Lone Lovers Ledge

A Mistletoe Kiss

Awakening from the most perfect sleep was the hardest thing to do especially as I was wrapped within the most beautiful lady who ever existed aka the Greek goddess Aphrodite who would've ever thought i would end up laying in her arms on Christmas eve? It was like a miracle come true, a wish granted I never knew I even wanted. Peacefully moving around was the hardest part as it seems that it was the perfect morning to the perfect day but was that ever true for anyone in the history of the world ever? I didn't think so but being wrapped up in the most heavenly place imaginable was a dream come true perhaps more was to come but who knows i didn't and i wasn't sure if i wanted a sneak peak yet either. Someone once said “you must not rush perfection for perfection takes time that beauty does not hold” if i wasn’t drunk at the time i heard this i certainly would have gotten the quote right! However, taking in the mistake taken before the room was more than alluring than last time, especially now of the memories that were taken within it, it was as if there was a pool of glittering blue water and every time a coin is thrown within memories are made to make up for the loss of water. Such an analogy like this could reform the life I had currently experienced or perhaps been given a taste of but I certainly didn't wish for it to end.

Moving within her grasp as she pushed my hair aside to plant a lovers kiss upon my forehead was a beautiful thing needed for me than me. Raising my head to look at her as a smile adorned my face, her hand sculpted a passageway along my face followed by the deepening of a blush as tingles echoed throughout my body as if it were lovers' language almost. Graping upon my waist and lifting me up to plant kisses along my face made it worse but I was still very grateful for especially seeing it as a gift from my side. Initiating a bond of such as i giggled at the delightful feeling as if i was a mere child all over again that would be delighted in butterflies and such small things. Smirks spread across her makeup clad face as she murmured “look up” glancing up i could see a mistletoe growing from the ceiling like magic above us and i swear it was not there before which made my eyes widen like saucers as delighted by the mere thought of such power. A mistletoe is usually a symbol accompanied by Christmas or of love where you would kiss underneath one, presenting commitment towards one another but if you were to ignore the mistletoe you would be unlucky with love for the rest of your life. That's how the folk tales go at least. Believing this my whole life and seeing it coming closer as it grew longer I could see the red berries shining with juices as the leaves glistened from dew drops as if it had rained through the ceiling but we had never felt a single drop. Combining the christmas colours as a festive spirit grew close as time ticked to set things right i looked down at her beautiful glistening face as she tipped my head downward towards her and my body leaned forward allowing our lips to connect once more as i felt love bloom between us as our lips were locked moving in sync with one another until we parted, breathless from the exchange.

Leaning back with smiles upon both our faces the funniest words slipped out Aphrodites mouth “are you hungry my sweet?” which could potentially be not funny to some however i perceived it as ‘hungry for more love my sweet’? Rather than its actual meaning of ‘are you hungry for food my sweet?’ which seems like a stupid thing to specify as its obvious which it actually is but when your mind is love filled it's sometimes difficult to define the right meaning from the wrong which is why in that moment i burst out laughing and not half laughing. No, this was full on snorting like a pig laughing which is the most embarrassing laugh in existence which you should never do in front of someone you like let alone love! Although Aphrodite was quite kind to chuckle in the sweetest tone you've ever heard and say “your laugh is the cutest thing i've ever heard” whilst smiling up at me then adding “if you're done we can go get some food in your system perhaps?” her tone was the best thing in the world and i was here for it which is why i nodded very enthusiastically whilst adding “will there be pancakes?”. Chuckling was heard over my request and responded with an “of course there will be whatever you wish to be there my love” as she set me upon the floor and wrapped me within her nightgown embedded in the most beautiful smelling scents imaginable. Whilst taking me by the hand and leading me towards her kitchen as she set me upon a stool and presented me with pancakes drowned in syrup, layered in strawberries with chocolate pieces scattered but it wasn't just one pancake it was a tower of pancakes. “I'm no expert but i think this must be the fanciest pancake i have ever seen or eaten in my life” i whispered whilst still in awe to aphrodite as she chuckled at my response. This moment right now made me realise i may not want anything more for christmas than this because this is all i've ever wanted in my life, it was a magical moment for it to be on christmas eve, it was even more magical for it to be with a goddess. What made it perfect you ask? Love did.
