Tip

You stood before them, unable to look away from their eyes, barely able to process anything except their words. Taking what little energy you had just to stand upright. Just to be able to keep looking into their eyes. And you did want to keep looking into their eyes.
It felt so good to stare, to be held in their gaze, as their words ensorcelled your mind. Dimly, you were aware of their hand on your shoulder. You were balancing between awareness and deep sleep, between trance and consciousness, and then, their hand gave a small tug.
And you tipped. Tipped forwards, towards them. Towards their body, and their arms caught you, holding you safe, secure, and so very close. Your mind tipped too, plunging downwards, away from the conscious world, and to the place where their words could just slip inside.
