“You can’t be serious Gerard.”
But Tabitha quickly gets in and motions her hand for me to follow. Against my better judgment I climb in and the boot is quickly closed. It is very cramped and dark, our bodies are ushed right up against each other. Her breasts are pressing into my chest and her scent is easily picked up. Then our foreheads touch.
I try not to think about sex. In fact, thinking of anything else will do.
I hear the ignition and our journey begins. We alternate going over flat surfaces and very bumpy ones, banging our heads together.
At some point, she clasps my hand. Her skin is soft and warm.
All I want is to kiss her. If only it was more comfortable. She is so perfect. The car comes to an abrupt halt and I hear the sounds of footsteps. She lets go of my hand. The boot opens and we are bathed in light.
“Alright people, here we are. Let’s hope this goes well.”
I gingerly get out followed by Tabitha. There is a building in front of that stretches up into the sky to the other side of the habitat. It has no beginning and no end.
