Emily and I had spent a life altering evening together on Friday. At least, I wanted to believe it was life altering. Now that I'd gotten a taste of her sweetness, I wanted more. I wanted to embrace her with my whole heart. But I didn't want to rush things, either. I felt so uncertain.
Saturday morning, after my shower, I wandered around the apartment in my bathrobe. I could have been doing something constructive, but the truth was I just wanted to daydream about the glorious evening we'd spent together. After our kisses the evening before, I hadn't been sure what to do. Emily had solved my dilemma by saying she needed her rest, so I had walked her to the door. She'd turned quickly to brush her lips against mine, and lifted my heart with a promise to see me tomorrow. I felt like I was falling in love β and at a breakneck pace.
While I was musing that morning, I heard a knock at the door. My heart jumped up in my chest. It must be Emily! I ran to open the door. There she stood, signature smile in place. I admired her while she stood in the doorway. Such luminescent skin, such bright eyes. And I couldn't help noticing the way her clothing fitted her soft curves. I gave a rather inelegant gulp as I imagined my hands on her hips.
"Well, are you going to let me in or aren't you?" Emily teased. I grinned and motioned her inside. I wondered what today had in store for us.
"I should get dressed. Why don't you make yourself comfortable, and I'll be right back," I said, and started to turn. Emily reached for my wrist, though, to stop me.
"Just a second. Isn't there one room we forgot to decorate last night?" She whispered. I just gaped at her. My eyes were questioning, but hers were sure. "Shall we take a look at your bedroom?" Did she mean what I thought she meant? Goodness knows I wanted to experience Emily fully. Although part of me was worried that things were moving too quickly, another part of me reasoned that we had been waiting ten years.
I tucked away my arguments, grasped her hand in mine, and led her to my room. My knees grew weak as I thought of taking her in my arms. I had never before experienced a woman's touch as I had last night, but it felt so right with Emily. A thought flashed through my mind. Was Emily experienced? Had she ever made love to another woman? Her boldness made me think that she had. But I could not think of a way to ask her, without breaking the mood.
