I am sitting in a small cottage in the woods that is situated beside a large lake. The setting is beautiful with the light from the moon shining on the water. However, the serenity does nothing to calm my nerves. Tonight is the night I finally meet you. We have exchanged many emails and even chatted a few times. Somehow, you have made me fall in love with you. I have never seen your face, never felt your touch, yet I know it will be magical.
I hear a car drive up the gravel path and my insides clench with anticipation. I hear the car door slam followed by the crunch of your footfalls in the gravel. Your footsteps get louder as you walk across the porch. I hear your knock on the door and my heart leaps in my chest. I cross the room and pause before I open the door. We agreed that if I change my mind I won't answer the door and you will leave no questions asked. I try to compose myself and I reach for the doorknob. Doubts scream in my head. What if you don't find me attractive? What If we don't click? My mind reels with indecision. Then I ask myself if I really want this, the answer is yes. I open the door.
My breath catches in my throat as out eyes meet. We stand there unable to move gazing into each other's eyes. I have dreamed of this moment so many times and I am not one bit disappointed. You are more handsome than I imagined. In your hands are a bottle of wine and a dozen of roses. You hold the roses out for me to take. I step forward and graze my lips over yours. I whisper thank you and back away from the door. You follow me in to the kitchen and while I put the roses in water you chill the wine.
We go into the main room where I had lit candles earlier. There is soft music playing in the background creating a romantic ambience. We decide to sit on the oversized sofa. We are like two young lovers jumping as out legs brush against one another's. We talk as if we have known each other for years. I suppose we have since we have corresponded that long. We lapse into a comfortable silence and you turn and ask me in a husky voice if I wanted to dance. We stand and put our arms around each other glorying in the feeling of our bodies pressed together. Soon we begin to sway to the music our bodies moving together perfectly. I lift my head from you shoulder and look into your beautiful eyes. In a murmur I ask you to make love to me.
You bring you lips down to mine softly at first. Then you move to deepen the kiss. You probe my lips with your tongue urging me to open them. I open my mouth and as our tongues touch a shiver runs down my spine. It is amazing, as we kiss the fears, hesitation, and doubts melt away. We kiss, our hands exploring each other bodies touching and teasing generating an intense fire that courses through our bodies.
