A Case of You
Wine sits abandoned, catching firelight through its ruby depths. The true vintage lies upon the softness by the hearth, in passion laid aside for decades in darkened vaults of the heart. Time has mellowed the form, redrawn the lines of the green, keen years into something almost too complex, mournful and sweet to be savoured. The year needs to be drunk, uncorked with slow urgency over tongues parched for lost, remembered tastes. Rupert knows it, as he tilts back Ethan’s face and drinks deeply of him once more. And promises for both of them, not to waste a single drop.
