For Jo, my special muse
When the phone rang, I knew it was you even before I answered. I had been waiting for you to call since our last encounter. Before we parted last time, I had slipped my card into your pocket with the hope that you would call me. You must have found the card.
"Hello," I said. For a moment there was no response, and then I heard you say, softly, "It's me." My senses thrilled at the sound of the voice. Those two words brought a flood of memories from our previous encounters and sent a shiver of excitement through my body. We chatted briefly, and then you said you wanted to meet again. We set a time for later that day, and then the line went dead. I stood by my desk, staring out the window, my thoughts focused on you. I knew my productivity was gone for the day, so I went to my favorite coffee shop to read the newspaper and pass the time until our scheduled meeting.
At the appointed time, I drove across town and parked in the lot beside the library. It was there that we had last been together, and it was there you wanted to meet. As I sat in my car, I scanned the faces of those walking by, seeking your smile and sparkling eyes. After a wait of several minutes, I saw you coming toward me dressed in a stylish skirt and silk blouse, smiling, with a happy bounce in your step. As you arranged yourself on the seat beside me, we exchanged greetings, and then we were on our way. We made small talk, still a bit uncomfortable together, despite the intimacy of our past encounters. I knew that awkwardness would pass once we had time to get to know more about each other.
I drove to the lake and parked, and we sat quietly for a minute as we watched the park visitors enjoying the beautiful day. I leaned toward you and you turned to face me. We shared a warm kiss of greeting, and then we climbed out of the car. We spent the next hour walking the paths around the lake, chatting, learning more about one another. Somewhere along the way, your hand found mine, and we were joined together in body and spirit, energy flowing between us through the casual connection. My palms began to sweat and my heart pounded. We walked silently for a while, consumed in thought, remembering our past encounters and pondering our future together.
We stopped near the dam and we moved together by unspoken signal. We pressed our bodies together, but at first we only hugged, satisfied with the closeness. But then we kissed, a long passionate kiss, a kiss that brought us back to the connection we had felt in the past. Our tongues intertwined, twisting and turning together, sparring, then teasing, and finally assaulting. We pressed more closely together, my hands moving to your ass and caressing your firm buttocks. A low moan arose from deep within you. Enough! We must find more privacy. Today would not be a day for public intimacy. Today would be a day for exploration, for private intimacy. I took your hand and led you off into a nearby field of waist highgrasses. We moved into the middle of the field, far from any probing eyes. I took off my jacket and spread it on the ground.
I reached for you, resuming our kiss which was more passionate now that we were alone. As we kissed, I unbuttoned your blouse and removed it. Your bra came off next, and then I kneeled before you to slide you skirt and panties down and off, putting them on the ground nearby. I raised your feet and removed your shoes. You stood naked before me. I admired your beauty, your silken skin, your sensuous curves, your delicate features. I turned you slowly so I could admire you from every angle. Small chill bumps covered your skin as I kissed up your legs, across your stomach and up to your breasts. I turned you around and kissed down your back, across your buttocks, and along your legs.
I held your hands and helped lower you onto my jacket. I stood over you and removed my clothes as you watched. Once I was undressed, I knelt beside you. You tried to rise up to me but I gently pushed you back, telling you to relax. I reached over to my jacket and removed a blindfold from a pocket. As you realized what I was holding, a look of concern flickered across your face, but you did not resist as I used it to cover your eyes.
