2006 Birthday Drabbles
Gandalfs apprentice's 2006 Birthday Gifts: 5. Weakness - by Vilwarin
My hand wanders up and down your body, feeling unfamiliar terrain.
The wrong body
I know it and yet I am here. Nobody must know of this, of my moment of weakness.
Forbidden!
What would they say if they knew?
Shameful, lie-between!
I am betrothed to the woman I love, you are married, but still... I lie with you and know not how this came to be.
Doubly shameful, he is a man!
And where now is honour?
I sit up and pull the blankets around myself. My eyes lock with yours and a wordless understanding passes between us not a word.
