Night Took Quote by Julio-Alexi Genao
““I’d removed all but my underclothes, that night I took you home. Took off all the drab corporate synthetics as if stripping my armor to uncover the vulnerable man I was underneath it. The man who needed to be near you. I’d pressed my back into your solid length, eyes wet as I fell asleep. That’s why I was calm.””
