The Perfectionist pushed Tom onto her bed. She took off his shirt. She took off his shoes and his socks. She took off his pants. She took off his boxers. With most guys the Perfectionist would stop there. She didn’t. She was still feeling reckless. She took off his skin. She took off his nervous system. She lifted up his rib cage. His heart beat in her hand. And there, underneath it, she found a rusted tin box. She opened it. Inside she found his hopes, his dreams and his fears. She stared at them. She was surprised to find them there and surprised at how beautiful they were. At that exact moment, the Perfectionist fell in love with Tom. Andrew Kaufman

The Perfectionist is a person who wants everything to be perfect. The Perfectionist would never stop at just stripping Tom's clothes off and taking him to bed. She managed to find Tom's hopes, dreams and fears and even managed to bring out the beauty in what used to be his old rusted tin box.
