He told her not to move a muscle. His voice had that tone in it, the slight steel that let her know that disobedience wasn’t an option. And so, she was still.

His hand came out, and for a moment the fingertips hovered over her calf. She could feel the air being disturbed, feel the skin on her leg start to goosepimple and shiver. His eyes were fixed on her’s, and all she was watching was that hand. He smiled.

The fingertips came down, the lightest of touches. She could almost imagine the electrons between them barely meeting, fleeting glances exchanged rather than the hard press of a packed crowd that they should be experiencing. That touch frustrated, it made her squirm. Then his command sounded in her head, all on its own. Be still. 

And so, she was still.

Her eyes squeezed shut, and her bottom lip found familiar home between her teeth. His hand was still there, barely touching, but it was moving now, heading south, towards her feet. Towards, her, feet. She squirmed again, just a slight shudder, her body shaking for the slightest of seconds. The hand stopped. Waited. And continued. 

Her toes wriggled, knowing that even this slight, bare, weak touch would have her apoplectic with hysteria, laughter unwarranted and unwanted pealing from her lips. She wouldn’t be able to help herself, and he knew that, and still, armed with that knowledge, he had told her to be still.

Those fingers were at her ankle now, and she was visibly straining, her eyes a mess of wrinkles and focus as she fought the urge to curl up into a ball and cover her feet with her hands. He kept moving, sliding those fingertips along her, leaving a trail of shivers and knowledge. Like her skin remembered, it knew what had touched her and where, and it was still feeling it. Still revelling in it.

And then he reached the sole of her foot, and his smile grew wider. 

And she started laughing. And she started thrashing. And she was anything, anything but still.
