I remember the day like it was yesterday. I can still smell his sweat lingering around the house as if he had just been here. I never changed the sheets from that day because it was a day I never wanted to forget. A day I hoped to see again soon. It was just so perfect, the wine, the weather, the music. I remember hearing him sing while he showered the next morning, sweet soft notes coming from such perfect lips. Oh, do I remember those lips, so soft in touch.
It was late in the evening when our lips first touched. He was telling me how happy he was he accepted my invitation to dinner. I, myself, was surprised he agreed to come. We were sitting in front of the fireplace just after we finished cleaning up dinner. He looked over at me and all I could remember were those eyes, his warm blue eyes, sparkling in light from the fireplace. We sat there on the floor and just stared at each other, gazing into each other's eyes. Not knowing what to say, I quickly glanced away, but he didn't I could still feel his eyes looking at me digging deeper and deeper into me as if he was looking for a part of me unnoticeable to the naked eye. I glanced back and at that moment, he reached his hand out toward me gentle brushing my face with his fingertips. He leaned forward and pressed his soft lips against mine. I was in heaven. (I can still feel his beard tickling my chin.) To his surprise I kissed back.
I took his hand in mine and pushed toward him.
Thump
. He fell against the wood floor. I asked if he was ok, his response could only come from that of a lover. He grabbed at my shirt and pulled me down. As we lay there on the floor our tongues sliding passed one another's lips. I can hear him panting. I could hear every breath he took. I try pulling away, but he wouldn't allow me.
I finally break free, and I look deep into his eyes and he looks back and we share a moment of indescribable passion. He tries to talk, but I could not hear a word, his lips move and all I could make out, was the soft sound of him saying, "Baby, you know I love you and I always will." My heart falls apart and I fall in love, again.
I reach for his shirt and slowly start unbuttoning it, he leans toward me and we kiss again. I can see the sweat dripping. I get his shirt unbuttoned and head for the belt. He stops me; he wants to move to the bed.
As we make our way to the bedroom, I watch him remove his shirt, only to reveal a perfectly tan muscled back. We finally make it to the bedroom and I start to remove my shirt, but he stops me. He grabs my shirt and lifts it above me locking my arms, tangled up in a web of clothes. Just as I like it, I think to myself, he looks at me again with those eyes and pushes me onto the bed.
He climbs on top and starts kissing me. Our soft lips touch again making me weak in my knees. He slides his warm tongue into my mouth, as if he's searching for another way out. I follow along by doing the same. (I've never really been with anyone before.) He starts moving toward my chest, kissing a line from my lips, down my chin, along my neck and straight toward my happy trail. He looks up at me with his large blue eyes and stops at the tip of my belly button. He recites again that he loves me. I tell him the same.
