They’ve never touched like this before.
She knows that it has always been an option, an offer extended on the day they had first laid eyes on each other. Mutual attraction and respect, understanding and camaraderie.
He’s dying now, no longer safe. She can feel the alien death traveling through his blood beneath her grasping fingers.
She weeps soundlessly against his shoulder, tears trickling down her face to crawl past her lips, open and dry from the desert sun. Their frantic moans mingle together, Carlos’ fingers denting the flesh of her hips. He murmurs in her ear, a continual string of words, soft and harsh and everything he’s ever wanted to say to her but couldn’t until now. She does not say a word.
Her body tenses; his follows a moment later.
Carlos eventually withdraws, fastens his pants, and helps her shaking hands pull her clothes together. His lips move to speak, but she shakes her head, placing a finger over his mouth. She replaces the digit with her own lips, bruising force on both parties sending a hint of copper down her throat.
It’s not enough, but it’s all they have. They break apart to their separate vehicles, moving onward, moving forward, because that is all that is left.
