This happened when we first moved in to an apartment together when we finished University. I'd been to work. Rachel had been to the gym and out with friends and I'd played football with some of my colleagues before showering and heading out for a drink before going home.
At the apartment you walked in through one communal door then opened another to our apartment before going up some stairs. Just as you got to the top of the stairs there was another door. On the outside of the door Rachel had pinned a note on the door saying I'm in the bath, come in a get a glass of wine.
I opened the door to find the lights dimmed, music on and candles lighting the room. There was a glass of red wine on the side and I took it and sat down. I was reading a book when I heard Rachel get out of the bath. She told me to close my eyes as she opened the door. Rachel's always had a mischievous side and I know in these situations you get one hell of a night if you do what she says. I closed my eyes and heard her make her way through to the bedroom, shutting the door behind her.
I heard her dry her hair and moving about in some draws. She shouted for me to close my eyes again and stand up. The sound of heels tapping on our wooden floor made me smile. She opened the door and I had to resist taking a peek. She told me to face away from the door. I heard her place a chair in the middle of the floor near the couch; she then approached behind me, reaching up and tying a scarf around my eyes. She led me to the chair and instructed me to sit. I sat. She leant into my ear and she whispered "do as I say to the letter and you'll be rewarded". I smiled which she took to be a sign of assent. "Hold the bars at the back of the chair and don't move until I say you can". Of course I did.
She walked over to the kitchen and poured some wine. Her heels struck the floor as she made her way to the couch which was opposite me. She sat of the couch and asked me how the football had gone. She listened before stopping me and telling me she had been to the beauticians today. I smiled knowing what was coming.
