Alone Together (Audio Script)

Stories

Okay… this here… and that one…

Alright, so… don’t laugh if this doesn’t work right away. I’ve never done this before so let’s see how it goes…

Shoot. Uh… maybe I need… more kindling?

Can you hand me some of that?

Thanks.

Okay, let me try…

Sorry I know it’s cold out here.

I’ll get this going soon.

Come on, come on…

Yes! Okay… put some more kindling on here to make sure it stays.

Okay, I think that should be good.

Thank you, internet.

And thank you for helping me arrange the logs in such a nice little tent. I think this should keep us going for a while now.

Mmm, okay, I’m coming in.

Make some room on the blanket.

There we go.

And can you pass me my drink?

Thanks.

Wow, this is really nice.

Feels so good to be outside… in the fresh air, middle of nowhere… just the two of us.

Wow, it’s so clear out here… the stars are so bright.

Look… right directly above us and over to the right a little.

Do you see those three stars right next to each other?

Kind of arcing down?

That’s Virgo.

Can you see it?

Here, let me show you. Give me your hand.

See the Big Dipper? Yeah, the thing that looks like a little shovel. Okay, follow that across a little…

And that bright one there, that’s Arcturus. And if we keep going this way… that one, it’s a little brighter… that’s Spica.

Sorry, I get a little invested in this stuff. I listen to this astronomy podcast and it’s really got me interested in the universe and what’s all out there. It’s really crazy if you stop to think about it.

Yeah, it’s like… okay, here, lie down with me.

Yeah, on your back.

Just lie down on the blanket and look up.

Isn’t it crazy just how big the universe is… and how much of it we don’t understand.

There’s so much to learn… to explore.

And then if you think about… how small we are in comparison.

All the way down here… with so much of that up there.

Yeah, it is kind of exciting. If you think about the time we have here… wanting to make the most of it.

That’s one of the things I love most about you. You’re so good at making the most of life… encouraging me to try new things, to take more spontaneous camping trips like this.

God, I’m so lucky to be here with you.

Sorry, I know that’s, like, beyond cheesy… I just… with the stars and the fire… it’s all kind of really romantic, don’t you think?

Come here.

I want you to be closer to me.

I love having you so close, feeling your warm skin… listening to the sounds of the forest.

This is seriously just so… perfect.

I love just dragging my fingertips up and down your arms… just like this…

Know what else I love?

Your eyes.

God, the first time I met you, I swear, I lost my breath a little.

You were just ordering your coffee… the same one you always do.

I thought I had the worst luck with that stupid café job. But the day we met… I wouldn’t trade that for anything.

What was I thinking when we met?

What, like what did I think of you, you mean?

Well… like I said, it was your eyes that really took me off guard. So beautiful… and the way your whole face lights up when you smile.

Hmm, what else?

Okay, well I remember the way you bit your lip a little as I complimented your necklace.

Yeah, the one you’re still wearing, right now.

You told me it was your grandmother’s and I remember thinking about how it suited you, I’d never have guessed it wasn’t yours.

Oh, someone’s getting a little energetic, aren’t they?

No, no… I didn’t say stop.

I like that, too… you know I do.

So… something else I really like… about you…

Is the way you sound when you… well, you know.

Yeah… I love making you feel good, because the way you sound… the way your body moves… it’s so intoxicating.

Like… when I touch you… right here.

The way you react…

I love it so much.

Yeah… and the way you can’t help but lean into me… to get closer…

Do you remember our first date… what happened once we got back to my place?

Yeah… god, I couldn’t help myself.

I was so nervous the entire time… but then as soon as I kissed you… and knew how much you wanted this too…

I just couldn’t hold back anymore.

Come here…

Your lips are so soft.

Yeah, you can… I like it when you do that.

That feels so good…

How are you so good at this?

Yeah, take my hand.

I want you to guide me… show me what to do.

Yeah? Right there?

I know you like it right there.

Yeah, it’s okay. There’s no one else out here for miles… we can be as loud… and as free as we want.

Wait, what are you? Why are you standing up?

We were so comfy and—

Oh my god, you’re not really going to…

Yep, okay, you’re being quite bold tonight.

You’re crazy, girl. How are you not freezing?

Well, I did say that.

What, you want me to—you want me to join you?

Oh, hell no, I’m staying down here in this blanket, nice and warm, thank you.

Oh, come on.

What did you just call me?

Oh no you didn’t!

Okay, I’ll show you how boring I am.

How about this… here we go… don’t need that…

There! Are you happy now?

You know what it is kind of nice… freeing, actually.

Mmm, yeah, come here.

Oh my god, you’re covered in goosebumps.

Let me warm you up…

Yeah… let’s go back to what we were doing before… why don’t I focus somewhere else now…

Like right here… I know how much you like it when I do this…

I know everything you like.

Mm, yeah, that’s right, I do.

I know you.

Prove it?

Okay, well let’s see… if I start here… and move down…

I know that will drive you crazy.

Yeah, that’s right.

Right here…

This sensitive spot… right here…

yeah… and then a little lower…

Yeah… I know how sensitive you are, how much you love when I play with your chest.

So beautiful… your skin is so warm.

Does that feel good, sweetheart?

Yeah?

See… I told you I know you.

I know this body… and how to make it feel good.

I know your moans… and how to make them louder… and louder.

Hm? You want me to keep going?
