I picked her up at the train station at just before five. We haven't seen each other for a month. We met at college and I gave her a ring at my graduation. We knew that the four hundred miles between our homes would be an obstacle, but we also knew that it would be a temporary one. Temporary was becoming entirely too long.
We had been apart for about two years. She was living with her parents and working in Boston. I was living with my mother while I attended grad school. We had wanted to move in together, but there was always another reason to prevent it from happening. We had to compromise. We alternated months were we took a weekend and traveled to see the other one.
During the long trip home, she chatted about anything and nothing. I drove. As I drove, I rested my hand on her shoulder, occasionally playing with her neck. I knew that she liked that. Occasionally, she'd lean into it like a cat.
I knew what I was doing. By the time we got home, she was definitely 'on.'
We arrived home to find dinner waiting. During dinner, I sat next to her on the couch, our legs touching. My mom and she chatted during the meal. I watched TV, mostly, although I did chime in a few times.
After eating, I plead fatigue and retreated to my room. She was close behind. As she closed the door, I switched on the radio. We always had the radio running when she visited. It wasn't for "mood music," but as a sort of camouflage. In this house of paper thin walls, the illusion of privacy is all-important.
With the door closed and the radio playing, I stepped up to her. I looked into her eyes, losing myself in their depths. Breaking the gaze and bending down, I kissed her. She responded with enthusiasm.
A long moment later I came up for breath.
"Miss me much?" I asked, still holding her close.
"Not at all," she said with a smile. "What would make you think that?"
"Oh, nothing," I replied, "nothing at all. I've missed you, in more ways than one..."
I bent and kissed her again. This time, as I did so, I grasped the bottom of her shirt and began to pull it over her head. She understood my intent and broke off the kiss to help. I removed her shirt and she removed mine. Again, we kissed, the cotton of her bra the only barrier between our chests.
She backed off and, grinning mischievously, licked one of my nipples. I stiffened. She loved seeing me do that and quickly nibbled the other nipple to see me react further. Spreading her fingers through the hair on my chest, she sighed.
"Something wrong?" I asked, concerned.
"Absolutely nothing," she said. "I've missed this, just being near you."
"Honey, you ain't seen nothin' yet."
"Is that a promise?"
"Absolutely."
"Good," she purred, "that's what I've been waiting to hear."
With this, she pushed me back onto my bed. Looking up, I could see her removing her bra. Her beautiful breasts revealed for the first time during her stay.
She has wonderful breasts. They aren't huge, pillow soft masses, but rather high, tight, perky mounds. I could play with them for hours. She's a bit self-conscious of them because she doesn't think that they are big enough. She's wrong. They're perfect.
She climbed onto the bed, straddling me. I reached up and pulled her to me, kissing her.
"I love you," she whispered, "and not just for this."
"I love you, too," I said, nibbling her earlobe.
I worked my way down her jaw line, kissing, nibbling and in general doing my best to push all of her buttons. Kissing her on the mouth, I worked my way back up the other side of her face to her ear. From there, I started down her neck.
As I nibbled and sucked a little, she sighed in pleasure. Her neck is one of her most sensitive areas. I moved around to the front and kissed the small scar at the base of her neck. I knew it tickled her. Call it revenge for her playing with my nipples.
From the base of her neck, it's a short hop to her breasts. I pulled one of her tan nipples into my mouth, suckling a little. Again, a sigh escaped her.
Dragging my tongue across the valley between them, I moved to the other nipple. As I did so, I began to fondle the one I had just left. Nibbling and sucking brought a new sound from her. She was really beginning to enjoy this.
Moving my other hand to this breast, I pushed the two together and licked the insides of both. Again, I was rewarded by a pleasure sigh. A gentle sucking pressure and more nibbling drew another.
"I think," I began, "that we should probably pull the covers down a bit. We're going to need them soon enough."
"Definitely."
