I was so tired. I had a rough long day. Kids, people, pets, you name it got on my nerves. I took a relaxing hot shower and instead of getting dressed, I lay on the couch in a t shirt and my towel. Lying there on the couch with my eyes shut listening to the soothing sounds coming from my stereo I drifted off to sleep. I don't know how you got here but you were suddenly right here. I could feel your presence as you came into the room. I heard the floor squeak ever so quietly as you crept near the couch. I felt the couch give as you sat down gently beside me. I buried my face into the pillow not wanting to wake up and have this be just a dream. I sighed and brought one knee up to the back of the couch and stretched my other leg out under me. I could feel you tugging the towel off me and I heard you catch your breath when you realized what I wore, or wasn't wearing.
I could feel your presence in the air. I could smell you. I wanted you to come closer, but yet you just sat there looking at me. I could feel you lean down then, closer to me and breathe in the scent of my freshly washed hair. I felt your breath on the back of my neck and I suppressed a shiver. How did you know the one spot to breathe on that would make me come unglued?
A hand followed, I could feel it gently tracing the outline of my body over my shirt. One finger, maybe two, I couldn't tell. Touching hard enough to give me goose bumps but not enough to wake me. But I wasn't asleep. I was desperately trying to not fully wake up and ruin the dream. Aching to be near you for so long, wanting you so badly for so long, I would take you even if it was just a dream.
