We have finally managed a babysitter for the weekend and arrived at our destination a little while ago. It is a lovely old bed & breakfast, somewhere in Vermont. We have wanted to get away, just the two of us, for so long. The building is an old restored Victorian, with a wraparound porch and gingerbread details. We have a suite on the third floor, a large bedroom and bath.
I have left you to unpack and change for dinner while I shave and take my shower. My preliminaries finished, I open the bathroom door and see you. You are bathed in the soft light of the bedside lamp. On the dresser several small candles are burning, smelling lightly of vanilla. You are unaware that I am watching as you dress.
I approach you from behind as you stand in front of a large, floor length mirror. You are wearing a white blouse and a dark skirt; you are almost finished getting ready to go out to dinner. You catch me approaching out of the corner of your eye and smile. I reach around your waist from behind with one arm and pull you close to me. I can smell your hair and feel the warmth of your neck as I nuzzle your ear. Neither of us says anything, we just stand there, me holding you, for a long time. You reach up with your right arm and lay your hand lightly on the back of my neck and close your eyes. Your hand feels cool on my skin. I am still warm from the shower, wearing a white terrycloth robe.
Our bodies seem to have synched up somehow, finding a rhythm before forging ahead together. After several minutes, we are breathing together slowly and deeply, relaxed but somehow expectant, too. I say something in your ear, not a whisper, but deep and low, something about being late for our dinner reservation. Your lips curl upward in a smile.
My hands begin to move to the buttons on your blouse. There are many, but my fingers are up to the task, and slowly your blouse opens from top to bottom, still tucked into your skirt. My right hand finds its way inside the fabric, feeling the soft skin of your stomach. You inhale sharply as my hand finds its way to your left breast, still safely covered by your black bra. I can feel the weight of your breast through the silky fabric, and feel your nipple harden under my hand. I move my hand away to tug your blouse from your skirt. I undo the final button and slide it off your shoulders, let it fall to the floor. You are watching all of this through half closed eyes in the mirror. We have not kissed yet.
I turn my attention to your skirt, lowering the zipper. It joins your blouse on the floor. You are now only in your black bra and panties, very conservative. I admire the way they contrast with your complexion. We are both watching in the mirror now. My hands seem to have a mind of their own, exploring your body slowly but surely. The curve of your hips, the symmetry of your shoulders, the roundness of your bottom, the curvature of your lower back are all discovered under my touch. I begin to kiss your neck; you are getting goose bumps. I release the clasp on your bra and slide it from your shoulders. Still, we have not kissed.
My hands waste little time finding your now exposed breasts. They are a marvel to me. They are alabaster and rosy pink all at the same time. Firm but soft, too. My fingertip traces your tan lines, the back of my index finger grazes the bottom curve of your left breast; my thumbs circle your nipples and feel them harden. I drop my hands to your waist, following the upper edge of the fabric of your panties. I feel the slippery texture of the fabric covering your behind. I ease one hand into the front of your panties, feeling the tuft of downy hair, the slight mound at the intersection of your thighs. I slip my index fingers in each side of your panties and explore the smooth skin underneath. I ease them down, over your hips until they, too reach the floor. You are now naked, reflected back to me in the mirror. I just look at you for a long moment, drinking you in. You are a wonder to me. You are watching me now in the mirror. You can see the want in my eyes. I feel you shudder as you settle against me.
