Taste
****
Hermione lectured me about sensory memories, once.

About how something unexpected can trigger overwhelming memories.

I shouldn’t have been thinking of Hermione at that moment.

When I took him in my mouth.

But I nearly choked.

Not because I was out of practise, or because I took him in too deep – it seems my tongue has what Hermione calls ‘muscle memory’ and remembered exactly what to do.

I nearly choked with emotion when I tasted him.

My mind flooded with images from the past twenty years – from the first time I clumsily went down on him, on our blanket, that glorious summer; from the first time I knelt at his feet in the shower at our cottage; from mouthfuls of wine or chocolate I’d swallowed with him.

It was overwhelming.

It was Harry.
