She looked down and softly added,
“I have a lot of baggage and I’m not a
very good person. I’ve done things I’m
ashamed of. I want to be different. That’s
why I came so far in order to get away
from what I had become. I…. I probably shouldn’t be telling you this, but I was
on the verge of committing suicide.”
She glanced up at me then as if to see
if I thought she was crazy.
“What stopped you?” I asked softly.
The look in her eyes was full of truth
as she whispered, “I don’t know. Maybe
it was God.”
I nodded and she looked back down.
I said nothing, but continued to hold her.
She felt like heaven against me and
silently I prayed that I would remain
unexcited as this was too personal of a
moment to have spoiled by the
awkwardness of an erection. My loins
remained still and with quietness of soul, I listened as she said, “I was very
promiscuous in high school. My dad
died the year I graduated from middle
school. My mother was already long
gone from sometime in early childhood.
I can’t really remember her. She left my
father. When he died, I fell apart. I went
to live with my uncle, but I wasn’t right
in the head. I slept with a lot of men
and…… and a few women. I got back on
my feet sort of in college when I met this
man. I thought he was perfect or at least
he seemingly had his life together and
the attention he gave me was flattering
so I hooked up with him. I was with him
for four years. As bad as high school
was the time spent with him was hell on
earth. He used me and yet I didn’t leave even though he was beyond mentally
abusive. I just didn’t see it. I kept trying
to please him, hoping that my life would
stay together. Finally, I couldn’t take it
and I dumped him and ran. After six
months of working myself through things
and trying to get a grasp on life I took
this job and now here I am in the arms of
a man I truly don’t deserve to be with.”
She looked up and the tears were
back as she emotionally said, “You’re
right to fear me. I’m messed up inside. I
meant what I said. I will go. I don’t
want….”
Leaning forward I kissed her, cutting
off all her words. She gasped in surprise
against my lips and then moaned as my
mouth opened on hers. Her hands came up to clasp at the
back of my neck even as her thigh drifted
up my hip. Seemingly lost in the kiss..tried to hold back to show her the real me before i could but I couldn't ,i wanted to love her
and to the best of my heart, I let myself
do exactly that. My hands found her
bottom and lifting up, she obliged by
wrapping her legs about my waist. I
backed her in against a smooth barked
tree and kept kissing her.
She was seemingly as hungry for me
as I was for her and aggressively she
kissed me and ground herself up against
me. I sensed the moment that her self stimulation of rubbing into the pressed
ridge of my shaft outlined against the
front of my pants became too much and
brokenly she cried out with passion,
“What have you done to me! Ohhh!!!”
Her body bucked in my grasp even
as I pressed against her pelvis and
ground her back into the tree. When I felt
that her o****m had run its course I let
her legs fall down and I stepped back a
little from her.
She leaned back against the tree
looking utterly spent. She had a look of
awe on her face as she gazed at me.
Glancing away, she said, “I suppose it
would do no good to tell you just how
badly I would love it for you to rip my
clothes off and make me yours would it?”
Breathing heavy and fighting the
desire to o****m myself, I said, “No, no
it wouldn’t. This is a date. One we
should probably end right here. I find
that I’ve come to appreciate the
understanding of a much greater
awareness of you. The future, if God
wills there to be one, between you and
me is far less scary and more one of
excitement by the moment.”
She glanced back to me, “Do you
involve God in everything to do with
your life?”
“Yes, I do, especially when it comes
to picking out a mate.” I held my hand
out to her and she put hers in mine.
“Do you have a problem with that?”
I asked.
She looked up at me and I saw her
puzzling on something, and as if
discovering something new for herself,
she said, “No, I don’t. I want you to be
you as much as I want to be who I am.
Can I be who I am with you?” She
finished with almost pleadingly, as if she
was a little girl begging for permission
to go outside and play.
“Yes, Samantha. I don’t want you to be
any different than who God made you to
be.”
She gazed at me for a long moment
and then in a clear shift of changing tides
she said, “I’m hungry does this date include a meal?”
My mind immediately leapt to what I
wanted. I wanted to feast on her, but
schooling away the desire she
effortlessly evoked I said, “Of course it
does; only Warbly’s finest diner will
do.”
She laughed and leaned into me as
we walked back to the truck. I opened
her door and before she got up into it,
she leaned in and kissed me. It was
quick and then she was up on the seat
that I had cleaned off, especially just for
her so she didn’t get grease on her
clothes.
