Claire and Jamie finally parted their lips when they had run out of breath. They each took a deep inhale and paused, defying the laws of physics by not returning to one another. The reality of where they were hit—the team was still on the field, but soon there would be stragglers. They sighed each other’s names, “Jamie…” and “Claire..” coming out in unison, and chuckled at the ridiculousness of it.
“Mebbe we should,” Jamie cleared his throat before continuing, “pause fer now?”
Claire started to tuck one of her errant tendrils behind her ear, but Jamie finished the job for her, lingering on her cheek before letting his hand fall. “Yes, I think we should, considering…” she gestured to the lockers surrounding them.
Usually, I start the work and finish it without any interruptions. This time first I had issues with my back, then I painted many other arts in between. 😀 And I have the feeling it took me weeks to finish this scene. In reality it is not so. But in any case I don't regret a single minute. And I hope you will like it. 💖
