We pull into the driveway hearing the small pebbles of gravel snapping at the tires. The front porch has a small glow coming down from the faint porch light. No thoughts of kids, busy streets or work, just him and I. We slide out of the van and grab our necessities for the night; the rest can wait till morning.
In silence we approach the cabin; his hands are shaking in anticipation. I can hear the keys being fumbled around as he finds the right one to unlock the door to our weekend.
At last, we're alone. Ever since our return to the city we've been surrounded. His friends, my friends, our friends, kids and work. I've been looking at him, the rest of the drive up here and rethinking our rest stop earlier that evening. Relearning the way he looks, the way he moves. Wanting to have him to myself as soon as possible. Well, now it's possible.
So now, behind closed doors, we are finally alone. I turn off the light and look at him in the cool moon glow streaming through the windows. I've never told him how wonderful he looks, even though he is only wearing a t-shirt and sweats. I think you can tell from the look in my eyes how much I love him, how much I've missed having him with me.
We drop our bags on the couch with a thud. He grabs my hand and tugs me gently in the direction of the bedroom. We walk hand in hand; I am not sure which one of us is walking faster. We stand by the bed on the cold hardwood floor, looking at each other in silence, I run a fingertip along the collar of his shirt, lightly touching his skin. His breath catches in his throat. I lightly kiss his lips, then pull back to look at his face. My eyes sparkle as I smile at him. I feel warm inside, and he smiles back. His hands slide under my shirt and across my back. I feel his fingers dancing lightly on my skin, and I shiver through the heat that builds within me. My hands find their way under his shirt and around his waist as he links his fingers and drops his hands to the small of my back. We hold each other tightly again, pressing our bodies together at the hips as his mouth seeks mine. He kisses my lips, my cheek, and my temple. I move my face past his and press it into his hair. I breathe deeply, and he feels the air of the room moving across his scalp as I inhale. My skin tingles with anticipation.
We move apart, ever so slightly, and look into each other's eyes. We kiss tenderly, then firmly, our passion restrained, than wanton. My lower lip quivers as he runs his tongue along it, then I follow suit, licking my lips as I taste him again, like the first time. I move my lips across his cheek, nibbling at his flesh, approaching his ear. I reach it, and whisper what I've wanted to scream out loud this whole day long:
"I Love You"
My hand is stroking one nipple; my mouth is playing with the other. His hands move to cup my rear, then stroking it. I move to the other nipple, pressing my full breasts against him. He cups my face in his hands, stroking my cheek, and running his fingers through my hair. He lifts up my blouse and drops it on the floor. I arch my back and smile at him, feeling free. One hand lifts to stroke the side of my breast, the other my side, moving down my leg. He licks and kisses my nipple. His hand cups my other breast, flicking the tight nipple with his thumb. I lean into him, wanting him. His other hand slips under my skirt, moving up my leg toward my hips. I hold onto his shoulders, vaguely stroking. His hands on my buttocks hold me firmly against his erection through his pants.
"I want you," he whispers.
I move myself against him. His pants feel rough on the insides of my thighs.
"Yes" is all I can say, all that's needed.
Wanting to feel more of him. We kiss, holding each other, trying to become one. Finally we stop to breathe.
