The plane landed about the same time the sun set behind the horizon. Looking out my little window, I could see the skyline looming off in the distance. I knew you wouldnāt be waiting for me in the terminal. Although I did mention what hotel I was staying at. I actually saw the Marriott from my window while on approach.
All I could think about was really two things. Oneā¦you and the secondā¦dinner. I was going to get out of this terminal and get my rental car as quickly as I could. I needed to get checked in and shower before I met you in the lobby bar. We had pre-arranged our meeting throughout the earlier monthsā¦first starting as a joke but soon moving up into something dangerous.
It wasnāt really hard to come to the decision to meet. I had gazed into your eyes many days and nights. I had wanted you more than I ever should have. The chance that I could soon be running my hands through your hair for real was just way too powerful. I had to come.
I had jokingly mentioned that Iād try and be on my best behavior but the thing I wanted to do most was to gently hold the back of your head and pull your lips to mine. I wanted to run my hands up and down your backā¦your shoulders⦠I wanted to feel you. Feel you for real.
Every time I looked in your eyes, I wanted you more and more. I wanted you with all my body.
I got the car and map and made my way out of the airport. Driving to the hotel was not too difficult. The AVIS clerk had done a great job with directions. I pulled into the Valet lot and took a deep breath. This was supposed to be easy. You had been the object of my desire for a while now. But here I sat like on my first high school date. Almost too scared to get out of the car.
The sudden appearance of the valet jogged my mind back into reality. I handed him my keysā¦told him my name and said I was checking in. He filled out the ticket and handed it to me as I was heading for the double doors to the lobby.
I was almost shaking with anticipation as I headed for the check-in desk. After receiving the room keys and signing my life away on a credit card receipt, I was about to turn towards the elevator when the front desk clerk said I also had a message. My heart first skipped, thinking the worstā¦you had called this off. Before I could catch my next breath, the clerk continued, telling me that I had a visitor waiting in the lobby bar.
I mumbled thanks as I headed off towards the lobby bar. I knew Iād recognize you in an instant. Itās hard to miss your set of eyes in any crowd. They were burned into the back of my brain by nowā¦
When I entered, I saw about four people. A couple near the bar, a business man with a laptop and a lady with her back towards the door. I knew it was you. You were intent on stirring what ever you were drinking with the red bar straw. I slowly made my way over to you. I could begin to smell you when I was about 3 feet away. I donāt know what perfume you were wearing but it now was my favorite.
I didnāt know if I should just introduce myself, kiss you, shake your handā¦whatever. My mind started going blank as I drew within the final feet from you. My hand for what ever reason decided it was going to seek diplomacy on itās own. I reached out and touched your left shoulder, calling out your name gentlyā¦ā¦

Iāll remember it forever. The moment you turned your head and looked at me for the first time. Your eyes were even more beautiful in real life. You immediately returned my smile. I couldnāt take my eyes off of yours. I really donāt even remember what I said next but I know it was lameā¦like a nice to meet you. My mind was completely blank as I took you in. I remember your smile turning into a wider smileā¦almost a giggle. You probably thought it was lame tooā¦
After dreaming about meeting you for so longā¦and all I can come up with is a ānice to meet youā. I almost started to giggle at myself for being so brain dead. āNice to meet youāā¦hellā¦. God Iāve wanted you for so long and all I can muster is a ānice to meet youāā¦
My hand still rested on your shoulder as you stood up and faced me. I instinctively drew closer to you. The hug came naturally. I donāt remember if it was you drawing into me or me into you. But I remember reaching around you, pulling you closer into me. I remember me lowering my head, my face close to your neckā¦and then you say ānice to meet you tooā⦠I almost burst out laughing.
Hugs never last long enough. The ones that do tend not to be suitable for public places. I guess our first hug was average length. Honestly, I donāt remember how long we held each other. As I held you in my arms, I was unaware of all time and space. I just remember the smell of your neck and hair. I remember the heat from your head and neck warming up my face. Just knowing how close you were to me was pure arousal. And then ānice to meet you tooāā¦. That must have been the ending of the hug now as I think about it.
I do remember almost being happy the hug ended. I knew that the longer you held me, the more you would be able to tell just how much I loved it. The instant I laid my hand on your shoulder I started to grow. The hug only expedited the process. If we held each other too long, I was sure you would begin to feel me as well. I didnāt want that to happen. Itās not that I didnāt want youā¦God knows I didā¦I was just embarrassed to let you know just how bad I wanted you. Not yetā¦Not in hereā¦
I sat down on the empty stool next to you and turned a bit, trying to hide my arousal. I reached out and took your hand off the bar and held it in mine. My mind was slowly coming back to reality. I thanked you for meeting me and remember you slightly blushing. You told me that you were about to head to the airport first because you couldnāt wait to see me. It was my turn to blush.
Small talk is good. It was a very welcome relief at that bar. We talked about everything and nothing. The whole while I looked at you. Looked at your hair, your eyes, your nose, your smileā¦lips⦠I listened to your voice. I answered your questions and inserted comments. I asked questions. Small talk. The funny thing is I donāt remember a thing about what we talked about. Wellā¦thatās not true. I remember the important tidbits about you, remember we talked about the flight a bit, and remember I couldnāt stop looking at you.
