I shivered as I came inside, the large wooden door sounding a loud 'Click!' as it shut. I had a grey knit hat on, covering my braid, a thick black coat which hid the small womanly curves on my chest, tight blue jeans, brown insulated boots, and black mittens. I saw you on the couch, sipping your tea with a smile on your face.
"I thought you loved the cold." You raised a bold eyebrow at me, questioning my former statement.
"I do. When it's not snowing." I turned my back to you, bending to unlace my boots and leave them and their snowy soles at the door. I hung up my coat, put my gloves in the chest, but left the hat on, afraid of the possible frizz beneath.
"Nice ass." You chuckled, a smile obvious in your voice.
"Yeah yeah yeah." Your favorite part. You always cited it whenever you felt the need, unafraid to lay a hand on it in front of anybody, anywhere.
I wiggled my toes and walked to the kitchen, grabbing an apple and a glass of water. I walked over to my chair and sat down, propping my feet up on the leather ottoman. We had bought this house about a year ago, and I had just redecorated. It was a nice two story. Brick outside, high ceilings inside. Marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, slate floors. Dark wood, it was my dream home. Four bedrooms upstairs. Three being designated.
The master was the room we considered our fortress. Where we made love, got dressed, had good times, and on that rare occasion bad times. One room was a guest room, for welcomed visitors, and for those untimely visits from your mother. She always took the time to question me about a non existent pregnancy. Another room for the office, a large desk took up a wall and a corner, two computers on it. Photos, pens, paper clips, calenders, sticky notes, and whatever else an office needs was in there.
The other room was for whatever our future may be. The kitchen was beautiful, where I cooked for you, and myself, thoroughly enjoying every minute. I couldn't help but to smile whenever I thought about how many times you'd bent me over the island, your hands pinning my wrists down, cool marble against my tanned skin. God... all in all, our home was that of a successful happy couple whom had no qualms with one another or our lives.
"Honey?" you startled me, bringing me out of dream land.
