Seeing the pictures that I had long forgotten. Not the person in the pictures all the same the pictures. I had placed them away where I could touch them when I thought I could handle them. Seeing the lacy envelope made my heart quicken.
Pulling them out one by one I felt the pain all over again. I wanted to put them back not seeing their image. Thomas was looking into the camera I had snapped the shot just after he had stood up. It was in Italy where we escaped after I graduated med school.
I had majored in Emergency medicine was swept off my feet by the best teaching hospital in the mid west. Thomas had begged me to go away with him as soon as I got my diploma in hand. I had become strong willed so it took me almost three months before we went on our trip.
Three long months looking back now. Three months I had wasted away. I mean after all it took me almost two years to make Thomas see me. Gradually it happened, he came to me. We were seeing one another non stop working side by side. Taking our sessions with great hope and cares for the couples. We were almost as one entity.
I am had found a note in Thomas' hand writing which was surprisingly very beautiful. He had asked me to meet him in the Garden room at the elite hotel in out town. I was flabbergasted after all this time he actually invited me to dine out with him.
Not being sure what he intended I didn't actually know what to wear. I didn't want to be to dressy nor to casual. I opted for too dressy being on the side of caution I would be at least beautiful.
Stepping out of my shower I dried my body with a thirsty towel. I had decided to wear a new corset, garter for the evening. Pale blue with satin and lace kissing and hugging my curves. Thigh high stockings and four inch heels finished the desired look I was going for.
Slipping the off the shoulder black evening dress. I turned around to see what he would be seeing. I smiled satisfied that I was indeed dressed for something special tonight. My cleavage was acceptable in public. I smiled as I thought how my cleavage might have brought us together.
It was eight sharp when the doorbell chimed. Opening it to the long stretch black on black limousine. I actually felt my heart beating faster. The driver opened the car door for me. We drove through the older part of the city. It was just picture perfect already. As the car slid to a perfect stop, I heard the car door being opened. There he was tall handsome and ever so sexy Thomas.

"Good evening Abigail. I am so happy you could make it. Shall we?" Thomas said with a calm demeanor.
I held my hand out for him to take, we turned to the left walking through a beautiful rose garden.
"Good evening Thomas. I am so happy you asked me to dine with you. " I said with more steadiness than I actually had.
Walking to the table were bunches and bunches of roses with candles. I was noticing the room it was almost like a story book. He had thought of everything. I had told him one night how I would like someday to be whisked off my feet.
He pulled me into his body with a possessive manner. I was stunned at the moment he had never touched me like this before. Could I be dreaming? I wanted to sleep forever if I were dreaming. His hands were pressing me into his body. Every curve every muscle was pressing him against me. I was wanting to touch him like this for so long.
His lips moved down to mine, I wanted the innocence to last forever. I felt his body it was pulling me up almost off the ground. When his lips graced mine with a kiss of innocence promising me everything. I inhaled so deeply my moaning was lost in his mouth.
My eyes closed his lips were parting mine. His tongue came into my mouth playing so sensually with mine. I was dreaming this couldn't be real. His hands were in the small of my back. I felt his muscles knowing his every curve. As his lips parted from mine they parted with a slight tugging. He pushed me back a little in doing this I opened my eyes. His eyes were smiling, I knew that smile. It was the smile I had always dreamt of seeing.
