The car pulled smoothly in front of their current destination. A soft smile and giggle seemed loud in the enclosed vehicle as she looked out the window. A hand reached out to touch and tease along the top of his thigh, her approval of their playground showing. The tall wrought iron gates stood in the middle of the equally tall walls, the designs echoing back to another period of time in the lines of there beauty. Turning back from the view and sliding across the bench seat of the car, leans up to place a kiss upon his cheek. The answering arching of a brow is coupled by the appearance of a slight smirk upon his lips. Catching her lower lip between her teeth, slides one leg over his own and slips between the steering wheel and his body, straddling his lap. Her tongue darts out quickly to lick the tip of his nose which brings a chuckle. As her hand opens his door, she whispers, “Hide and seek….. your it.”
She is out of the car leaving the door open before he can even dispute the fact, even if he wanted to. A light pressure to the gates allows her admittance to the grounds beyond. The fog that had been noticeable while they drove from the club now seemed denser as she jogged slowly threw the midnight darkness. As with so many things with him, this too was a first yet just as exciting and trilling as everything else they had tried so far. Shadows fell deep upon the already dark ground, some large some small. Cemetery monuments came in all shapes and sizes these days. Taking a side path slowed to look at some of the carved statues that she could see. Angels reaching to the sky in ever silent and still in pleas to the Gods for mercy on those below. While others of their winged brethren stooped doubled over or lay prostate in what seemed to be either pain or sorrow or both to those who they stood over. Each was something to wonder over and delight in how fine the work had been done.
She could not have heard the gate open yet her eyes turned to where she just made out the beginning of the path from where she stood. He ghosted like some dark specter as he walked, looking this way and that every so often, taking his time in the game. As soon as he slipped from sight, she ran. Unfamiliar with the layout made the chase more chaotic, almost dangerous. She had no idea if she was running right back toward him or if she was becoming hopelessly lost.
