'Phew! How can he say something like that so brazenly?' She mumbled to herself when a small sound erupted from inside her.
'It's not like you haven't seen it already.' The thought had her daydreaming about his body and then she remembered the scars littered on it.
Her mind wandered, what heinous fantasies people must have put him through. She hoped one day he would open up to her and tell her about them.
