He sat in the airport lounge, trying to wait patiently. her plane was a bit late due to the weather. There was no one to blame and He tried to be patient, but it was difficult. It had been so long since T/they had seen each O/other. He smiled at the memory of T/their first meeting. Although it had been brief, it had been very passionate. T/they had only been able to spend an evening together. her visit to be with Him this time, was going to be for ten days, through the holidays.
At long last, He heard a PA announcement that her flight had landed and was approaching the gate. He made himself relax. He had not wanted to think of it, but the weather did worry him a little bit. It was snowing, but not too hard. It surprised him that the muscles in his body started to relax as he didn't realize he was so tense. He had been worried ... probably over nothing, but it was His nature.
It was a small airport, so it was not long before He saw her. He saw her eyes searching for Him and then spotting Him almost immediately. her smile warmed Him. He loved seeing that smile. she had often insisted that she was attractive in a cute kind of way, but not beautiful. But every time He saw that smile, He melted. He found her to be a very beautiful woman and T/they had agreed to disagree. He chuckled at the thought.
she ran into his arms and buried her face in His neck. He knew that she was crying. He held her tightly and tried to fight having His own eyes fill with tears ... and failed. T/they simply stood there, in the middle of the airport lounge, as if no one else was there, holding each O/other. He finally pulled back from her and looked into her eyes with a smile.
He kissed her softly and then whispered, "Let's go get your luggage."
After picking up her luggage, T/they walked to His car .... her suitcase in one hand, her hand held in His other. T/they talked as T/they always did. T/they were best friends. It seemed so natural for T/them. He spent time telling her what was going on with His job, what was bothering Him about a specific project, and how badly He needed this break from work. she spent time talking about her family, how things were going for her daughters in college, occasionally rolling her eyes about something one of them did, and repeatedly telling Him how excited she was to be with Him.
It was cold, not that cold for a winter day in Minnesota with no wind. But He knew she would not be used to it. He had already started the car so that she would be comfortable. He had not mentioned it to her, but she already knew He was protecting her, taking care of her. It simply seemed natural to Him. But to her, the feeling of His watching over her helped her relax.
She squeezed His hand as if to say, "I know You will take good care of me."
As He drove back to the city and then to His home, they continued to talk, but He could tell she was a bit distracted. He was pretty sure He understood why. she was a bit anxious to see His home. she had seen pictures, but that wasn't the same as walking through it. she truly wanted to see Him in his own home, his comfort zone. Maybe He was a slob and his home was not taken care of or clean. she prayed that was not the case. she didn't think it was, but how could she know? These were only a few of the questions running through her mind. she had some anxieties about being with Him for ten days. she wanted to see this work with her One. she wanted to be with Him. Would this work?
Part 2
There was less talking now as she was watching the country side and then into the city, getting nearer His home. He knew she was nervous. T/they had been together before, but never in His home and never for this long of a stay. He left her to her own thoughts and He drove. When He finally pulled into the neighborhood, she knew they were close. her eyes never stopped moving. He pulled onto a street of town homes and then into the drive way of the second set of units, opening the garage door at the same time.
When He stopped the engine inside the garage, He placed his hand on hers, stopping her from getting out of the car. "I know you are nervous, little one, and that you are not quite sure what to expect. But I will take care of you during your stay. you must relax in order to enjoy it. But if you have any questions, any concerns or doubts, you must tell Me. W/we need to talk and communicate just as W/we always have. The only difference is that W/we are speaking face to face."
she touched His face and said, "I love You Master."
He carried her suitcase inside, following her. she found herself walking into the kitchen and then noticed his office to the right. she smiled and walked to it, standing in the doorway and looking. This was where she met Him. This was where He chatted with her. This was where He had made love to her. This was where T/they had become best friends and lovers. she turned to see Him watching her and smiling, knowing what she was thinking.
He carried her suitcase to the bedroom and then returned.
"Let me take your coat, little one."
He helped her remove it and hung it in the closet along with His own.
"Come on. Let me show you around."
The kitchen, dining room, and living room were all open so you could stand in the kitchen and see out the door to the deck in the living room. The kitchen counter separated the kitchen and dining room. A half wall separated the dining room from the living room. Next to the deck door was a Christmas tree and next to that was a gas fireplace. On the right side, across from the dining area, was a stairway to downstairs. He showed her into the master bedroom. There was a second door to the deck. To the right was the master bathroom and in between was a walk-in closet.
Indicating the dresser, He said, "The two drawers on the left are yours to use, if you wish. I've also made room in the closet as well."
Then he grinned. "But I haven't decided on the sleeping arrangements yet."
she turned to look at him, surprise on her face, and then saw his grin. "For a Dom, you are such a brat," she laughed.
Then He took her downstairs to see the TV room, the guest bedroom, and the guest bathroom. Throughout the tour, she recognized that everything seemed to have its place. His home was neat and clean. It was obvious that He cared a great deal about how His home appeared to her.
T/they returned upstairs and He told her to relax while he prepared for supper.
"I think I will unpack and take a shower," she told him.
"Ok. The towels are in the cabinet next to the vanity. Be careful of the hot water. It goes from luke warm to very hot without much of an adjustment," he told her.
He smiled as He watched her go into the bedroom.
