I pull up in front of your house and watch the sunset paint the sky in slowly changing colors as dusk settles gently over the tree line in the distance, like two lovers welcoming embracing with the love of the inevitable.
I get out of my car and stretch the stiff weariness from my body. Opening the back door, I grab my bag and turn to see you standing in the front doorway, leaning against the jamb.
Your body is like a glamour. One moment you're watching me with no expression, and without a noticeable difference the smile in your eyes twinkles out at me and I feel my pulse quicken slightly at the completely different person you present to me. Ephemeral and beautiful.
The next moment you're simply waiting for me to walk up and the silence is thick with a ceremony that we've both waited to participate in for a long time.
In a moment I'm up the steps and within feet of you. I take you in, you do the same. I set down my bag and step forward. I wrap my arms around you and get lost in your sigh as I wrap one arm around your lower back and plunge my other hand into the hair at the base of your neck and hold her for a long moment. I can hear you breathe in the smell of me. My leather jacket, the cologne I am wearing, the soap underneath it, me.
I do the same. I breathe in the smell of your shampoo. I know you've been sitting at your window for some time. your hairs still has the vague scent of sun and woods to it, and under that is the smell of You.
I pull on your hair slowly and feel her exhale on the skin of my neck as I turn my head to look down at you. "Hello Moonbeam."
You smile at me and the gathering night falls away as your light floods me with approval and warmth. I stroke your hair as I pull away and gather up my duffle.
"I smell food! Dinner soon?"
You laugh and step away, and for the next hour we talk as we always do. We laugh and find reasons we don't need to touch each other and are never more than mere feet apart. We eat, and enjoy good beer.
We go for a walk in the acre nearby while holding hands and the talk slowly fades away. I kiss you in a clearing under the trees, my teeth graze your skin as my hands roam your body and fondle your hair into almost hopeless disarray as your body leans against mine.
We go back inside after awhile, our path made easier by the gibbous moon hanging low and bright in the cloudless sky.
We sit on your couch and I pet your hair while we watch a movie on tv. your head in my lap, one of my hands on your hip.
I can't honestly tell you what the movie is now, because a quarter (?) of the way through it I'm not watching the movie any more, I'm looking down at you as the gentle stroking of your hair has now turned into the slow and methodical tugging of it.
After I ease up on each pull, I start the slow process over again and your eyes are closed even as your breathing gets deeper. I stop and you look up at me questioningly.
"It's time."
You get up immediately and I follow. I wrap my hand around the back of your neck as we walk to your bedroom. Once inside you look at me with a question in your eyes. I sit at the foot of your bed and ponder you for a moment. I can sense your nervousness as I consider you, I haven't said anything for at least a minute now. You open your mouth to speak and I immediately interrupt you.
"Take your clothes off."
You never hesitate and are quickly naked in front of me.
"Roll your shoulders back. Stick out your chest. Legs apart. Clasp your wrists behind your back."
You do these things immediately and I favor you with just a hint of a smile.
"Don't. Move."
I stand very close to you. I lean in and look at your throat. I lift each of your breasts in my hand and run my thumbs over your nipples. To your credit you never say a word. Just as I knew you wouldn't.
I step around you and run one finger along the curve of your ass. Leaning over I trace the curve of your left calf muscle with my other finger. I complete my inspection of you and notice you are looking down. I frown.
"Look. At. Me."
You head whips up immediately and you meet my eyes. I wrap one hand around your throat and with more gentleness cup my other hand between your legs.. You're warm to the touch and my fingers become damp with the gentlest probing.
"Pulse."
It's a command I've given you before. Your body shivers slightly and I immediately feel your labia pulse as I commanded. I smile at you and reward you with a quick grin.
The expression bleeds from my face as I take you in and am again stunned by your beauty. Your full breasts, your hips, the curve of your stomach, the strong line of your neck, the definition of your muscles. Your healthy skin.
I take a step back and sit down again on your bed. I look at you as I run my fingers through the hairs of my bearded chin.
"I. Am. Going. To. Hurt. You. I'm going to leave bruises on your body and marks on your skin. I will take your breath for mine if I desire and I will use your body in any way I like. Only then is it possible I might let you rest. Do you understand?"
You look at me, your pupils large in the light of your room and nod at me. I am not entirely pleased.
"Speak Moonbeam. Do you understand?"
Your voice is quiet but firm, taut with arousal.
"Yes Sir."
"Good babe. Lay over the bed."
