When I woke up around 4 in the afternoon, Beth was not in bed with me. I called out for her but the apartment was quiet. I got up and used the bathroom, then wandered into the kitchen, where I found a note stuck to the refrigerator with a magnet.
"Darling, I needed to run out to do a few chores, laundry and a couple of other things. I didn't want to wake you; you were sleeping so peacefully. I'll be back by 5. Call me when you wake up if you want. Don't eat anything. We'll bring in something for dinner. Love, Beth. xoxoxoxoxo"
Short and simple, yet just seeing the words 'darling' and 'love' made my heart want to burst. And I missed her. I really missed her, even knowing she would be back in less than an hour.
I made myself some coffee, after searching 5 minutes for where her k-cups were. I had to remember to get half and half; Beth only had milk and she drank her coffee just with sugar. A whole bunch of little things we had to adjust to about each other, from personal habits to what to put on the shopping lists. Just thinking about it made me nervous.
While the coffee brewed, I called Beth on her cell. "Hi darling. I was wondering if I would hear from you before I got home."
"Thanks for letting me sleep, honey. I really needed it. Did you get some rest?"
"Not a lot. But I can sleep while you're at work. Are you hungry?"
"Very. But I'm behaving. Just having some coffee. I need to get some half and half on my way home in the morning."
"You don't have to do that, Eric. I can pick it up now."
"I'd rather you just come home. I miss you."
I heard Beth sigh over the phone. "I just melt inside when you say things like that. OK, you pick it up on your way home. Can you eat Chinese food when I get home? Or we could order in around 6:30 if you need a little time."
"I can eat now. It won't bother me. I've got a cast iron stomach."
"You're cute, you know. Should I just order? Spicy or not?"
"Not spicy. I may have a cast iron stomach but my mouth can't take it."
"And I love spicy foods. We have a lot to learn about each other, baby. And I want to learn it all."
I wished she was home. I just wanted to kiss and hug her more than anything. "Honey, we can order in when you get home. I want you to get back here as soon as possible."
Beth paused for a moment. "I'll be home in less than 10 minutes. Bye, my darling."
"Bye, honey."
I was watching the news when Beth got in 8 minutes later. I got up quickly and after taking some packages from her, I gave her a quick kiss hello. We put the bags down by the kitchen and I was able to give her a proper kiss, arms around her back and hers around my shoulders.
"Mmmm that's what I missed" Beth said, smiling, her face just inches from mine. "I almost woke you up to get a goodbye kiss, but that just would have been selfish. Still, I was tempted."
"Honestly, I'm glad you didn't" I replied. "I was exhausted when I fell asleep this morning. But I'm sure if you had, I would have found it in me to cooperate. You're worth just about any sacrifice, honey."
Beth's fingers flipped through the hair on my head. "You say the sweetest things. Makes me all wet when you say things like that. Are you interested in finding out?"
"To be honest, if I wasn't famished I would love to. I always wake up very hungry."
"Tell you what, hungry man. I'll call for a delivery, pay for it on the phone and tell them to just leave the food outside my door, and while we're waiting, you can take care of what I'm hungry for. Kind of a best of both worlds."
I really couldn't refuse such a fantastic offer. "Deal. Except I'm paying for dinner. I insist."
"OK, but only because you insist" Beth teased. Then a kiss and we got a menu from her local take out/delivery place and ordered dinner. When that was accomplished, I found myself being dragged to the couch.
"What about the bedroom?" I asked with our mouths mashed together.
"No time. Want you now."
Beth's hands were busy undoing my pants and pushing them down my legs, followed by my boxers. She pushed me down so I was sitting on the couch and she hiked up her skirt and just pulled her yellow and blue panties to the side. She straddled me, her knees on the couch and eased herself down on my ready cock.
"Oh, I've been missing this all afternoon" Beth moaned. "You were all I could think about while I was out. And I was hoping you'd want me, like I want you."
"This was a great idea, honey" I said, looking up into her beautiful face, glazed over in rapture. "I still have to pinch myself to make sure this is really my life." I grabbed her ass with both hands as she rode me, up and down, her pussy gripping me like a soft vise. She kept rising and falling with great tension in her legs. I reached up and pushed her sweater to her neck and found, to my delight,. Beth was braless. I pulled her to me and licked her tits all over, getting them nice and damp with my saliva. She cried out as I bit moderately on her swollen nubs. Her fingers were digging into my shoulders and her nails actually cut into me just a little bit. I cried out and Beth shoved her tongue into my mouth as her hips were grinding powerfully into mine.
We were fucking hard and both of us were making very loud grunts and groans when there was a loud knock on her door, The person on the other side of the door yelled out "Chinese food!" barely 10 feet away. Even through the door, he must have heard us loud and somewhat clear.
"Shit, he was just supposed to leave it outside the door!" Beth growled. "Just leave it by the door!" she yelled loud enough for the building across the street to hear.
"Chinese food!" the delivery man called again. "I need a signature!"
"Fuck, I am NOT getting up for this!" she moaned in frustration.
"You want me to get up and take care of it?" I said in a low voice.
