I'm sorry for disappointing you all with the last story. I'm hoping this attempt fulfills you better. My goal is to always keep you coming back. Without you, I have no one to share these ideas with. I have much love for all of you.

It was as if someone had taken a page out of her life and placed it in a written form in front of her. She squirmed a little bit as she kept reading, the thoughts and emotions those words elicited making her body reverberate with memories of events passed. She kept thinking about and relieving that day, with excitement, sadness, and finally anger. She could feel his hands on her; she could taste his kiss, and smell him as if he were lying beside her. It was a good day in a time when things didn't have to be complicated.
Of course she had made them simple on her own. She had just accepted a position in a place far from home. The guy she had been dating had turned out to be a dud, but at least he could fill her time here and there. Which was ok because with work being so crazy, she didn't need a lot of time filled. There was only her, and her fish to take care of. The world felt simple, and right.
Then came this other guy out of nowhere. He was smart, funny, and driven. He wanted to do things that were noble and daring, saving the world with charity film projects and such. It would take him a lot longer to get there, but she had to admire his zeal. He had this look in his eyes every time he saw her burned with light and fire. It was as if he had seen her for the first time every time, it kind of made her knees weak at moments. There was just something about him that made her hungry for more carnal appetites.
The problem was he was a nice guy. He never took control of what he wanted. By that she meant he waited to kiss her until he knew she was absolutely ready. He never pushed the boundaries she set up, even if she wanted him to. Once she said something was off limits he respected that to a fault. It was nice to be respected, but that didn't mean she didn't want him to lead. She wanted him to take chances with her. Kiss her on a whim; grab her hand without being beckoned. Even slab her butt when no one was looking.
The problem was she knew he loved her. How could she forget the day it happened? He looked at her, gave a long speech and ended it with those fateful words. They echoed in her mind as if screamed into an empty cave. She dropped her head to think this over. Did she love him? Was it possible to love him? Or was she in love with him? Could it be this was a passing phase due to the flattery in that for the first time in her life someone had uttered those words first?
She didn't really know, but she knew she had to react somehow. It would be crazy to get involved with a man with whom she would be leaving in a short period of time. Even with all these questions floating around she uttered those words she would later regret.
In those words though, she found something amazing. He turned something inside of her, and they really did mesh well together. His wit made her stop and laugh and she laughed a lot. He was an exceptional cook, and quite brilliant at mixing drinks. He talents were there, and really not defined.
He demonstrated a love that was just spoken of, it was something tangible. She could feel it radiate out of him. Every time he saw her, he was always carrying a single red rose, to say how he felt. Her feet were rubbed, and her body massaged after every shift. In fact she came home one night to an in home spa and body treatment. Not just sex, no this was pampering to the fullest. It scared her because there were times they were sharing thoughts at times, almost like he was living in her mind. Through it all his respect of her boundaries was impeccable. Which made what happened truly remarkable...
One year Four months earlier
He had just left. Literally handed her a quad folded piece of paper, kissed her a few times, and just left. There was a mix of confusion, anger, and disbelief in what she was feeling. They only saw each other a few days a month and he had just left her. She had half a mind to set the paper down and sulk for a little bit, but there was something important about this paper to him. With a curious mind, and a slight irritation she opened the note.
The first sentence was to be expected. He always opened his letters to her with the same two words, a nickname he had given her, My Queen. She smiled at his predictability. It was so like him, so comfortable, and yet kind of bland. With that thought she plowed ahead with a sort of bored apprehension. The usual flowery text followed, romance is nice but he somehow always seemed to give it overkill.
It was the next phrase that brought in her attention like a fish just noticing a worm suspended in mid water. You have exactly one hour... a challenge was being laid before her. Amusement escaped her in the form of a smile. Maybe he wasn't as predictable as she thought as her eyes continued to scan the letter. When she was done, excitement actually filled her; she read it again just to make sure she had read it correctly. This was so out of character for him, so totally unexpected. Her body hummed with anticipation. This could actually be ...fun.
She read it a third time, just for absolute clearness.
My Queen,
Words cannot describe how much love for you is in my heart. I wish to fulfill you as you have done for me. With that in mind I lay before a challenge. You have exactly one hour from the time I have left the apartment to prepare yourself. One minute to long and this offer will not happen. You will bathe yourself, using the shampoo that I find intoxicating. You will not shave yourself any more than you already have. You will then proceed to dress in one of my plain white t shirts, and the undergarment you will find in a bag in the bedroom. You will also bring your sleep mask into the bedroom and cover your eyes. I will find you lying on the bed with your head at the foot of the bed, or this offer will not be fulfilled. You actually have 58 minutes now.
Love Always,
Redbeard
She looked at the clock, it was more like 55 minutes, and she couldn't believe she was going to go through with this. The Flash could not have moved faster than she did from the couch to the small bathroom, where she quickly got the shower going. She darted into her room to grab her sleep mask, and the small plastic bag that had been set out for her. In no time she was throwing off her clothes, and stepping into the shower.
Soon the stinging sensation of the water was consuming her senses. All she could think of was the unknown possibilities. What was he going to do to her? How would it happen? Could he actually do it? Her trembling hand reached for the fruity shampoo he referred to. Soon the fragrance of strawberries and mangos were filling the small shower. While it soaked on her head, she lathered her legs, and cleansed the rest of herself. In a flash she had the shaving lotion on her legs, and underarm. She remembered the no shaving rule, but she knew he meant her womanly area, and there was no way she was going through with this feeling like a cactus.
Her hair needed rinsed and a quick wash off the body from the residue. As soon as her fingers touched her lower regions, a spark went off. Her fingers probed herself a little more thoroughly only to discover she was drenched. Not from the shower, but from herself. Soon she was running her fingers through her hair, and feeling her outer lips. They were puffy with excitement, and glossy from the evidence of that excitement. Her finger found her little button, and a shockwave ripped through her. It wouldn't be long before he would be there to take care of her, but she couldn't help herself. Just the thought of knowing this was going down had made her feel like putty.
She rubbed her little button, and with each pass the ripples of pleasure pulsed through her. She lifted a leg and placed her foot on the side of the tub, steading herself by grabbing the bar of the shower curtain. She relished in the feeling of her own pleasure, the hot droplets of water only adding to it. She was suddenly whisked away to a tropical paradise and the rain hitting her while her lover watched her play by a tropical pool. The ripples kept coming, slowly building the riptide of emotion in her. She begged for him to be there now so she could feel his hands on her, his tongue probing the area she was now touching. How much better it would be if she could feel sand on her feet, and the way it would give to his weight falling between her legs. How she longed for his worship of her body to begin. Her own actions had gotten her to that moment. And soon she was falling of the cliffs of pleasure and riding waves of euphoria.
