Author's Note: For those of you who don't know the gorgeous Emmy Rossum, here's a videoclip of her singing the song in this writing piece. The song is "Stay" and it is one of my favorites.

Hush now close out the light
No need to speak
Helen Johnson waited in the shadows, deep purple ones that cloaked her from view. The foyer was darker than usual, the lamps glimmering a deep, smoldering amber.
A smile curved her full lips as she dared to lean forward as Andres Segura swept past her. He smelled of the night air, of musk and the dinner they had recently ate. A sigh soughed from her lips as she treasured the scent, treasured it like the finest wine…
Time will slow when we surrender
Whisper now over the edge
“Go on,” Andres was telling his mother. “I’ll catch up with you in a minute.”
The mother nodded. She was walking out in the night with a swirl of perfume and heavy velvet. Helen sighed once more as Andres approached her, hands out only to touch her face. His dark eyes bored in hers, the rugged face framed by his longish hair.
Head rush
Are you still breathing
Shiver
Taking me higher
“Helen…” that was the only word he spoke before his sweet, sensual mouth slanted on hers. Instantly, her hands threaded in the velvet of his hair as she cherished this moment…cherished it.
Stay
Darkness take over now
Stay
No thinking twice
Stay for tonight
“How much is a little bit?” Helen managed as Andres kissed at her neck, brought sensations she never thought she could feel. The sensations that only belonged in romance novels. But then again, she was in her own romance novel, a cliched version of the quiet society girl falling for the foreign, handsome stranger...
The sound of your heart racing faster for me
Is what will save me
”Tonight…” Andres whispered. “I don’t give a damn, frankly. About what they think…they don’t own my life.” He stared hard at Helen and she almost laughed, almost cried at the emotion filling his eyes.
Whisper soft
Anticipating this eclipse
“I love you…” Andres whispered. She smiled. She was the one to kiss him this time. And she was the one to start peeling off the other’s clothes…
Pulling you closer
Melting now covered in silk
Letting go into the stillness
His jacket fell to the floor, along with Helen’s hairclip. Her long, copper-blonde hair spilled over Andres’s face, his shoulders as she kissed him with the passion she was always amazed at.
Head rush careful don't drop me
Shiver taking me higher
”I love you too,” she said against his lips as she pulled off his shirt. “I love you so much…”
Stay
Darkness take over now
Stay
No thinking twice
Stay for tonight
The sound of your heart racing faster for me
Is what will save me
She felt the silk of her dress peel away, felt it pool around her feet…Moans filled the foyer and Helen felt the soft press of heated skin against hers, the passion beginning to show in Andres’s kisses, his caresses smoothing over her curves.
Faster for me
Feeling you save me
The belt buckle was undone. So was the pants fly. She was clinging to him like he was her air, her water, her nourishment…and he was taking them upstairs.
Memorize every moment (Breathe)
Letting this love take you over (Breathe)
Just breathe and stay
To the bedroom.
Stay
Darkness take over now
Finally…Helen was nestled in the mattress, feeling so right and yet so dirty…
Stay
No thinking twice
Stay for tonight
“This is wrong…” she protested thinly. “We shouldn’t be doing this…”
Andres didn’t let up, just whispered in her ear, “Please. Stay. Stay for tonight.”
The sound of your heart racing faster for me
Is what will save me
Helen nodded her assent…
Faster for me
Feeling you save me
And then she felt the rush of heat envelop her.
Stay
