*My first submission to anyone other than myself, please be constructive. Hope you enjoy!*
Weak sunlight reached me beneath my closed eyes and woke me early this morning. I opened one eye tentatively, the other squeezed shut refusing to admit it was morning, holding onto the sweetest of dreams. Swirling dust-motes rode the rays of sunlight that found their way into our little room, and realising defeat, my other eye slowly opened. My head, dizzy from the night before struggled to focus on my surroundings, until my sleepy eyes settled on a note sticky-taped to the headboard above your pillow.
I sat up, smoothing the white sheets around me, and combing my fingers through the mess of curls atop my head I gingerly reached out for the note.
"Couldn't wake you, my princess needs her beauty sleep. See you in a few crazy cat! Josh, x"
Smiling, I traced your handwriting with my fingertips and let myself savour the memories of last night that crept back to me.
The night had started with a bottle of wine at our favourite restaurant, overlooking the harbour. The night was warm, cicadas singing their song, while the lights off of the Sydney Harbour Bridge were mirrored in the still water. I looked over my glass of shiraz to find your eyes cheekily peering at me. Your hazel brown eyes had a twinkle of mischief, and a sensation of lust snaked its way from my hips, to the pit of my stomach, into the naughty smile I gave you in return.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Mr. Joshua Samson?"
"Oh, using my full name are you? I know I'm in trouble now." You replied playfully.
"Seriously, after all this time Josh. You're in town for the weekend, call me... And for what? A booty call?" I could feel the aggression in my tone but I didn't hold back. You had hurt me all those years ago, you weren't just going to get off that lightly.
"B, relax okay?" As if reading my mind, you continued "I know we're not kids anymore, and I know that what I did to you was wrong. I kept going back to you all throughout our senior year because I wanted you. I wanted to share my body with you, I loved you... I love you."
