Milestone
Ten years. In ten years, a tiny apple seed could grow
into a proud tree, fruitful and lovely. Frodo gasped, arching his back even
higher, drawing his knees sharply up. In ten years, a babe could become a
sturdy fauntling, laughing and running free through the fields.
Unconsciously, he dug his heels into the bedclothes, and, with a fervent
moan, pushed down with all his strength. In ten years, rocky fields could be
cleared, tilled, and made fertile and lush, until no one would remember
their previous barrenness. He knew the edge was there, so close, but still
he resisted, holding on to the moment, and the wild balance between desire
and craving, and gratification. But he could not hold it forever, he never
could, so with a choked cry, he surrendered to liquid heat, within and
without, his body quivering with release until he lay under that dear
weight, suddenly relaxed against him. In ten years, want could become need,
as necessary as breath itself.
