Her heart was racing. She knew she should be sleeping but she couldn't. Tomorrow it was finally going to happen. After eight long years, she was finally going to be in his arms.
She paced. Stopped & looked out the window to the french style courtyard. Images danced in her mind. Images of all the video chats they had shared over the years. The twinkle in his eyes when he smiled at her. The sound of his voice when he would say "Hello Beautiful." The sound of his laugh. All experienced from a distance. But not for long.
He was thinking about her, she could feel it. She always could. She could feel his arms reaching for her. Holding her. It made her smile. As if on cue, she received a text message on her phone.
"Hello Beautiful. All settled in?"
She typed back. "Yes baby. Wish you were here."
He replied, "Me too. Soon baby. Sweet dreams."
"Good Night Handsome. See you soon."
With that she closed her eyes & drifted off into a wonderful, peaceful sleep.
She awoke to the sound of her cell phone ringing. "Without you I am incomplete." sang her phone. She laughed. It was him.
"Good Morning Beautiful. This is your wake up call. Would you like some coffee?"
"Yes please." she answered.
"I have a meeting this morning but I should be there shortly." She could hear the excitement in his voice. She wondered if he knew what it was doing to her.
She jumped into the shower. Taking time to wash every inch of her body. She wanted to be his fantasy come true.
"Now, what to wear?" she thought. She could wear just a smile, which was his favorite outfit, but she wanted to tease him a bit. Let him see but not see. She chose an almost see through short robe. Just enough to hide the best parts of herself.
She was more than ready for him when she heard a knock at the door. She opened it, and held her breath.
"Coffee delivery." he said as he walked through the door and smiled. He put the coffee down on the table, took her into his arms and kissed her deeply.
She felt weak in the knees. She was lost to him.
