This Has To Stop

Saphy decided that she liked kissing. Especially kissing Kenneth.

Kenneth kept the kiss gentle.

Saphy broke away shyly for air.

Kenneth smiled, stroking her hair back. "Breath through your nose next time..."

"Oh shuh," Saphy smiled, taking off her glasses.

Kenneth smiled back, kissing her nose.

Saphy rolled her head sideways a little so she could see the stars.

Kenneth smiled.

"Cassiopeia," murmured Saphy.

"bight..."

She traced the W shape with her finger.
"I just know the consollolation."

"Do you like it?"

"I like all the stars. I like the way their names sound..."

"They're romantic..."

"Everything is romantic," Saphy said softly.

Kenneth laughed.

Saphy moved back, brushing snowflakes from her lips and eyelashes.

Kenneth pulled her close.

Saphy lay still on her back, looking at Kenneth.

"You know, in the old days, seduction was defined as persuading someone to sleep with you on promise of marriage..." she murmured.

Kenneth laughed. "Are you hinting or something?"

"Lots of the stars are to do with Greek myths... and there was a lot of seductin in those days. Hades seduced his niece."

"He kidnapped her as well..."

"Yes, he did that. And married her."

"He was infatuated with her..."

"Are you hinting at something?" Saphy asked, raising an eyebrow slightly.
