The final flight was smooth. Having endured a couple of layovers, I had napped most of the way before making our descent into Miami/Dade International. Surprisingly, butterflies filled my stomach as I looked out the window at the eastern coast of the Florida shoreline.
I remembered her instructions clearly and the topic of the visit, deplaned and walked through the spacious baggage claim area of the airport. My mind was blurry from travel yet focused with thoughts ranging from the concert on which I was to write a review to what I was going to do to savor her if given the chance.
Having rented a car and started the drive, stifling humidity filled the air as the sun set in the early evening. She had given her address and requested that I visit, and, as I had found through our online communication, her "requests" were not to be taken lightly.
I pulled into the complex, double checked the address and parked the car. Dressed in a pair of jeans and a loose white linen shirt, I checked myself in the side mirror the best I could. I knew her lover lived with her but was unsure if she would be home. My mind raced, unsure of what was about to happen as approached her door.
I walked up and knocked 3 times, as she had directed, and awaited a response. A few excruciatingly long seconds passed before the door opened and she stood before me. "Hello Gabriel" she said soft and sweetly, holding the door open with her arm slightly above her shoulder, "do come in."
To compliment her inviting, coy, smile, she wore a flowing black dress with red floral pattern that rested just above her knees and framed a slender, fit figure. She had shared pictures with me before, but as she stood before me I was reminded that any complaining I did during my travel was surely misguided. I smiled, my eyes perusing her figure ever so slightly, "Thanks Vicky, it is wonderful to see you." I took a step inside the door.
I walked inside the apartment and looked around, putting my bag down as I heard her close the door behind me. "Have a long trip?" She asked, her voice enchanting, "you must be tired."
I turned around, facing her, "not that bad, but I'm glad to be out of airports."
As her head turned towards the bathroom, her long, black hair caressed her shoulders. "Why don't you shower and get cleaned up?" She smiled. "Everything should be in there for you."
I nodded, grateful to finally relax a bit, grabbing my bag and walking into the bathroom.
"I said 'everything' would be in there for you," she asserted, looking at my bag as I turned around.
I smiled, nodded understandingly as I put my bag back down and walked in the bathroom. Closing the door behind me, I slipped off my shirt and noticed a white cotton terry cloth robe folded neatly on the counter and a pair of men's G-string bikini bottoms laid on top of the robe.
I inspected them before placing them back down on the robe. Starting the shower, I stripped down and took a nice long hot steamy shower, the heat of the water relaxing my body from the stress of travel.
I stepped out and put on the G-string bottoms, feeling the tightness of the straps around my waist and the constriction of the fabric in front left hardly anything to the imagination. I slid the robe on and tied it tight in front. It was short, just above my knees.
Checking myself out in the mirror, the thought it was not MY choice of attire crossed my mind before I walked out.
The cool air mixed with the steamy heat of the shower as I opened the door and stepped into the living room, finding it empty. "In here," I heard her voice call from the bedroom, "come in here Gabe."
I made my way down the short hallway to the open door down and turned inside, seeing her sitting on the edge of the bed with her bare feet on the floor. A short succinct "Vicky," I acknowledged with nod of my head.
"Come in." She smiled, "Close the door." I obliged as the words danced off her tongue.
