inspired by the forbidden fruit line </3 @silvanshadow gave us lyrics from Even If by the Corrs for @galladrabbles

Mickey was told to never wander this dark, but a demon caught his eye.

He lifts the weeping willow’s branches, his pupils enlarging when he sees a dangling apple. It’s pump and lush and he wants to take a bite.

Just a bite! Just a bite won’t be so bad, so he sinks his teeth into its flesh and breaks the skin. His now black fingers are drenched in juice, and yet he wants more.

Thank you Lisa @silvanshadow for this week's @galladrabbles prompt!

Previously on No Sleep 'Til Nashville, Mickey finally slept.

Ian hands our key to the hotel clerk. “My friend and I enjoyed our stay.”

I nudge Ian as we walk outside. “Why’d you call me that?”

“Because you’re my friend.”

I pinch my eyes. I need more.

Ian slinks against me. “You’re my… lover.” Now he’s getting it. “Wanna bite you. Wanna nibble on you the whole way home.”

Better, but I still need more. “When we get back, will you be my—”

“Yes.” For Ian, it’s as simple as that.

We got no car. No plan. We only have each other.

“You’re my friend, you’re my lover wanna bite you.”

Dear Lisa,

thank you for the prompt this week!

We got a song lyric, dear writers:

"You're my friend,

you're my lover,

wanna bite you."
