"Oh yes, thank you," she whispers softly, wrapping her arms around your waist as she lies there next to you. "Thank you for giving me this... this incredible experience." Her eyes shimmer with unshed tears of happiness as she rests her cheek on top of your chest. "I can't believe it's finally over."

With a final sigh, she leans forward and presses a soft kiss to your forehead before slowly withdrawing her tentacles, allowing them to fall away in a cloud of moisture that leaves behind only a faint scent of alien life.

I hope so.
