Lifetimes of love

The Plan

She got lost in his intoxicating smell and taste. He couldn’t get enough of the softness of her lips against his. He felt like he waited an eternity for this one moment, what he didn’t know was that she was feeling the same way. Slowly they make their way to the soft earth, still kissing passionately. His fingers running through her hair ever so gently, kissing his way down her neck and back up to her lips. She arches her back as his kisses send shivers up her spine. They stop kissing for just a moment, noticing their hearts beating in sync. He smiles down at her, and she feels like she can swim in his deep blue eyes. Their perfect silence is broken by a phone call. “Go ahead, and answer.” She said with a smile. “One last kiss.” He answered. She laughed, “if we start, we won’t stop again, it’s ok I promise.” With a reluctant sigh he sits up. “Okay.” He says with a smile as he gets his phone. “It’s my mom, I better answer.” 

 He sounded a bit worried now. She kept quiet while he tried to reason with his mom about a special dinner, he said he didn’t need. As he talked and tried to negotiate, she looked towards the sunset. Could this night get any better? She laid back and closed her eyes, trying to engrave the taste of his lips on hers. She breathed in again and his smell made her moan. She felt him lay beside her, but his emotions were different. He reached out and caressed her cheek, she opened her eyes, staring into the deep blue ocean again. “I have to go” he let out with a sigh. “Oh...I should go too.” She said disappointed the night was going to end so soon. She could tell by looking into his eyes he didn’t want to end the night either.  

Suddenly, with a smile he jumped up excitedly. “What if we meet back here?” He asked. She looked up at him, “really?” “Yes! I want to see you again” She looked down at the ground contemplating an answer. Of course, she wanted to see him again too. However, with the new curfews she didn’t know when that would be. Finally, she looked up at him and smiled. “I want to see you again too, when do you want to meet?” She could feel how happy that made him as he bent down grabbed her waist and picked her up in his arms. Her legs instinctively wrapped around his waist as he held her. “Midnight. Same spot. It’s now our spot.” He said with a laugh. She thought about it for a moment and reluctantly agreed to the plan. They shared a goodbye kiss and he carried her to her car. “Drive safe. See you soon.” He said smiling.  

As soon as he left towards his own vehicle her phone started ringing. “Hello.” She said still in her daze. “Hey dear I need some help at work tonight. There is a dinner party tonight and one of my girls is sick. What do you say kiddo?” “Umm, yea sure mom. Let me go shower and I’ll be right there.” She spoke. “Okay sweetie. One hour. Love you!” “Love you too mom. I will hurry.” Before she hung up the phone, she could hear her mom giving orders to other people. Her mom is a personal chef for one of the most prominent families in town.  

She was almost home when she realized that same family is his family. Suddenly she was more than happy that her mom called and needed help. She would get to see him again. As soon as she pulled into the driveway, she rushed inside and into the shower, she only had an hour to get ready and get there and she had so much to do.  

After her shower she braided her long hair into twin braids, put on a little bit of eyeliner and mascara and went to pick out something to wear. When she was little and went and helped her mom at work there was always a pretty dress waiting for her there. The daughter of the family and her were the same age and roughly the same size so she never had to worry about anything.  “Damn.” She sat on her bed for a moment thinking of what she could wear. Who knew what kind of dinner this was going to be? She took out her phone and wrote out a quick text to her mom: “mom what do I wear?” Her mom must have had a moment of free time because as soon as she sat her phone down her message beeped through. “don’t worry about it there is clothes waiting here for you.” Oh boy. She threw on some jeans and a t-shirt with her tennis shoes. Double checking the mirror one last time she was satisfied with her look and took off for the familiar house she hadn’t been in since she was a little kid.
