The ride home from the restaurant is silent, other than the sound of the motor, and of the tires on the road below. Occasionally, I glance in your direction, noticing a strange calmness. Calm was not a trait you exhibited often, so, it was unusual and eerie to witness it.
Arriving at the house located on the beach's vast sprawl of golden sand set against a backdrop of inky, impenetrable skies, the heavy iron gates open automatically, and the pickup truck eases through, coming to a halt in the narrow driveway.
You turn off the ignition, and sit there perfectly still, finally turning towards me. Your eyes beam brightly, even in the darkness, and my gaze travels along the contour of your silhouette. I feel your hand searching for mine across the cold seat between us. You are warm. I instinctively lean into you, and our fingers meet and entwine. Our eyes lock, and your lips slowly approach, then engulf mine.
I respond, and savor the embrace, hearing the distant roll and crash of the black ocean's waves colliding with the shore. Our lips part, and you place a small kiss upon my forehead. You begin to form words, but I immediately silence you with the delicate brush of a finger across your parted lips. There is no more need for words, it is now time to let our bodies communicate.
I grasp your hand, and gesture towards the entrance of the house,
"Come on, we should get inside. It's getting a bit chilly out here."
You silently follow my lead, never letting go of my hand, still managing to kick the truck's door closed with one foot. At the front door, there passes a fleeting, awkward moment between us, so I attempt to lighten the mood by pushing you against the wall, taking possession of you, kissing you feverishly. Surprised, you disengage yourself, and briefly push away from me, then rush back towards me with renewed fervor, our bodies connecting whole.
Your cool leather jacket grazes against my warm skin, making my breath suck in sharply. You consume me, biting the delicate flesh of my neck, my quickening pulse beating erratically against your probing lips.
You then move downward to my shoulder, briskly running your hands under my shirt. I frantically feel around for the keys, my hands finally succeeding to clutch the cool metallic object, the lanyard cord swinging back and forth in the heated frenzy.
With much effort, I manage to insert the key. The door opens, and we blindly stumble through. The first piece of furniture we encounter, is the table in the front hall. You slam me against it, and I scream out in both surprise and pleasure. You climb upon me, pushing me down against the cold glass, until I'm lying down across it. Its surface is hard, and so are you.
Noticing your obvious arousal, I lean back in surrender, allowing you complete access. Suddenly, your eyes bore deeply into mine, as you slowly lower yourself.
