I was wearing one of my favorite oversized shirts. It is at least 6 sizes too big for me - that's why I love it. It reaches down to my knees and I have to roll the cuffs about 5 times to expose my forearms. It is one of 3 that I own. Tonight I'm wearing the white one but I'm not wearing pants or a bra. I didn't go to work today so I put a bit more time in on the preparations for my lover's visit. There are fresh sheets on the bed and a candle burning on the bedside table. My house is more tidy than usual - I'm not much of a housekeeper. But this evening it is actually presentable. I would say that even my ex-husband would have approved. One of the reasons that he is now the ex is that the house was usually slightly less than tidy - which was a failing of mine. One of the other reasons that he is the ex now is that nothing like what was happening to me now had ever happened to me before - which was a failing of his.
I rarely think about my ex-husband as I prepare for my lover's visits. So the shift from putting the vacuum cleaner in the hall closet to getting the restraints out of the bedroom closet was as startling as a crystal vase crashing to the floor.
Dinner is going to be a large salad. I pinche the spinach leaves off right at the stems and wash them. They are drying in the colander. The grape tomatoes, cucumber, purple onion, sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts are already in the bowl. I decide to add the spinach and prosciutto ham right before we ate.
I try to make time before all of his visits for special hygiene. I wash my hair and really scrub my skin with the loofah. I shave my legs and underarms as usual. But I take special care as I shave my pussy. I've been clean-shaven for about 8 months. Even after all that time, he will still caress my pussy as he had that first time. I shave very thoroughly before each of his visits. I use a clean-smelling lotion on my skin. But for my pussy I use Jojoba oil with no added perfumes.
As I wait the last few moments for his arrival I sit in front of the stereo and decide which CDs to play. Gypsy Kings? No. Enya? No. Imogene Heap? Yes. Then the stereo will play all the subsequent CDs as background for whatever noise we ended up making.
I am sitting there when he knocks on the door. He will wait there until I open the door. Several months back, he'd knocked and I'd yelled "come in" and he hadn't. I thought is was a bit silly, but he had informed me that he liked it when I welcomed him into my home.
He towers over me. He is 6'4", so towering comes naturally to him. But me especially as I'm only 5'2". To look him in the eye I have to stand on my couch. So I do this. I can rest my head on his shoulder and kiss his neck. Then I blow gently in his ear. He trembles slightly every time I do this. We hold each other for a moment. I have my arms up under his jacket and I feel his heat. I'm still just a bit chilled from my shower so the heat feels glorious. It will be even more glorious when the embrace is skin on skin.
