A Hitchhiker's Dream

The grass breaks from the Earth as my hand clutches it.
Gravel wedges itself under my nails and in the crevices that make up my fingerprints.

My lips poke out from breathing so hard; so fast.
The lungs I use start to burn while it tries to wrap it's invisible arms around the oxygen like a desperate woman begging her married lover not to leave.

I try to scream, to cry out.
It feels too good, oh god, too fucking good.

I'd been in his car only a few hours. We were both running away.

Maybe my dirty feet on the dash, thunder thighs spread with hand-cut jean shorts riding up was too much for him. Perhaps he found me beautiful...

Probing questions and "accidental" slips of the hand on both of our parts lead to my current position.

I hated sticky, fumbled, interrupted sex. Simply hated it, but this wasn't sex. This was fucking. Him claiming me as his forever; letting me know that I'll never feel this again without him.

"I'll never let you go. Never."

A tear leaves my eye as I come too, but not because of the amazing feeling. It's because of this man. This...stranger. He gave me what I wanted. Somewhere to belong.
