In my dream he approaches me, shirt tight, defining his muscly frame. I think I gasp because he looks directly at me for the first time and I wonder if it will be like the first time, the last time.
His hair is shorter than I remember, the curls less pronounced, but the chin and the eyes - God, the eyes! - are just as I remember.
He's less than 10 feet from me and I think I might collapse. He's ... majestic.
"Take off your top," he says so I do.
"The jeans. Take the jeans off," he says so I do.
"These?" I ask, pointing at my boxers. "Should I?" I say.
"Yes, those too."
I stand there naked and expectant and when he begins to sing it's difficult to retain any semblance of control.
