Entangled in the rumpled burgundy satin sheets, I faced another sleepless night. My exhausted mind turned to the emptiness next to me, I knew it would be difficult to have you gone but I had no idea how truly lonely I would feel without you here next to me. I missed the gentle heat of your body, the soft rise and fall of your chest as I lay snuggled against it, the laughter shared and the sweet, slow lovemaking. If only I had gone with you. Six months was going to be an eternity without your sparkling brown eyes teasing me unmercifully. And, not being able to touch you or hold you in my arms was going to be unbearable.
I threw back the covers in frustration and slowly eased up from the bed in hopes of finding something to help soothe and calm my frazzled mind enough so that I could sleep. I flipped on the hallway light as I wandered into the living room, pausing at the end table to flip through the magazines that I hadn't yet read. Then turned to the television, hoping as I searched through the late night shows, to find something to distract my racing mind and let me find the tranquility I needed in order to sleep, if only for a little bit. I would never survive six months without you here, at this rate.
Sighing as I pushed the off button on the remote, I slowly made my way to the window and gazed outwards into the peaceful quiet of the night. My solitary figure searched into the world beyond as I watched as the moon cover the water with a shimmer of silver. Pushing wispy strands of dark brown hair from my smoky blue eyes, I could finally feel myself begin to calm. The smooth surface of the water was pulling me into its embrace and carrying the frantic motions of my weary mind with it. The tightness that I felt in each fiber of my body began to ease and the coiled tension to float away as I felt my mind travel to soothing memories of intimate moments that we had shared.
As I stood naked in the warm heat of the summer night, my arms curled tightly around the fullness of my breasts, I could feel an ache begin to grow deep inside with each shadowed memory. The smooth satin of my body began to glisten with moisture as I felt your hands exploring the curves and hidden places of me. My heart began to race and my skin to tingle as I remembered lying gently against you.
I remembered, my breasts crushed against the hardness of your
chest as our hearts began to calm and our breathing to steady in the aftermath of passion's storm. And even now, in my memory, I feel the shivering heat of our bodies and hear the moans of passion.
Closing my eyes, I remember as if you are here with me. My head lifts to gaze into your eyes with the tenderness and desire that we share. I feel the satin textures of our bodies molding together and the gentle heat rising again, knowing we're not through this day. Lifting slightly I begin to slide down along the length of your body. My lips nibble softly against your flesh and my tongue trails a path leaving moistness and heat in its wake. My hands graze along your skin as my fingertips flutter just above the surface in a tormenting touch that is almost but not quite there.
My lips press the lightest of kisses down along your chin and into the hollow of your neck to rest against your heartbeat. As I feel your response begin to grow against the soft roundness of my stomach again, I pause, reveling in the sensation and the proof of your desire for me.
I lift my head and knowingly smile as I wait for the signal that lets me know of your pleasure. The nearly imperceptible nod of your head is all that I need. Gliding lower along the hard surface of your body, my lips stop to nestle against your right nipple. My lips part to surround it with the softness of my mouth, gently I tug at it and pull it into the damp heat. The tip of my tongue flicks against it in a gentle fluttering stroke. The fingertips of my right hand softly roll your left nipple between them and feel the hardened response to my touch. Your back arches upward to me in open invitation as I continue my journey.
Sliding downwards along the heated surface of your chest, my lips trail kisses and soft nibbles against your skin. While my fingertips kneading into the firm flesh of your thighs and the gentle heat rises between us to burst into full blazing fire.
