Charles Dera, Uma Stone

The last notes of the jazz standard faded into the humid night air, leaving only the sound of our mingled breath. Charles’s hand, resting on the small of my back, felt like a brand of both fire and ice, his thumb tracing a slow, absent circle that sent shivers across my skin. Across the room, I saw my husband offer Uma a fresh glass of wine, his laughter a familiar sound that now seemed to come from a great distance. Her eyes, dark pools of quiet understanding, met mine over the rim of her glass, and a silent, terrifying agreement passed between us. When Charles’s fingers gently laced with mine, the world narrowed to that single point of contact, a delicate key turning in a lock I hadn't known was closed. The scent of his cologne, mixed with the night-blooming jasmine, was an intoxicating promise of the unknown. I let my head tilt slightly, my cheek nearly brushing his shoulder, feeling the solid warmth of him before we had even truly touched. A profound, aching vulnerability washed over me, so intense it threatened to buckle my knees. This was not a betrayal, but a terrifying and beautiful leap into a new kind of truth. In the heavy, expectant silence, I felt a long-dormant part of my soul finally stir awake, yearning and unafraid.
