Excerpt
“Come
on,” Julian says. “Let’s dance.”
The
place is massive, like a warehouse, and packed with people. A techno
dance hall; rhythm is blasting from huge speakers; the smoky air is
cut with flashing multicolored lasers; there’s an elevated DJ stand
up front and above this a video screen shows a mix of people dancing
at beaches, by pools, on boats, in clubs, on top of bars. Julian
follows me out to the dance floor and we’re caught in a wave of
noise and motion. He’s behind me with his hands on my hips. I move
against him, getting swept up in the beat and the dancing is around
us and up on the screen and the music is like a great pulse thrumming
inside me, my hands drift down, over his and he starts kissing my
neck, I push my rear harder against him, his grip on me tightens and
the music squeezes through small spaces and lasers flash through the
haze and the bodies around us give off heat and we’re filmed in
sweat and surging sound and my head is thrown back on Julian’s
shoulder, and still the music and lights and smoke and motion, the
sounds flip and whirl together.
By
the time we reach the car, I’m hot and loose and my ears are
ringing; the ride home is a blur of longing; finally, we stumble into
Julian’s room. “I want you,” he says.
