posited herself on the bed; however; leaving the chair for Marty。
〃I have to talk to you;〃 she said。
Marty laid down the book he'd chosen。 On the cover a naked woman; her skin a fluorescent green; emerged from an egg on a twin…sunned planet。 Carys said: 〃Do you know what's going on?〃 〃Going on? What do you mean?〃 〃Haven't you felt anything odd in the house?〃 〃Like what?〃 Her mouth had found its favorite shape; corners turned down in exasperation。
〃I don't know 。 。 。 it's difficult to describe。〃 〃Try。〃 She hesitated; like a diver at the edge of a high board; then took the plunge。
〃Do you know what a sensitive is?〃 He shook his head。
〃It's someone who can pick up waves。 Thought waves。〃 〃Mind reading。〃 〃In a way。〃 He gave her a nonmittal look。 〃Is it something you can do?〃 he said。
〃Not do。 I don't do anything。 It's more like it's done to me。〃 Marty leaned back in the chair; flummoxed。
〃It's as though everything gets sticky。 I can't shake it off。 I hear people talking without them moving their lips。 Most of it's meaningless: just rubbish。〃 〃And it's what they're thinking?〃 〃Yes。〃 He couldn't find much to say in response; except that he doubted her; and that wasn't what she wanted to hear。 She'd e for reassurance; hadn't she?
〃That's not all;〃 she said。 〃I see shapes sometimes; around people's bodies。 Vague shapes 。 。 。 like a kind of light。〃 Marty thought of the man at the fence; of how he'd bled light; or seemed to。 He didn't interrupt her; however。
〃The point is; I feel things other people don't。 I don't think it's particularly clever of me; or anything like that。 I just do it。 And the last few weeks I've felt something in the house。 I get odd thoughts in my head; out of nowhere; I dream 。 。 。 horrible things。〃 She halted; aware that her description was getting vaguer; and she risked what little credibility this monologue had if she went on。
〃The lights you see?〃 Marty said; backtracking。
〃Yes。〃 〃I saw something like them。〃 She leaned forward。
〃When?〃 〃The man who broke in。 I thought I saw light ing from him。 From his wounds; I suppose; and his eyes and his mouth。〃 Even as he finished the sentence he was shrugging it off as if fearful of contagion。 〃I don't know;〃 he said。 〃I was drunk。〃 〃But you saw something。〃
〃…Yes;〃 he conceded; without pleasure。
She got up and crossed to the window。 Like father like daughter; he thought: window freaks; both of them。 As she stared out across the lawn…Marty never drew the curtains…he had ample opportunity to look at her。
〃Something 。 。 。〃 she said; 〃。 。 。 something。〃 The grace of her crooked leg; the displaced weight of her buttocks; her face; reflected in the cold glass; so intent on this mystery: all enthralled him。
〃That's why he doesn't talk to me any longer;〃 she said。
〃Papa?〃 〃He knows I can feel what he's thinking: and he's frightened。〃 The observation was a cul…de…sac: she started tapping her foot with irritation; her breath ghosting the window intermittently。 Then; out of the blue; she said: 〃Did you know you had a breast fixation?〃 〃What?〃 〃You look at them all the time。〃 〃Do I Hell!〃 〃And you're a liar。〃 He stood up; not knowing what he intended to do or say until the words were out。 At last; smothered in confusion; only the truth seemed appropriate。
〃I like looking at you。〃 He touched her shoulder。 At this point; if they chose; the game could stop; tenderness was a breath away。 They could take the opportunity or let it be: resume the repartee; or discard it。 The moment lay between them; awaiting instructions。
〃Babe;〃 she said。 〃Don't shake。〃 He moved a half…step closer and kissed the back of her neck。 She turned and returned the kiss; her hand moving up his spine to cup the back of his head; as if to sense the weight of his skull。
〃At last;〃 she said; when they broke。 〃I was beginning to think you were too much of a gentleman。〃 They tumbled onto the bed; and she rolled over to straddle his hips。 Without hesitation she reached to fumble with the belt of his bathrobe。 He was half…hard beneath her; and unfortably trapped。 Self…conscious; too。 She pulled the bathrobe open; and ran her palms across his chest。 His body was solid without being heavy; silk hair spread out from his sternum and down the central groove of his abdomen; coarsening as it descended。 She sat up a little to release the robe from his groin。 His cock; freed; flipped from four to noon。 She stroked its underside: it responded in gulps。
〃Pretty;〃 she said。
He was getting used to her approbation now。 Her calm was infectious。 He half…sat up; perching on his elbows to get a better look at her poised above him。 She was intent on his erection; putting her index finger into her mouth and transferring a film of saliva to his cock; running fingertips up and down in fluid; lazy motions。 He squirmed with pleasure。 A rash of heat had appeared on his chest; further signal;; if any were needed; of his arousal。 His cheeks burned too。
〃Kiss me;〃 he asked。
She leaned forward and met his mouth。 They collapsed back onto the bed。 His hands felt for the bottom of her sweater; and started to ease it up; but she stopped him。
〃No;〃 she murmured into his mouth。
〃。 。 。 want to see you 。 。 。〃 he said。
She sat back up。 He was looking up at her; perplexed。
〃Not so fast;〃 she said; and raised the sweater far enough to expose her belly and breasts to him; without taking the garment off。 Marty took in her body like a blind man granted sight: the dusting of gooseflesh; the unexpected fullness of her。 His hands toured where his eyes went; pressing her bright skin; describing spirals on her nipples; watching the weight of her breasts ride on her rib cage。。 Mouth now followed eye and hand: he wanted to bathe her with his tongue。 She pulled his head against her。 Through the mesh of his hair his scalp gleamed a baby pink。 She craned to kiss it but couldn't reach; and slid her hand down instead to take hold of his cock。 〃Be careful;〃 he murmured as she stroked。 There was wetness in her palm; she relinquished her hold。
Gently; he coaxed her over and they fell side by side across the bed。 She pushed the robe off his neck; while his fingers worked at the button at the top of her jeans。 She made no attempt to assist; liking the look of concentration he wore。 It would be so good to be pletely naked with him: skin to skin。 But this wasn't the time to risk that。 Suppose he saw the bruises and the needle marks; and rejected her。 It would be unbearable。
He had successfully undone the button and unzipped the fly; and now his hands were in her jeans; sliding under the top of her panties。 There was urgency in him; and much as she loved to watch his intent; she aided the undressing now; raising her hips from the bed and sliding the jeans and panties down; exposing her body from nipples to knee。 He moved over her; leaving a trail of saliva to mark his way; licking at her navel; and lower now; face flushed; his tongue in her; not expert exactly; but eager to learn; nuzzling out the places that pleased her by the sound of her sighs。
He slid the jeans lower; and when she didn't resist; all the way off。 Her panties followed; and she closed her eyes; blotting out everything but his exploration。 In his eagerness he displayed the instincts of a cannibal; nothing her body fed him would be rejected; he pressed as deep as anatomy allowed。
Something itched at the back of her neck; but she ignored it; too concerned with this other sport。 He looked up from her groin; with doubt on his face。
〃Go on;〃 she said。
She wriggled up the bed; inviting him into her。 The doubt on his face persisted。
〃What's wrong?〃 〃No protection;〃 he said。
〃Forget it。〃 He needed no second invitation。 Her position; not lying beneath him but half…sitting; allowed her to watch his sweet display; pressing the root of his cock until the head darkened and glossed; before entering her slowly; almost reverentially。 Now he relinquished hold of himself; and put his hands on the bed to either side of her; his back arched; a crescent within a crescent; as his body weight carried him in。 His lips parted; and his tongue emerged to lap at her eyes。
She moved to meet him; pressing her hips up to his。 He sighed: frowned。
Oh; Jesus; she thought; he's e。 But his eyes opened again still raging; and his strokes; after the initial threat of mistiming; were even and slow。
Again; her neck irritated her; it felt more than an itch。 It was a bite; a drill hole。 She tried to ignore it; but the sensation only intensified as her body gave way to the moment。 Marty was too intent on their locked anatomies to register her disfort。 His breath was jagged; hot on her face。 She tried to move; hoping the ache was just the tension of this position。
〃Marty 。 。 。〃 she breathed; 〃roll over。〃 He wasn't sure of this maneuver at first; but once he was on his back; and she sitting on him; he caught her rhythm easily。 He began to climb again: dizzy with the height。
The pain at her neck persisted; but she thrust it out of focus。 She bent forward; her face six inches above Marty's; and let saliva fall from her mouth into his; a thread of bubbles that …he received with an open grin; pushing up into her as deep as he could go and holding himself there。
Suddenly; something moved in her。 Not Marty。 Something or somebody else; fluttering in her system。 Her concentration faltered; her heart too。 She lost focus on where she was and what she was。 Another set of eyes seemed to look through hers: momentarily she shared their owner's vision。 She saw sex as depravity; a raw and bestial exchange。
〃No;〃 she said; trying to cancel the nausea that had suddenly risen in her。
Marty opened his eyes to slits; taking her 〃no〃 as a mand to postpone the finish。
〃I'm trying; babe 。 。 。〃 he said; grinning。 〃Just don't move。〃 She couldn't grasp what he meant at first: he was a thousand miles from her; lying below in a foul sweat; wounding her against her wishes。 〃OK?〃 he breathed; holding on until it almost hurt。 He seemed to swell in her。 The sensation drove the double vision out of her head。 The other viewer shrank away behind her eyes; revolted by the fullness and the flesh
