LATE NIGHT PHONE CALL

AS I LAY IN BED, I CLOSE MY EYES TO KEEP FROM CRYING. IT'S ONLY BEEN A FEW WEEKS SINCE HE LEFT, BUT IT FEELS MORE LIKE YEARS. I KNEW HE HAD TO LEAVE, THAT DOESN'T MEAN I HAVE TO LIKE IT. WE GO THROUGH THIS LITTLE DILEMMA EACH AND EVERY TIME WE SEE EACH OTHER, BUT EACH TIME GETS HARDER THAN BEFORE. WHY DID I ALLOW MYSELF TO FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM? I WAS JUST FINE UNTIL HE LOCKED ON MY DOOR ONE NIGHT, TO BORROW SOME SUGAR. WELL, LET'S JUST SAY, I WAS THAT NIGHT AND STILL IS HIS SUGAR, WHILE HE BECAME MY SPICE.

WE BECAME INSEPARABLE THAT NIGHT, THAT RAINY NIGHT, SO MANY MONTHS AGO. I SMILE JUST KNOWING HE KNOWS MY NAME. I BLUSH AT THE VERY THOUGHT OF THE WAY HE KISSES ME. SO, HOW AM I GOING TO MAKE IT WITHOUT HIM? I CLOSE MY EYES TIGHTER BECAUSE I FEEL THE TEARS WELLING UP AGAIN BUT I REFUSE TO ALLOW THEM TO CAPTURE ME AGAIN. THE PHONE RINGS BUT I'M NOT IN THE MOOD TO TALK WITH ANYONE. I GLANCE AT THE CALLER ID AND MY HEART BEGINS TO RACE. IT'S HIM!

"HEY SWEETHEART. HOW ARE YOU? SOMETHING IN MY SPIRIT TOLD ME THAT YOU NEEDED TO HEAR MY VOICE."

"BABY, I AM SO HAPPY YOU CALLED! I HAVE BEEN MISSING YOU ALL DAY, ALL NIGHT AND ALL THE TIMES IN BETWEEN. WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME?"

"SOON SWEETHEART, SOON. JUST KNOW THAT I MISS YOU MORE AND BEFORE YOU SAY IT, YES IT IS POSSIBLE."

HIS LAUGHTER EASED MY LONELINESS. I FELT MY HEART SKIP A BEAT. I WAS IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN. HE HAD THAT EFFECT ON ME AND I NEVER WANT THAT FEELING TO END.

"SWEETHEART, YOU STILL THERE?"

"YES HONEY, I'M HERE. YOU DON'T EVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ME GOING ANYWHERE."

"IS THAT RIGHT? WELL, I LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT. I DON'T WANT YOU TO GO ANYWHERE BUT INTO MY ARMS WHEN I SEE YOU."

"I'LL DO MORE THAN THAT."

THE SEDUCTIVE WHY SHE SPOKE AROUSED HIM. HE DIDN'T WANT TO GET WORKED UP AWAY FROM HER, BUT SHE ALWAYS GOT HIM READY. EVEN IF SHE WASN'T TRYING, HE WAS READY. SHE WAS HIS SPARK PLUG, WHENEVER SHE WAS AROUND, HIS MOTOR NEVER RAN OUT OF GAS.

"BABY, WHEN ARE WE GOING TO SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN? IT'S BEEN WEEKS AND I KNOW THAT REALLY ISN'T A LONG TIME, BUT I NEED YOU, I WANT YOU, I MISS YOU, I LOVE YOU."

HE LISTENED TO THE SADNESS IN HER VOICE, WISHING HE WHERE THERE TO COMFORT HER, CONSOLE HER, MAKE LOVE TO HER. THE FACT OF THE MATTER WAS THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW WHEN HE WOULD BE HOME AGAIN. HE DIDN'T HAVE THE GUTS TO BREAK THE BAD NEWS, SO HE SAID "SOON".

"BABY, WILL YOU DO ME A HUGE FAVOR?"

"ANYTHING!"

"TAKE OFF ALL YOUR CLOTHES AND CLOSE YOUR EYES. JUST DO IT! CLOSE YOUR EYES."

I DID AS HE SAID, ALTHOUGH A LITTLE RELUCTANT. I TRUST HIM WITH MY HEART, BODY, MIND AND SOUL. HE ALSO KNEW THAT IF I SAID I WAS IN THE BED, I DIDN'T HAVE ON ANY CLOTHES. THE ONLY TIME I WORE CLOTHING WAS WHEN AUNT FLO SHOWED UP, AND SHE WASN'T COMING FOR A VISIT ANY TIME SOON.

"KEEP YOUR EYES CLOSED BABY. TAKE YOUR LEFT HAND AND MOVE IT DOWN YOUR BODY, NICE AND SLOWLY. FEEL ME TOUCHING YOU? YOUR HAND IS MY HAND. I WANT TO MAKE LOVE TO YOU SO BAD AND RIGHT NOW, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY I CAN.

"OK BABY. I FEEL YOUR HAND ALL OVER ME. TOUCH ME, SQUEEZE ME, PLEASE ME."

SHE MOVED HER HAND TO HER BREASTS, CARESSING THEM JUST THE WAY HE WOULD IF HE WERE THERE. SHE GENTLY TICKLED HER NIPPLES, MAKING THEM HARD AS CHERRIES. SHE LICKED HER LIPS. DAMN, THAT FEELS GOOD, SHE THOUGHT KEEPING HER EYES CLOSED. WHEN SHE OPENED HER LEGS WIDER, SHE FELT HIS HANDS MOVE TO HER HIDDEN TREASURE. HE STROKED HER SOFTLY, MASSAGING HER PEARL. HIS FINGERS ROAMED HER INNER WALLS, MOVING IN JUST THE RIGHT SPEED. SHE ARCHED HER BACK FOR MORE OF HIM. HE MOVED HIS FINGERS IN EVERY DIRECTION, WITH EVERY TEMPO, UNTIL SHE FELT ELECTRICITY SHOOT FROM HER TOES TO HER CORE. SHE MOVED HER BODY TO MATCH THE SPEED AND INTENSITY OF HIS FINGERS. WHEN SHE COULDN'T FIGHT THE FEELING GROWING HOTTER WITHIN HER, SHE EXPLODED. SHE CLIMAXED, LETTING HER ICING SHOOT ALL OVER HIS FINGERS. SHE MOANED WITH SATISFACTION.

"BABY, HOW WAS THAT?"

BARELY ABLE TO BREATHE, I LAUGHED. THE SMILE ON MY FACE WAS GOLDEN. I FELT REJUVENATED. I FELT ALIVE, FULL OF PASSION AND OVERWHELMED WITH PLEASURE. I FEEL IN LOVE WITH HIM ALL OVER AGAIN EVEN THOUGH HE WAS MILES AND MILES AWAY.

"OH BABY, THAT WAS INCREDIBLE. WHY DO YOU ALWAYS DO THAT TO ME? NOW I REALLY MISS YOU! MORE THAN BEFORE! THAT IS SO NOT FAIR!"

"DON'T WORRY SWEETHEART, I WILL BE HOME SOON. JUST REMEMBER, WHENEVER YOU MISS ME, JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND I WILL BE THERE. I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE."

"PROMISE?"

"PROMISE!"

HE GAVE HER ANOTHER ROUND OF LOVE MAKING BEFORE THEY SAID GOODNIGHT. HE SAT BESIDE HIS BED WITH HIS SEED IN HIS HAND. HE WISHED THAT HE COULD HAVE GIVEN IT ALL TO HER. "SOON" HE TOLD HIMSELF AS HE GOT UP TO WALK INTO THE BATHROOM. WHILE HE CLEANED UP, SHE TURNED ONTO HER SIDE, GRABBED HER PILLOW AND LAY ON HIS SIDE OF THE BED, WITH HER EYES CLOSED. ANOTHER LATE NIGHT PHONE CALL, AND SHE LOOKED FORWARD TO THE ONE THEY WOULD HAVE TOMORROW. SHE DRIFTED OFF INTO A BEAUTIFUL SLEEP, DREAMING OF HIM.
