An ice storm like this one can cripple a city. Power lines and phone lines were down everywhere. It would take days before the ice would melt enough to open the roads. The world has taken on a strange quietness that is eerie but somehow rather soothing – a nice break from the hustle of real life. I have plenty of food, water and firewood, and an excellent book to read by candlelight. I toss a few more logs on the fire to really get it burning hot, pour a drink for myself, and then curl up with a bunch of pillows and a puffy quilt on the floor to read.
I was so comfortable, completely lost in my book. So of course the doorbell rings. Damn. This neighborhood is quiet, with mostly single residents who are remote but personable. We keep to ourselves but help out when necessary. I was sure it must be one of them at the door, needing a flashlight, candle or something. Heaving a sigh, I left my cozy spot and made my way to the door, my helpful smile already in place.
My mouth dropped open and I just stood there, staring at him in disbelief. I am so shocked, so pleasantly shocked but still not believing what I’m seeing. “What…..?” I barely start to speak when he kisses me and presses me back into the house, closing the door behind us. His answer is a smirk, a twinkle in his eye as he says “I thought you might get cold or lonely being stuck here like this, so I decided it was time for a road trip.” I still couldn’t get over it – he was here, right here, the last person I would have expected to show up at my door on any other day, but certainly not during a storm as bad as this. He kisses me again, hot lips on mine and I feel my body temperature start to rise. I am so thrilled he is here.
His eyes search the room as he strips off his coat and scarf and drops his backpack, his gaze landing on the big, comfy quilt and all the pillows next to the fireplace. It is warm in this room now, very warm suddenly. He bends to a knee near the edge of the blanket as he removes his boots, then pulls me down to him. We are kneeling, face to face, in front of this big, hot blazing fire, touching one another and I still can’t believe it’s real. His wonderful hands slide up into my hair, then down to hold my face. Cold hands are warming up fast from my hot skin and the hot flames, and now we are devouring each other, kissing hard.
For a moment, there’s nothing but that kiss. A deep, hard, punishing kiss that I can feel all the way to my center. Now our hands are everywhere, his hands on my backside, mine on his excellent chest then moving on to other places. Clothes are falling away, hot skin touches hot skin and we still have hardly spoken a word to each other. I can feel his hardness against my thigh, rock hard and throbbing, and it makes me ache with need for him. I am soaked, wanting him so much I can barely breathe.
“Lay” he whispers, nodding towards the quilt with his head. Intrigued, I do it, not the least bit self-conscious about the fact that I am now only wearing a tiny pair of panties. I stretch out, completely prone before him. He is still kneeling, resting his hands on his thighs and just staring at me. Slowly, his hands reach for my feet and start rubbing, so softly, so slowly at first, then digging in harder. Deep fingers probe my calves, moving up to my thighs and I can’t help but moan, it’s so intense. A light thumb grazes over my clit and I groan louder, grinding my hips up for more. No deal.
He has moved on, fingers splayed on my rib cage, thumbs tracing circles on my waist, stroking. He is over me now, his hands resting on my breasts, kneading my flesh, torturing my nipples with pinches and touches. Those strong hands slide down the length of my arms to my own hands, locking my arms out to my sides, held firm in his grip. I am completely pinned down, by his hands, his weight on me and it is so sexy. His face nuzzles my neck, sending shivers all over me. A hard bite on my earlobe, then a nip on my neck, more soft bites on my chin, my lips. I am taken over by how turned on I am. Finally, a kiss, just a light one. He looks right into my eyes and I almost have to look away, it’s such a concentrated stare. After a moment passes he says softly, “Do you trust me?”
All I can do is nod. He seems so focused, so sure of himself that I can only go along to find out what he has on his mind. My hands are still held tight in his hands, and he brings them together, up over my head. My eyes widen as I feel him start to wind something around my wrists. Something soft, his shirt sleeve maybe, a sock? I don’t know. He is done quickly, and my hands are tightly but comfortably bound. He kneels down by my feet once again, just looking at me. He’s so good-looking, so wonderfully fine even in just his shorts. I can’t stop staring at him, drinking in all the details of what he looks like, what his body looks like.
He reaches for his scarf and I am sure he’s going to use it on my ankles. I just think I have him figured out, then he moves right past my feet and heads up to my face with it. Softly, he places a kiss on each eye and then wraps the scarf around me, blindfolding me to everything. I start to protest but am quieted by a kiss and a soft “Shhhhh”.
