I drove over slowly. It wasn't my normal pace, not even an inch of the six foot frame was exactly sure why I was going, or if I really even wanted to go. I had made the drive many times, but that was five years ago. After she ended it, I was hurt.
Whoever said that love hurts was so wise, and must have been here too....my respect for her at the time made me unable to think of her as lady "and" a slut. My newfound maturity made me realize that she could only comfortably "be" a whore and cum slut, when she's "safe", knowing that I love her so much id never lose respect for her, rather id grow in every way....with her, in her, on her, for her....
When she called out of the blue I was surprised that I wasn't angry. I had grown over time just like she said I needed to. I thought everything was her fault at the time. But now as I hung up the phone I realized she wasn't to blame at all. I wasn't mature enough to handle what she needed. The fifteen years between my 25 and her 40 wasn't the problem. It was the distance between what she wanted and what I was capable of giving her at the time that created a fork in the road that took us in different directions. I had changed, hopefully she hadn't.
As my knuckles softly tapped on her door it hurt. I couldn't even feel the door against my skin, but I felt the end of our relationship come rushing back. I had knocked on that door many times before.
I remember the night she begged me to drop everything and come over because she needed someone. I made love to her that night and held her tightly. That's what she needed. She looked into my blue eyes, and wrapped her body around my very soul. I fell in love with her. She told me that my eyes made her wet. I didn't understand what she meant, but now thinking of her emerald green eyes, I think of the invitation I missed, to touch her soul.
