Forbidden Fruit

I gaze upon thee, my forbidden fruit.  Fresh from the shower, your skin supple, smooth. How I long to taste, to caress your surface with my lips. I reach for you, hesitantly ~ although I crave you, dare I take the chance?

A touch, a gentle slide of my finger across your delicate skin ~ feeling every detail as if reading by braille. So inviting, yet... Thoughts of morals cross my mind, calling out from faces unseen. Words of caution, words telling me I shouldn't touch you ~ that even though your beauty temps me, I must refrain...

Hesitation turns to frustration. Dare I reach out, taking you in my hands? Should I risk placing my lips on your waiting, bare skin, still wet from the shower? Probably not... Questions without definite answers (or rather answers I do not wish to hear), the barrage of thought is overwhelming!

Reciting a rebellious statement, "Rules were meant to be broken," I reach for you, pulling you close without further hesitation. I can smell your sweet fragrance, like delicious nectar waiting to be devoured. I breathe in your essence, my heart beating rapidly, knowing I've crossed a line ~ if I take one more step, there is no return... Lust consumes me and placing my lips to your skin... I bite.

 

 

Author notes

"mood ring turned red"

Prompt: Desire

It's about wanting to eat an apple too close to dinner time.  The morals I spoke of were along the lines of "Don't snack right before dinner, you'll lose your appetite!"  The shower refers to the apple being washed under the faucet.

    Aw, very succulant writing. The thoughts that my mind did conjure up...a riddle perhaps, but very delightfully interesting to say the least.

    beautifully done,

    Thank God it wasn't a Twinkie! Can you imagine? A soggy Twinkie after a 'shower' has no appeal whatsoever.
    Very well done. I love that you put a spin on the prompt and made it dizzy as hell. THIS is what I was looking for. Love, Lane
