Prompt: 031 - Sunrise
Sweat, slick, heat, breath hot despite night air, pale bark scraping his shoulder, sharp pebbles beneath his spine. A girl with more strength than he had expected, especially in her hips. Desperate thing, grasping at life, taking her last chances. Desperation is a powerful distraction, an effective aphrodisiac.
“This doesn’t change anything,” he rasps.
“I didn’t think it would,” she scowls and bears down on him again, flushed, tireless. It has been a long night and it is drawing to a close. He groans and shudders and lets her ride him as he watches the sun rise over her shoulder.

It would always be a part of their life together. He had learned to live with it. Any other man would have called him a fool for complaining but it was not any other man’s cross to bear.
It came upon her at random, not always inconvenient, but often enough for him to notice. Her hand would slip around his waist. Her toes would trail up his leg. “Make love to me,” she would whisper, and he would have to do exactly that. At any other time, she would wait until his desk was clear, until the dishes were done, until he was actually awake. If the time was not right for him, she might be satisfied with just a helping hand or even a thigh to ride.
But not when her voice grew those husky undertones, when her fingers tightened on his body with desperate insistence. When she mounted him, demanding, and her body thrummed with that shining.
It was the simplest thing to give her what she wanted, even if at any other time she agreed with him. There was no need for it with three healthy children of their own and even an adopted one into the bargain. But Gaia was slow to understand, or perhaps desperately wary of how few a number three was, considering. So Sephiroth surrendered everything else when Aeris bore that telltale glow, lost himself to the intoxicating scent and worshipped his shining goddess of the lifestream when she hungered for his seed.

In the beginning, there was sex and it was good. There was plenty of it and that was all they needed.
Then came the arguments. It was only to be expected. All couples fought sooner or later. Fight, make up, argue, compromise, stab, hostile takeover attempt, death, reconciliation, the usual pattern. Well, maybe not the stabbing part but it was the way relationships went until the final break up.
Except because the final stage didn’t seem to be coming. Their arguments grew tamer and less frequent. They compromised with hardly any discussion and even took each other into consideration. Time was creeping up on them and somehow they had learned to live with each other. The sex was still damned good, but their talk had gone from mornings after to next week, next month, next year. He learned to cook what she liked. She did his laundry.
One day they caught themselves looking at furnishings and appliances, planning décor for rooms they did not even have. There was nothing he could do but go ring shopping. Things had gone on too long between them even for her friends to object. And just like that, they had a home. Talk of family did not repulse him at all. He even started picking names.
Forever slithered by and caught him years later as he sat on the back step watching his grandchildren play. It had not been what he wanted when he was young. Far from it. But it was damned good.
