It's been a long week. Deadlines piled up on me, I lost control of old man time around Tuesday, I'm tired, worn out, tense. I pull into the driveway, shutting off the purring motor and sit in silence for a moment, nothing but the slow tick of the engine as it cools off disturbing the air. The house is dark, and my mood slips more. I need you right now. Need to have your presence around me, your scent in the air. Sighing softly, I grab my briefcase, laptop and files and step out into the early evening.
The car was warm, the outside air is not. I shiver slightly as the cool breeze swirls around my bare calves. My skirt has ridden up my legs, mid-thigh now, and I close my eyes for a moment, letting the wind caress me. Unbidden you jump into my mind and I smile slightly.
Opening the door and letting myself in. The house is quiet and still, dark without the sun streaming through the windows. Work gets tossed onto the couch, left for another moment. I've had enough for this week.
Walking into the kitchen. The streetlight casts a soft glow around the room, and shines off a glass of wine on the table. Beside it a note sits, my name on the front. Picking it up I open it and read.
I'm watching you.
I put the note down and glance over the room. Where are you? I begin to smile softly, feeling excitement well up in my body. Do you know how you excite me? How you keep me on the edge of ecstasy with your words? I'm watching you.
The wine is chilled, and delicious. I take it with me, walking to the staircase, wanting to run over the house and find you, holding myself back, determined not to show you how great my desire for you is. Stopping at the bottom, I slip my shoes off, letting the thick carpet soothe my feet. I walk up the stairs slowly, not knowing if you are seeing me, stepping softly in the dimmed light. I reach the top and look around again, giving away my curiosity. I'm watching you. Your words are haunting me.
I set my now empty glass down on the dressing table, the small sound it makes echoing in the oh so still house. A light flickers in my bathroom, the aroma of gardenias wafts out to me. Entering I find candles, illuminating the room, making it dance with light. The cast iron tub beckons me, full of hot steamy water, scented. The tub makes me smile every time I see it, a wonderful memory.
Slipping out of my jacket, I let it drop to the floor. I'm watching you. Soft music begins to play on the stereo in the bedroom. Slow. Deep. Driving beats pound sensuously on my ears. I close my eyes, leaning my head back slightly, letting the music wrap around me. The wine has made me heady, I feel sexy knowing you are near. My fingers slowly undo the silk blouse I am wearing, brushing against my skin lightly, my hands shake slightly, do you see how you arouse me?
