Reaching up to cup Derek's head as they walk, Venus tilts her head to the side as they walk, feeling especially the sway of her hips, which feel looser with the desire she feels heating them.

Even though her apartment is quiet, she shuts the door anyway, for that extra bit of privacy. She snaps on one scarf-covered lamp to add a warm light to the room, then turns to re-enter the circle of Derek's arms and to kiss him. Without those heels, they're about the same height and that's perfect. Her arms around his neck, Venus kisses him and thinks that those kisses are the sweetest thing she's ever tasted.
