They both lay down together, arm in arm breathing very hard.
Eventually the breathing eased and soon they were just together with her arms wrapped around her.
He very gently traced his finger against her back and soon the only thing they could hear was the water flowing down the water fall.
The moonlight was down on them and the cave was surprisingly very warm that they barely felt any cold at their naked bodies.
She just lay there hearing his heart beat and for a split second wondering if he heard hers.
She never wanted to move away from this moment.
She wanted to be here for as long as possible.
It felt safe, it felt secure to be lying next to him and away from her troubles.
She wasn't sure if he was asleep, and then she felt him circling on her back again.
She relaxed and held him closer to her.
She held his hand on her shoulder and then he rubbed her back.
