Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale
Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.
Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.
Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.
River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.
Henry wanted Sterling's touch with every ounce of his being. Even his body spoke of his desire for the man who rested so close to him. And yet, despite how much he desired his lover...he was afraid to take that step. He was afraid of hurting Sterling more than he already had. He wasn't sure what to feel. He was conflicted and he had to wonder if Sterling felt something similar.
Even as he stilled Sterling's hands form continuing, he could still feel the way his lover's fingers teased him. His body responded, loving to speak in that language he knew so well. But he wasn't sure he was ready. He wasn't sure he was ready to take that next step with Sterling.
At his words, he looked up at the ceiling, as if calling on some higher power to give him the strength he needed to resist the one person he loved more than anything. "I...." He paused as he tried to find the words he wanted to speak. His desire was certainly stealing blood from his head and sending it to parts of him that he wished he could turn off in this moment. "I don't trust myself." It may not be a full moon, but he still wasn't sure if he could control his shifts. So far Tetradore had to pull his shifts from him, but whose to say he figured it out on his own at just the wrong time?
He slowly pulled Sterling's hand from him, unable to bear the simple touch any longer. It was causing his judgement to be clouded and he wasn't sure that he would be able to think consciously if he continued much more. "Now is not the time..." He knew that Sterling was not as physical or sensual as he was. But in this moment, he was trying to do things Sterling's way. He was trying, after all.
