A single water-drop, rolling down his naked torso, quick, sudden, unexpected. Absorbed by his towell wrapped loosely around his low-waist in a never ending wail of hope. A second drop, faint, chanting all along its sinful way, coming charmingly to an end in an irreverent cough full of greed. The third one, careful, aware of its fate, attempted to change its destination by means of an exaggerated deviation, coming to a halt in the trail of fine and golden hair under his belly button. Surprised, it tried to run away, to disentangle itsel out of that soft and silky maze, to save itself. As the towell falls to his feet, it, the third one, realizes that it could have a clear road downwards and got some speed. It just got tighter as it kept going down. Dramatically turning away from the furry trail, avoided the worst part of it and landed gracefully over the upper part of his right thigh. Strolling now swiftly on this smooth and rosy way, feeling free and unworried, let itself go. And there it goes down his knobly knee, down his ankles and finally down to his foot, from where it jumped to the floor, extingushing immediately because of the carpet. Coming from his leaking head, a fourth, rater absent-minded drop, splattered on his neck, automatically recovering from its fall. Still confused, it zig-zagged down his hard chest, stopping quite half-heartedly at his sticking out nipple. Unbreakable, the fourth, rounded it gazing into endlessness, caring only about something that seemed to be pretty amusing but was nowhere to be seen. Continued still not paying attention to the soft tanned skin below it and started bumping during its way down his perfectly framed abs. Only then it seemed to be concious of its own movement and let a sigh slip, losing itself into his belly button, where it layed captive till it dried. He ran a hand through his golden hair and set free a hundred droplets who flew their way to the floor trying to stick themselves to his body and some others just wheezing, giggling and goggling all over the place. Down his back, another drop glided merrily, sneegering and gasping with every turn it made, leaving a glowing path where it passed and pressing as hard as it could to prevent itself from falling off as it got to his butt. He felt a tingle right there and threw it as he scratched the spot with his shiny nails. The thrown drop glared at him as it fell and it shouted a pleading sentence hidden with a wee of feeble violence. Finally, screaming itself out, the drop held a warning for its fellow water pearls. Silence and emptyness filled his smooth body. He left himself fall, causing a few more drops to twitch fighting against the swallowing carpet and finally fainting. Disregarding the warning, a brand new drop, a stronger one, summoned with a burning-red voice all of the others to take over this body. In no time, it was followed by a growing number of fat, red droplets coming from his nose. Started lining a bit down his handsome, spiky chin, forming a little but quite capable stain from where, one after the other, the drops jumped to the carpet and miraculously survived, creating a dark pool and singing a triumphant anthem. More and more drops joined them, leaving behind a maroon shadow. Raging and burning to escape, unstoppable, thet kept scurrying down his bruising jaw. The remaining drops clinging from his hair at his temple height felt his skin losing warmth, growing cooler and icy. From the depths of one of his closed eyelids, a single tear drop found its way out and rolled down his cheek, landing neatly over the growing red pool, where it finally stopped, sustained during its final moments by the ones resting there, gave a piercing, blood-freezing shout and died perfectly timed with the body from where it had came from.
