Sitting there with tape on my lip, and my mind completely focused on the small package in my hands, my fingers feeling like sausages as I try again and again to get the right fold in place before I tape it down, you smile at me and say I look handsome wrapping presents. I stop momentarily, looking up into your beautiful eyes, smiling your amazing smile, and I know this is what love is. Such a silly little phrase, and yet coming from you it meant so much to me. I smile and then continue working on the small gift, but inside I am bursting with emotion. My love for you threatens to overflow from your simple words. I want to place the gift on the table, lift you into my arms, and carry you to the bedroom to touch your skin the way your words touched my heart.
We continue to chat and I finally finish wrapping, and you come to me, and we hold each other, your warm body against my own, our arms wrapped tightly around each other, your head on my shoulder and mine buried in your hair. I feel your lips against my neck, flaring heat wherever they touch my skin. The music on the radio changes to a familiar song, and we sway slowly around as you nuzzle my neck and I sing softly into your ear. You kiss your way up my throat to my chin, and finally my lips as our hands caress and touch each other’s bodies. So soft, so tender, we kiss like a summer breeze, letting that breeze blow across our burning love and setting it ablaze. We pull closer, kiss harder, drawing into each other, needing more of each other as our love song plays in the background.
The song ends, and we slow, touching softly again, and kissing gently. You touch my face, and I the curve of your neck and your cheek. Taking my face in both your tiny hands, you pull me down and kiss around my face, my lips, my chin, my cheek, my eyes, all around and each kiss is like gasoline on the flame of my heart, sending waves of heat throughout my body. I take your hands in mine, kissing the palm of each before I place them on my chest over my rapidly beating heart as we put our heads together and breathe deeply to calm ourselves. We come together, wrapped in each others’ arms once more, and then we kiss softly before I leave. We could do more, we could let ourselves go completely, give in to our desires, but then I would not be able to leave your side, just as you can never leave my heart.
