The need to unwind all the thoughts swirling around in my mind before they build up any further.
I go over to the living room, straightening my back and looking directly at him sitting on the couch watching his show-- I ask for what I need. And with how quickly he presses pause and approaches me, it seems like he is willing to help me out.
He takes my hand and leads me down the hall and into the bedroom; halfway across the room, he grabs my elbow and briskly pushes me the rest of the way to the clear space at the back of the room. He reaches out his hand to smooth down and then pull on my hair, and tells me to get into position. I press my palms to the wall, and start angling out so my ass is on display for him.
Facing the wall and waiting-- I can imagine, and hear the soft sounds, as he goes over to the lounge chair, lifts his work pants off the arm; swishing the belt out of their looped trappings; then bending the two ends together, gripping at the middle of the double-fold. He lifts the hem of my short robe, tucking the ends into the sash.
