'Safe' isn't a feeling she's terribly familiar with. It got shredded when she was shot for the first time at the age of 12, and her life after that only stomped it further into the ground.
But....she can believe that it's true, for these precious moments. The moments when their hearts beat as one, their very selves mingle in ways human language has not yet invented the proper words to describe.
She's floating somewhere between asleep and awake, adrift in the sea of their selves. The feel of his body close like this is very nice though, nice enough for the embers of desire to begin, ever so slightly, to stir.
