--- Belong ---

I feel the missed beat. His hands still, his breath holds. It feels like a new decision, a new commitment. But it's too late for that, for me and for him. The moment of deciding happened long ago.

We've been untouching lovers for too long.

There's no going back; he sees it, finally. He lets me in. I can touch and taste. I can show him this is how things are supposed to be. My body aches for him, for all of him.

His stare is devotion. Naked, fearless, alive, safe.

Come close, my love. This is where we belong.

I'm trying to find the right words to describe how this feels to me!! It feels like Beth has left herself naked emotionally for him to see. It feels so intimate and complete, her giving herself to him!!!! You are such an excellent writer that most of the time you leave me feeling stunned and so full of emotion from the stories you create and this one is no exception!!!!


mitzie

Wow. I'm immensely touched that you dedicated this to me!

Oh, I do love Beth... she's got her demons and her failings, but with one notable exception, she's been steadfast in her belief and faith in Mick. That's what comes through so strongly here, and what I love about it.

I can show him this is how things are supposed to be.

Yes.

I. Have. No. Words.

mitzie, that's such a lovely comment. I'm really touched - and I hope you know how much I appreciate it. Thank you.

alle, I'm delighted and relieved you liked it. I agree with you about Beth's steadfastness (and I choose to ignore the end of Sonata ) and I love to imagine Mick finally getting that.

francis, I'm assuming that's a compliment??

Red

You are truly amazing!

In just a few words, you so beautifully capture the essence, the single-minded dedication that so characterized MickBeth.

Everything you have written is outstanding, but this is really amazing.

Thank you!

Thanks so much, jen.

Gorgeous...just gorgeous Red...I love this line:

We've been untouching lovers for too long.

Thanks, jv. There's just something inevitable about Mick and Beth - they were lovers long before either of them knew it.

I've been gone from the board for a wee while and I'm so pleased I got to read this little gem.

Being such a fan of Beth I just adore this Red. This piece says everything about what I love about these two and why I love them so much.

The moment of deciding happened long ago.

We've been untouching lovers for too long.

I can't tell you how much I love these two little sentences.

I love what you said in your response to jv - it's inevitable. There was just no stopping these two - it was going to happen and I totally went along with them.

Love Mick/Beth and love this gem for highlighting so beautifully why I love them so.

I love the "untouching lovers" line... that kinda captures most of that romance, the part that we saw on screen, doesn't it????

You always come up with the big, wonderful line, Sweetie... I am, as usual, in awe.

And I hope you're having fun...

coco, Grace, thank you both, you wonderful women.

The awe is all mine.

(And Paris is wonderful - coco, I hope you have a marvellous time at BBM.)

I so agree, and you've managed -- again -- to jot that point down in such simple, plain language that is beautiful and romantic and emotional all at the same time. Some smart muse has sprinkled you with magic writer's pixie dust and I hope they keep doing it because we are the lucky beneficiaries of it.

Pixie dust. I love that. Thank you, sweetie.

Red

Wow, I love this piece, sensual, profound, inspiring and gorgeous

I love this...

My body aches for him, for all of him.
