She waited in her car for him to exit the terminal - scanning the travelers faces - searching for him. Is he there? Did he change his mind at the last minute? Was there some kind of family emergency to prevent him from traveling? Or did he come to her as he promised? Her heart was pounding - she thought to herself "What if he stood me up? What will I tell them at home? I'm supposed to be spending the day with some ladies from my on-line cross-stitch group. I'm supposed to be gone from morning till evening. What reason can I possibly give for them canceling on me? Oh Dear God, please let him be here!"
She continued waiting and watching as the travelers continued streaming out of the building, most of them being greeted by loved ones with kisses and warm embraces. Finally she spotted him! Her heart leapt with joy, pounding so wildly she could hear it in her head! He looked at all the cars, hoping to find one that looked like the picture she had e-mailed him. He finally found what he hoped was the right one. He strode toward it on his long lean legs. He's tall, over 6 feet, very lean, almost to the point
of being too thin - but still muscular. His hair was slightly long - just long enough to touch his shirt collar - and a warm reddish-blond with just a hint of curl. His beard was well trimmed, neat, and much redder than his hair.
She watched him approach her car. She still wasn't sure if it's really him. The next thing she knows the car door opened - he poked his cowboy hat-covered head in.."Is that you, 'Angel-Kitty'"?
"Yes. Is that you, 'Tale-Spinner'?"
"That's me, darlin'."
He folded his lanky frame into her car, took off his cowboy hat and leaned over and oh so tenderly kissed her lips. "Hey, baby! I actually made it! Can you believe it?"
"No, I can't believe it. Are you sure we aren't dreaming?"
He took her hand and placed it on the bulge in his jeans. "Does this feel like a dream, baby?"
She couldn't believe how hard he was.....or how large his erection felt.
As she reluctantly pulled her hand away, she looked up and their eyes met. The hunger in her eyes was almost palpable, as was the desire in his.
"We..we'd better go. I'm blocking traffic" she stammered, clearly affected by the realization that there's no turning back. She steered her car into traffic, trying to ignore the stirrings of desire. No, it had to wait until they get to the hotel.
She asked him if he'd like to maybe stop for a bite to eat first. It was a long trip and she knew he must be hungry. She hadn't taken time that morning to eat either. Her stomach was doing flip-flops all morning from nerves and anticipation. Part of her knew he certainly must be famished but there was that other part of her that wanted him to refuse food and choose her instead.
"You sure you don't mind if we eat first? I'm so, so hungry, and a hot cup of coffee sounds so good! I haven't had any coffee since our last layover and that was hours ago!"
Her disappointment was written all over her face.
"Oh come on, darlin'......you've got to know I want to love you eight ways from Sunday! But if you want me to do that I need nourishment to keep my energy and strength up. And so does "he". As he says "he", he patted his crotch and gave her a wicked wink.
"Yes, I know, I know. It's just that we've waited so long."
"So waiting a little longer shouldn't be that difficult should it?"
She pulled her car into a parking lot adjacent to a nice little restaurant. They entered, found a booth, and sat down and looked at the menu. Within moments a waitress was ready to take their order. They both ordered omelets, potatoes, toast, and juice. He also ordered coffee and she asked for a Pepsi. While waiting for their food they made small talk, discussing his trip, the weather and other mundane subjects. If anyone was eavesdropping they'd have had no clue that these were internet lovers about to consummate their relationship in reality for the first time. Finally the food arrived. They were beginning to wonder if the cook was waiting for the hens to lay the eggs. They continued making small talk as they ate. When they finished they paid the check and left.
