It's early in the evening, an hour till sunset. The sun is warm on our skin and the smell of the sea next to us fills our senses. The table is garnished with two small vases of the deepest red roses I could find. A single white rose sat in the middle of the table standing higher than the others. It was a sign of my love for you and how you mean more to me than anything else. The smile on your ruby red lips and the look in your heart-stopping eyes, making me fall in love with you all over again.
Dinner is served to us with some sweet red Merlot. We talk endlessly about anything and everything. All the while, I can't help but see how beautiful you are, how amazing it is to be with you and how lucky I am to be your man. The way the sun gently brushes your face and highlights your hair is mesmerizing. When we're both finished eating, I slowly stand up and walk over to you.
Bending to give you sweet kisses, our tongues meet allowing us to enjoy the taste of one another. Gently I slip my hand into yours noticing how soft it is compared to mine. Lightly I squeeze your hand and help you stand. I'm so in love with you everything seems to be moving in slow motion, I can't help but wish this could last forever. Slipping my hand around your waist and placing it on your hip; I guide you as we walk down to the waterline to look at the horizon.
The sun is beginning to set and my timing is perfect. We stop for only a moment to feel the warmth of the sand beneath our bare feet, working it in between our toes and feeling the coolness of the sand beneath the surface. Looking at you I see you smiling, I can't help but wonder what's going through your mind right now.
Walking further down the beach and closer to the surf we await the cool rush of the ocean against the tops of our toes. The ocean nips at our feet as we keep walking, still talking, enjoying each others' company. Stopping, I spin you around just as the sun begins to set. The sky is a beautiful collage of reds, blues, yellows, and purples. The moon can be seen behind us just above the earth. The breeze blowing in from the sea, chilling our skin and sending goose bumps across our arms.
Leaning into me you slip both of your arms lovingly around my neck and gently pull me down towards you. Gazing into each others' eyes we tell one another that we love each other. Still smiling I bend down slightly and our lips meet. Our kisses are so gentle, ensuring there's no doubt in either of our minds that we care for each other. We stand like that for several minutes, allowing our tongues to dance, exploring each others mouths. Giving you soft kisses on your neck, I notice your chest pressed slightly more into mine, your breathing getting a little deeper and your sighs more noticeable.
I whisper into your ear, "If there's a heaven, I hope this is it. I hope I can feel the softness of your cheek against mine, the warmth of your breathe on my neck, the taste of your lips on my tongue; I wish I could hear your voice tell me you'll love me forever. I love you Princess." As I lean back you notice a gleam in my eyes that wasn't there before, but you ask no questions.
Continuing, we walk arm in arm further towards a group of palm tress that tower over tiny spots of yellow and orange that flicker in the wind. As we get closer you see that they're torches, 6 of them, outlining a circle. Noticing the blanket in the middle, you look up at me without lifting your head. Your smile that tells me I wouldn't have had a choice about what was going to happen soon. Giving you a quick kiss on your lips while slightly squeezing your hip, I smile back.
Stopping me at the edge of the circle you kiss me before you walk towards the middle. Standing on top of the blanket you look around, to the sky and back at me. The white blouse you're wearing crosses just above your breasts and ties in a knot behind you. The fabric shines like silk in the light of the torches. You have on a blue skirt that stops halfway between your hips and your knee. Giving me a devilish look you beckon me to the middle.
Moving towards you my nose is engulfed with a mixture of ocean, palm, and smell of burning wicks soaked in kerosene. When I reach you, you grab my hands, intertwining our fingers and putting them behind my back. You kiss me on my neck softly, lovingly. Working your way up to my cheek and across to my lips then I feel your tongue slip between my lips, finding its way to my tongue, meeting it gently. Tasting the wine on your lips and your tongue, sends a chill down the length of my spine.
Releasing my hands you start to undo my belt buckle. Reaching behind you I slowly untie the knot in your shirt. Our lips part and I see your face. Looking at me with pure love in your eyes, you gently bite the right side of your lip with your head slightly tilted to the right. Once you've worked my buckle loose you unbutton my khaki shorts, letting them slide down my legs. I've loosened the knot in your blouse and let the ends fall to your side.
Running both of my hands up the middle of your chest, I brush the sides of your breasts with my palms. Sliding my hand up to your neck I cup your face in both hands, and we lock our lips together again. Skimming my hands across your shoulders I carefully push your blouse off, letting it fall to towards the earth, exposing your beautiful, bare breasts.
