Craig stood slowly and took Peg's hand, moving with her to the stairs and silently down them. The sound of the rain above drowning the drips of water that fell from his body. He opened the door at the bottom, almost sure that police could be there worried about an assault considering the noises that had come from the roof. The storm had done its job, masking their howls and signs of pleasure.<br/><br/>Quickly he walked to his apartment, hand still in Peg's as the evidence of their meeting feel from his body with the water from the storm. He opened the door and slipped inside as quiet as a ghost, glad there was no audience to their entry. Once Peg was safely inside with him he locked the door and led her towards the shower, stopping quickly, turning, and kissing the woman again. His hands cupped her face, holding her so that he might thank her for everything. For being with him, for taking him. For making him want to feel more alive than he had in a very long time.<br/><br/>His lips met her, tasted her once again, Sampled the soft flesh as his tongue teased her with gently licks. he inhaled, trying to steal her breath, trying again to make her knees week and her body melt to his, this time with softness instead of his body taking hers.<br/><br/><em>Thank you</em><br/><br/>His voice was quiet, and was only a little louder than the final drops of water that fell from their bodies.<br/><br/><em>A shower and then I will take Enach and Freddie with me to get something worth eating. The water heater is large, we can take a while if you wish.</em><br/><br/>With that he brought her to the bath and bent over, turning the water on to fall into the old style 4 legged tub. His skin has a slight sheen to it from the residue of the rain. Peg could make out the burn scars and also what looked like talon marks on his flanks, scars that until now had been hidden from her sight.
