We sit at the table in the middle of the restaurant. It is not a particularly large place, but very nice. The kind that has that extravagantly expensive feel, yet somehow reminds you of sitting in your own dining room. The walls are covered with picturesque views of mountain landscapes from lands far away, and candelabras decorating the walls for light. The wooden ceiling arches high overhead, and chandeliers hang down with candle shaped lights. The floor is a dark plush color, and yet still firm. The tables are covered in long tablecloths that drape nearly to the floor. In the middle of our table is a three-pronged candelabra, the candles still tall with much wax to burn. And sitting across from me, is the woman of my dreams.
Incredible blonde hair hangs down to her shoulders, gentle waves of softness that curl around her face and ears. Her hair is almost alive in the way it responds to her every movement. It captures my eyes, and locks me in. I know it would dance in the slightest breeze and twirl around my finger at the slightest touch. I ache to fill my nostrils with its sensual smell, and to feel that softness against my skin.
Those piercing blue eyes that never seem to stop twinkling with mischief look back at me as I settle my gaze upon her. Her eyes drown me in their tranquil blue waters. They pierce me to the soul, laying all my sins bare. She can see my every dream and desire, and her eyes twinkle with that knowledge.
With almost no makeup on whatsoever, she glows with an inner beauty that radiates off her like water from a magnificent fountain. The lights around her catching each incredible wave, causing it to sparkle and dance before my eyes.
Her hands rest in her lap, her supple arms free and I can bet that her fingers are twisting around her napkin. She is wearing a black strapless dress that shows off her incredible body. Supple, firm breasts push against the fabric, enough cleavage showing, and enough hiding to leave you aching for more.
From the walk in, I know that her dress hangs down about her knees, leaving those most marvelous of legs to taper down into a short high heels with black straps hanging them onto her feet. The tablecloth hides them from view, but I know where they are, beneath the table. I can almost feel their soft texture in my hands, and I cannot wait for the time when I can hold them again.
Even though she only sits across the table, as I look across at her, I know the distance is too far. This table between us is one thing too many. I ache to hold her again, to touch her. To smell her hair, and feel it against my face, to caress her soft skin and smell the sweetness of her. Thoughts of dinner evaporate from my mind. She is an angel here to either torment me, or show me just what perfection is meant to be. I know I am not worthy of her presence. To bow down before her and beg forgiveness for being merely mortal, that is what she deserves. An angel of seduction, and I am entranced beyond the ability to do anything.
She must have sensed it, or seen it in my face, her soft voice flows through the air like silk in the breeze wrapping around me, warming me and comforting me. It trickles down my spine filling me with warmth and comfort, "Are you alright, dear?"
"Yes", I choke on my own words, "I'll be fine."
A half smile of mischief plays across her face, and my heart skips a beat. To be blessed with that smile, that gaze, those eyes on me. I ache for her simple touch, her hand on my skin, just to confirm that she is still real, that this is not some wild dream that I will wake up from aching to never wake up again. If this is some dream, then by the powers that be, never let me wake.
My hand twitches on the table, and bumps something. Then I remember why I am here. My body craves sustenance, food. Unable to take my eyes off her, I fumble for the menu. Glancing down, I take a quick gander over the menu. I look back up at her, and her hands are now folded over her menu on the table. Those hands, those simple, yet enticing hands. The curl of her fingers, the careful application of nail polish. Something about them is more alluring to me than I can fathom. I want feel their touch against my skin.
I close my eyes for a moment and try to clear my head. My thoughts dart randomly around, remembering the incredible morning we had shared, and would share again. Again, I focus my thoughts on dinner. Something so simple, yet her mere presence washes it from me. Focus! Dinner! I can do this. Twisted noodles and spaghetti sauce. Tortellini's in alfredo sauce. Steamed broccoli with cauliflower and carrots on the side. And all served on her naked stomach, an explosion of Italian taste with the most beautiful woman there to eat.
A soft sigh escapes my lips as I open my eyes and look at her again. Her mischievous half smile has spread across her whole face. I cannot help but grin like a fool in response. Wiping the smile off my face, and trying to focus once more on the task at hand, I pick up the menu again, scanning over it.
"Have you decided what you would like for dinner tonight?" I ask her, doing my best to keep my voice calm and level. Perhaps I even succeed.
"Yes", she responds with a soft voice full of hidden implications that trickle down my spine, "I have."
"Oh?"
