out a plea my voice in pieces please my mom his thumb presses again dragging a winner out
01:16:47of me
01:16:47before i can swallow it the hand doesn't move from where it is scared now third step mom's voice is
01:16:54closer becca why is the door locked from the inside he looks down at me held completely in his hand
01:17:02every
01:17:03breath a luxury now his eyes lit with something that makes me dizzy he leans to my ear word by
01:17:09word
01:17:10another grind of his palm dead slow we let your mom see exactly what you look like right now
