Early morning
By Sam80853
 
 
It was 4 a.m. on August 13th, a Friday actually – a date I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.
 
Ray and I had been watching a warehouse for over 5 hours and I was brooding about my life. About the things I had done wrong or would have done differently if I had been just a little smarter or faster. About the things I would like to have but wasn’t brave enough to ask for or even to hope for. Like the person right beside me, just an inch away. How easy it would be to reach out for him and feel his warmth under my hand.
 
And it was then that my eyes locked with his and a smile I had never seen before crossed his lips. His hand had reached out for me, touched me.
 
“It’s okay to want, Fraser,” he had whispered, not letting go of my hand and I was looking into his eyes, searching for answers to my questions. 
 
You…?
… and me …?
… together …?
… love…?
… for keeps?
 
I couldn’t get my mind to form complete sentences.
 
But with him I didn't have to because he was always able to read me like no
one before him. I didn't consciously intend to let him pass my shield but he
got through easily.
 
He was holding my eyes with his own and just said "Yes!" knowing as well
that I wouldn't just accept his offer without turning it around and around
to look for a different meaning first - he knew me too well.
 
He pulled me against his body and kissed me. Sweetly and gently at first, with more passion as I responded to him, his lips, his eager tongue.
 
He hasn’t stopped kissing me even now. 15 years later he is still showing me how much he loves and needs me.
 
The End
