I am thinking of adding a sub-plot to my story where we have say, Adam and Eve. They do not quite like each other but one thing leads to another and they have sex.

After that, Adam wonders if he should do something for Eve, influenced by the fact that he slept with her.

I want to show the erotic scene in the story to explain their motives throughout the rest of the story, but I am torn as to how detailed the scene should be written and even how to describe it altogether.

Should I be abstract / metaphorical (magma eruptions all over the place), or should I be direct (see hidden quote below)?

> His erect penis entered her tight, wet vagina.

Any advice on how to approach this would be great, thanks.
