After completing the episode, we wash the dishes and head upstairs. I remove my clothes, watching his jaw slack from enjoyment and surprise. I strut to him, encircling his neck with my arms, gazing into his wonderful eyes. My smile shrinks as his look conveys something I find... anxiety-inducing, yet thrilling. I then realize we are slowly dancing -- me, completely naked and him, fully clothed. Talk about a reversal power-play. Yet, I can't help putting my head on his shoulder.
There's no music, a chill is creeping up my birthday suit, yet I can confidently say I am very happy being and feeling this vulnerable. His steady heartbeat calms my raging nerves, and my arousal gradually burns in my chest. A slow, deliberate roaring flame... I close my eyes, loving the feel of his strong arms tightening around my waist. I tighten my own arms on his neck, breathing him in.
This wasn't part of the deal. There was barely any deal as it is.
Yet, here we are.
We stop. I look him and find him looking right through me. I'm dying to know what thoughts cross his brilliant mind, yet I know the answers would terrify me. We both reach out to each other, pulling our faces, kissing passionately and fervently. We are two hungry, and admittedly horny souls seeking comfort and solace into each other. It's a perfect maelstrom of chaos and lust. I feel the chill creeping into my absolutely vulnerable and naked body. I love it. He hugs me closer.
"Wait for me?" he whispers as he wraps his warm arms around my waist.
I nod, unable to speak. I have been waiting... I can wait some more.
He untangles himself from me, putting a bathrobe on me. He ties the knot, never breaking eye contact. We kiss one last time, and he leaves the room. I slowly sit on the bed. My goodness... I have been waiting for him, haven't I? Even as I have moved on, even as I am quite happy and satisfied with the way things are going in my life, I have secretly been wondering how a reunion between would play out. I've been re-imagining my actions if such scenarios took place. Wow.
I hear water streaming and pooling somewhere, vaguely thinking there must be a pool or a tub near-by. My thoughts now shift to his face. Has he been waiting as well? His actions certainly indicate so. But he has his partner?!... And so do I... What does all of this make us? What does any of this mean? I'm interrupted when I see him approaching me, also adorning a bathrobe.
"Come with me."
