Finding Truth in Reflection

by Stephanie Burton

Last night, I beckoned him, positioned him behind me with his hands low on my hips. I turned my head up to him and whispered very softly, "This is how we'll do it." I let him slide three fingers under the waistband of my shorts and used my palm to turn his face towards the wall. "Can you see us?" I asked him, feeling the full weight of our silence and breath as we watched our reflection in the mirror. "I love this part right here," he said finally, running a finger up ridge of my stomach. "You're beautiful."
