I woke up early Sunday morning and walked from the cabin to the general store just down the road. I purchased a copy of the Sunday New York Times, some fresh Bagels, a container of freshly squeezed orange juice and some tea for my angel. She was asleep when I left her, so when I came back I quietly closed the door and went into the kitchen to prepare our breakfast.
She startled me when she came up behind me and asked what I was doing.
"Making a light breakfast for you, my honey," I said.
She hugged me from behind and said she was going to shower. As she walked away, with the sheet wrapped around her, I just stared as I marveled that once again this magnificent woman was back in my life.
We sat around the breakfast nook, chomping away and reading the paper. She would comment on something she had read, I would do the same. After awhile, I started the fire again in the little cabin we called home for a few days. It took the chill out of the air of the cabin and gave it a nice smoky smell.
"Come sit by me, next to the fire," I said.
She came over and I put my arm around her and we talked and laughed. Then I looked her in the eyes and said, "you know I absolutely adore you, right?"
She smiled and said, "yes and I adore you, my dearest."
I then kissed her. No other words could communicate how I felt about her at that moment.
She felt so good in my arms as my hands caressed her body as if for the first time. Exploring tenderly her entire frame. My fingers gently gliding across her body. Barely wanting to touch her for fear I would and find out it was just a dream and she wasn't really there. But as she placed her hand on my cheek and rubbed my face I knew this wasn't a dream but my dream come true.
She gently guided my face towards her and began to kiss me. I followed her lead and kissed her but my kiss could never equal the passion which she exuded at that moment. The passion, the fire, her entire essence was in that one kiss. I thought to myself how could I ever reciprocate on that level. Then I realized that she wanted me to feel her desire, to acknowledge it and that nothing more was expected.
I have known her forever but I am still amazed by her raw sexuality. She stopped kissing me and she looked into my eyes and stared. Her hand was still on my face. What is it that she looking for? What is she trying to see?
Then she said, "I love you too, baby."
I was about to say something but then I let her words remain in the air. The sound of the fireplace punctuated our emotions as the kindling snapped and burned. I pulled her close to me and hugged her. She smelled so good but not of perfume but her own natural scent that when mixed with the warm woodsy smell of the cabin would remain in my mind forever.
