I woke up with a start on Saturday morning because of the loud crash that came from the kitchen. Immediately I ran towards the noise and stopped dead in my tracks when I saw my gorgeous husband swearing under his breath, hunched over some broken plates and glasses, cleaning up the mess he'd made. It was too comical to keep a straight face, and a small giggle escaped my lips.
He turned around to find me wearing nothing but my silken white teddy, and the scowl that had furrowed his brow instantly became a small smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. Instantly we both broke out in laughter at his folly.
I rushed over and started to help him gather up all the bits of glass until the floor was spotless once again.
"I was trying to surprise you with breakfast in bed," he said in a self-hating tone. "I wanted to be romantic."
"Aww baby," I replied as I reached out my hand to touch the side of his face. "It's the thought that counts, and besides, you're the most romantic man I know."
The instant my hand touched his unshaven face, my blood began to boil. Suddenly, my appetite changed, and my skin flushed. He noticed. Of course he noticed, he knows me better than I know myself, and he turned his head to kiss the palm of my hand. Instant shivers.
That's when he pulled me close to him and kissed me so tenderly that my knees turned to jelly, and I collapsed against his chest. He held onto me tightly, taking in the scent of my hair, and running his fingers down my spine.
I looked into his face and whispered, "There's a way to make it up to me, you know." A little wicked twinkle came to my eyes.
That was all he needed to hear for a sexy slow grin to appear on his face. He leaned in and kissed me again, gently probing my lips with his tongue, asking for entrance. I parted my lips, and he tentatively tasted me. Gently coaxing me to groan from the back of my throat.
My arms flew around his neck to pull him tighter towards me, my whole body pressed up against him, silently begging for his touch. His grip on me tightened further, and the kiss deepened until he was groaning with need as intense as mine. Our breath became laboured, coming in quick gasps. Our hands knowingly started to touch each other's bodies...softly teasing the senses.
He started to back me up, until my back hit the refrigerator door. "God honey, I don't think I can wait," he whispered hoarsely in my ear.
