Daydreamer
Sitting on the sea
Soaking up the sun
Chapter 1
She remembered the first time she saw him; he was accommodating and polite to her. She wasn't looking for anything since this was her first outing since the loss of her husband. Her job had her traveling, and he ended up being her driver for many of the trips she took around town. The first few times she was around him she kept to herself, barely even talked. As she saw him more and more, she became comfortable with him and made small talk, but something happened late one night when he asked her to have a drink with him.
She wasn't sure if it was the drink or two she'd had or that maybe things he said touched her soul, but she said too much to him that night and didn't know how he would take it. He was intrigued by her and baited her, seeing what she would say. Everything changed that night. She had never felt this way about anyone since her loss. He moved her in ways she couldn't explain. He was under her skin, and she enjoyed it. Things were different, this wasn't an intense sexual attraction, although there was one, it wasn't the only force driving her. He touched her heart, soul, and mind. She began to crave him, his presence; just the thought of him drove her crazy.
He wasn't like all the other men that just wanted her for sex. He wanted her for her, and he saw the inner beauty that she held. They had a connection. She was not sure how he felt or what he was thinking, he was a hard one to read, but he always said the right things to her at the right moment. He made an effort to see her even when it was hard for them to find the time because of their busy lives. They found comfort in each other, knowing that there was one person out there thinking and caring about them.
The day finally came where they could spend some alone time together, just the two of them. Where they could leave all their cares at the door and make it just about them. She gave him a huge hug, holding him tight. It had been a while since she had seen him and just wanted to keep him. She inhaled his scent and felt the intoxicating effect he had on her. They sat down on the couch, holding hands; she loved the feel of their fingers intertwined. His brown eyes melted her into putty. She didn't even care what happens tonight, she is with him, and that's all that matters.
He told her all about his travels, and she could hear the excitement in his voice as he shared. She ran her free hand along the side of his face, caressing his beautiful skin. She moved closer to him. Her hand moved down along his jaw, pausing for a moment, trying to read his eyes, she moved in closer and kissed him. The feel of his soft lips on hers is fantastic. It was a gentle kiss; he didn't pull away. She felt his arm moving around her, holding her as he returned the kiss. They pulled away from each other and looked into each other's eyes. Neither one spoke for what seems like minutes.
