She poured the tea and sat. %u201cDid you open it?%u201d%u201cNo. Your cottage. Your privilege.%u201d%u201cHow exciting. What do you think we%u2019ll find down there?%u201d She asked him.%u201cA ton of cobwebs, spiders, dead bodies, dead rats and dead mice,%u201d he replied without even blinking.She glanced at him. Her voice was an excited whisper. %u201cLet%u2019s do it tonight in the dark with just a tea light in a saucer each. We lie on the floor, blow out the lights, and you fuck me there.%u201dHe didn%u2019t answer right away but when he did, it was with words of caution. %u201cWe could end up on pointed nails, glass, bed springs, discarded things that could cut and pierce out bodies. I understand it excites you. We can only do it if we check carefully with our little lights. I also suggest we put the tea lights into jam jars so we don%u2019t set fire to years of hanging cobwebs.%u201d%u201cAgreed,%u201d she said.They waited until the night and shared wine together like a wellestablished ritual. Slightly tipsy, Elaine stood up and stripped. She took two tapers and lit the tea lights in the jam jars. David stood up and stripped too. %u201cOkay. Are you sure you wouldn%u2019t like to stay up here in the warm and clean room?%u201d he asked her.%u201cI would like the added excitement of the dirt and unknown down there,%u201d she replied.Spider
