She walked into the dining room after dressing in her sexiest dress, waiting for the moment for him to come home. It was their one year wedding anniversary and they were still living each day like they had just been married. Not a day goes by that she doesn't think of him and something that she would want to share with him, talk with him about, just see him and have him pull her down on his lap and just hold her as they watch a movie or share a dessert. Tonight she was planning something special for him and she hopes that he really enjoys it.
The candles were lit, the dinner was on the table, the soft music was playing and the only thing missing was him. All too soon, she could hear his car pull into the driveway and into the garage. He would come in, call out for her as he removed his jacket. It was clockwork and she lived for it every evening. She stood by his chair and waited.
The door to the garage opened and as expected, she heard him call out her name. She smiled as she stayed at his chair and waited for him to the dining room and see her. When he finally did, he stopped dead in his tracks and just smiled at her. In his hands was a vase of lilies, her favorite flower and she smiled as she took them from his hands and placed them in the middle of the table. She turned back to him, put her hands on his shoulders and raised up to give him a small kiss.
However, the same thing happened that always happens when they start to kiss. It begins to consume them as their tongues did battle with each other and his hands went around her waist, lifting her up off her feet. When she realized what was going on, she knew that she had to stop him or all her plans would be for nothing. She breaks off the kiss and stares at him with lovestruck eyes and said, "Dinner is ready."
He smiled and very gently put her back down on her feet and held her chair out for her, waiting for her to be seated, before sitting in his chair. She had made his favorite dinner, chicken fetucinne, and they ate in companionable silence while often glancing at each other and smiling. He could tell that there was something going on with her but he couldn't put his finger on it and it made him a little excited to wonder how the night will play out. He knew that she was always full of surprises and that was one of the reasons he loved her so much. He never knew what to expect.
