Any Time, Any Place, Janet Jackson (1993)
In the thunder and rain
You stare into my eyes
I can feel your hand
Movin' up my thighs
Skirt around my waist
Wall against my face
I can feel your lips
Oooh
I don't wanna stop just because
People walkin' by are watchin' us
I don't give a damn what they think
I want you now
I don't wanna stop just because
You feel so good inside of my love
I'm not gonna stop no no no
I want you now
All I wanna say is
Any time
And any place
I don't care who's around
Dancin on the floor
Feelin the slow groove
My mind is startin to burn
With forbidden thoughts
Strangers all around
With the lights down low
I was thinkin' maybe we could
Well...you know

Sanem
I keep looking at the door for him and I don't hear half of what Deren says. We've been working hard to prepare for this night, the RedMode campaign launch, and I know we're ready. I'm not worried about my presentation; the only thing on my mind is Can. I can't let him leave for the Balkans without us fixing us.
Leyla walks over to where Deren and I are working. "Emre is here," she says. I know she means to say Can must not be far behind. I feel nervous about seeing him; I know I don't have many opportunities left to try to convince him to stay.
Suddenly I feel the unpleasant familiar itch in my nose and a powerful sneeze escapes me. "I hope what I think is happening right now isn't really happening," I say, hoping beyond hope that my senses are misled.
