The moment your gaze touched my skin
He was watching me when I entered the room. Not directly, nor did he try to hide it. It was as if he knew not just that I was there, but that I should be there . He seemed to be seeing not the clothes I was wearing, but what lay beneath them. There was no haste in that look. No impatience whatsoever. It was clear that time wasn't mine, but that it wasn't a moment I needed to escape either.
We didn't speak. It was as if talking would ruin things. I didn't part my lips, and he didn't approach me. But the distance was shorter than it should have been. When I realized our breaths were mingling, I knew there was no turning back. He didn't touch my skin. But some glances leave more lasting marks than touch.
I didn't think to ask his name at that moment. Because names weigh down things that feel so exposed. And I wanted to remain light.

The Distance Between Us Has Become Meaningless
I don't remember when we got this close. One moment I was in front of him, then the space between us had disappeared. It wasn't a hasty step towards touching. It was more like both of us ceasing to hold back. As the distance narrowed, my thoughts quieted down.
His eyes weren't on my face, but just below my neck. He made me feel like he saw me even though he wasn't looking. I did the same. I didn't touch him. But I didn't stop either. Our bodies spoke, and this language needed no words.
I heard his breath. I don't know if he was close on purpose or unintentionally. But at that moment, we both knew that any move would change everything. And neither of us rushed.
I didn't ask his name. Because when that distance closes, names become irrelevant details.

That silence where we understood each other without speaking.
The silence took on a strange quality. It wasn't uncomfortable, nor was it a void that needed filling. On the contrary, it felt as if speaking would diminish the situation. Every word spoken seemed like it would lessen the burden of what had happened. So we remained silent.
When our eyes met again, it was as if an agreement had been made. Not what would happen, but how far we wouldn't go was clear. This boundary brought us even closer. Because some things become stronger not when they are forbidden, but when a decision is made to leave them unfinished .
I saw his hand. It was beside me. Close. But it wasn't mine. That distance was the most dangerous thing. You feel more when there's no touch. My skin became more sensitive when it stopped expecting contact.
I realized then; this silence wasn't temporary. It would be remembered. And I wouldn't ask its name. Because associating this moment with a name would trivialize it.
The Inclination Being So Slow
Slowness gives one a strange kind of courage. When you don't rush, there's no chance of turning back. As each second stretches on, you make decisions without realizing it. And none of those decisions are ever spoken aloud.
The closeness between us was no longer measurable. It wasn't a step, a half-step, or even a breath. It was as if we shared the same air. The warmth I felt on my shoulder was too faint to be called a touch, yet not so distant as to be ignored.
As time went on, my body got used to it. The tension gave way to a strange sense of resignation. The moment I stopped thinking about what would happen, everything became clearer. There are moments when you're not in control, but that doesn't scare you. On the contrary, it's comforting.
I didn't ask his name. Because with the intimacy developing so slowly, names would have been superfluous. And I didn't want superfluity.
As close as I could feel your breath
I noticed when I felt his breath. Not from his voice, not from his movement. Just from the movement of the air. He was so close. I would have noticed if he had pulled back. Or if he had taken another step closer. But he did neither. That state was the most dangerous thing.
I tried to control how my chest rose and fell. I couldn't. My breath mingled with his. Unintentionally. Not intentionally. But it couldn't be stopped. I didn't look away. Neither did he. As if the first one to stop looking would lose.
I wasn't touched at that moment. But parts of my skin reacted as if they had already been touched. This didn't embarrass me. On the contrary, I wanted to be noticed. Silently. Without saying a word. Just by being there.
I didn't ask his name. Because when you're this close, names make too much noise. And I didn't want to break the silence of that moment.

We didn't touch them, but we didn't back down either.
Not touching was a decision. A conscious decision, one we both silently accepted. But not withdrawing… that was more dangerous. Because not withdrawing meant choosing to stay. And staying made everything possible.
The space between us had now become fixed. It neither opened nor closed. That distance was more exhausting than touching. My skin had stopped expecting anything, but my body was still there. It wasn't leaving. It didn't want to leave.
I noticed my hand resting beside me. His hand was there too. Very close. Close enough to avoid accidentally bumping into. But relaxed enough that he wouldn't stop if something went wrong. That possibility weighed heavier than anything else.
I didn't tell myself, "It has to end now." Maybe I should have. But there are moments when a person can't find the right words. Or they find them but don't say them. Because saying them truly means ending it.
I didn't ask his name. Because while I was still here, I didn't want to remind myself that this moment was temporary.
The First Moment I Didn't Hold Myself Back
There are moments when a person does nothing, but also chooses not to . This was one of those moments. I didn't stop myself. But I didn't leap forward either. I just stayed there. And that was a bigger decision than I realized.
It wasn't hard to silence the thoughts running through my mind. The hard part was admitting I'd silenced them. A part of me whispered that it was wrong. Another, quieter part said it didn't matter. By the time I realized which one I was listening to, it was already too late.
His gaze changed. It was more attentive. More serious. It was as if he was no longer watching me, but the decision I had made . There was no haste in that look, but there was certainty. And in that certainty, I felt more comfortable than I had expected.
I didn't ask his name. Because it was pointless to expect an answer from him when there were things I didn't even ask myself.
I approached even though I knew he had to leave.
I knew she had to go. Not from the clock, but from her gaze. That look told me there was a price to pay for staying. But sometimes people know the price and still take the step. Because retreating is harder than paying that price.
I took a step. A small step. It was impossible to miss. He noticed too. He didn't back down. There was no questioning expression on his face; rather, there was a silence that allowed it to happen . At that moment, distance was no longer a test. It was a decision.
As I got closer, my body's reactions became clearer. I wasn't ashamed. I didn't hide it. Because hiding meant denial. And I didn't want to deny it. I just let the moment pass. Slowly. Silently.
I didn't ask his name. Because I didn't want to attach anything permanent to someone I knew needed to leave.
Before the Door Closes - a lesbian erotic story
The door was still open. That small detail made everything more real. Leaving was still possible. A step, a sentence, even a glance would have sufficed. But none of us used that glance.
I thought he reached for the door. He didn't. And I didn't back away. At that moment, I felt time slow down for us. There was no rush. No panic at all. It was as if this moment had already happened and was just being repeated.
Whether the door closed or not was no longer important. The real question was whether something inside us had closed. Mine didn't. It remained open. Deliberately. Willingly.
I didn't ask her name. Because if this moment had a name, that door would have already closed. (lesbian erotic story)
I didn't ask his name... Some things really should remain nameless.
I didn't wonder about his name after that night. That wasn't what I wanted to remember. Names fade with time, faces become blurred. But some feelings... they remain. Because they aren't tied to a word.
I didn't ask his name. Because some things can't be explained. Some moments can't be shared. And some intimacies are only real when they remain nameless.
And perhaps that's why it's still on my mind.
