He sits on the davenport. Nothing left in him but fire and water. She appears in the doorway silent and still. Smiles exchanged for witty remarks. "Back so soon?" he asks.
"I broke the straps on the straight jacket meant to keep me away from you." she replies.
Anticipation of the next movement to distract from sexual tension ensues. They both wait for the other to come right out and say it, but neither dare approach reality without defense or shield.
"Your work schedule get the best for you yet?" she inquires trying to avoid obvious emotions.
"Almost, but I think it'll be alright in a week or so." he stands directly and moves toward her. His eyes glued on hers. She stands stiffly and stares back as he approaches. She's not certain if he'll move past her into the kitchen, which she enter though, or if he'll enter her little space on earth and take her away to another planet. "It's good to see you." he continues.
"Yes, it's good to..." She is interrupted by his lips. He presses hard trying to satisfy his savage lust with lips alone. She goes limp in his arms, taken so by his passionate action. He forces her against a wall pinning her arms above her head and kissing her ferociously about the face and neck.
He stops a moment, stares her straight in the eyes looking for the answers to the questions he hasn't asked yet. He finds nothing but a smile. "You know you're trapped, right?"
"Am I?" she asks coyly after a slight pause.
"Yes, that is exactly what you are. You and only you."
His brutal constraining, and his strict assertive words startled her, as they always do. Feeling vulnerable and almost scared she tries to wiggle out of his grasp but only ends up with her back to him, wrapped up in his arms. Kissing her neck and ears, she breaths heavy. She feels the tingle up and down her spine that seems to accompany her to every visit with him. Spinning her around and kissing her mouth, he sighs audibly, as if he's been waiting the whole day for this moment to arrive. Their bodies pressed together, touching at every point but still between them lies all the secret truths. All the feelings they have for one another hidden deep down. Both wondering if the other knows.
Pulling only his mouth away he says, "Can you follow directions, or will I have to force you?"
"Give me my orders and find out for yourself." she replies playfully.
"Go up the stairs, enter the door at the top, light the three candles on the bureau, turn out the lights, and wait. Can you do that for me?"
"We'll just have to see, won't we." She says immediately taking leave of him and setting out towards the stairs. Excitement pounding in her chest and her knees feel like they could give way at an moment. Following directions exactly as they were given to her, she lights the candles and turns out the lights. Anticipation floods her being, she decides to add her own flavor to the mixture and unzips her dress. Hearing the click of the zipper as she undresses and just thinking about the man downstairs makes her dizzy with desire. She feels the temperature in the room heighten along with the dew point below her waist. Her dress slips off her shoulders and over her perky breasts. The absence of the thin barrier between her nipples and the air creates quite a stir in her nerve endings causing them to stand erect. Her dress, taken by gravity, slides past her waist, over her hips and plummets to the floor.
