Beautiful Woman

-Liberty-

He made me feel beautiful for once. I needed it.

“Sleep with me,” I said. Dan stared at me on our bed. I stepped closer.

“Sleep with me,” I said again. “Please.” I crawled onto the bed and kissed him. He just let me.

“Please,” I said. “Please.” I kissed him again. This time, he kissed me back. Dan pulled me into his arms. He kissed me on the forehead.

“Please,” I said. I climbed on top of him. Dan stared up at me. I can’t tell what he is thinking. My heart felt like it would break. No. Don’t do this. Just make love to me. Please. I need this. I’m begging you. Please.

I threw my nightgown to the floor. I only had on my panties. I grabbed onto his shirt. He took hold of my wrists. I looked into his eyes. He closed them.

“Fine,” he said. I lowered my head.

“Thank you,” I said. I leaned down and kissed him. This time, he kissed me back. He held me to his body. Yes! I needed this. Don’t let me go. Please don’t let me go. I love you.

I reached for his shirt. Dan let me do it. I am not a virgin. He isn’t one either. I have slept with someone before. It wasn’t Dan. I can’t remember his name. But it doesn’t matter. I have Dan. I need him. I love him.

He grabbed me by the waist. His fingers laced together with the edge of my panties. He kissed me again. I kissed Dan back. I pushed my tongue into his mouth. I felt myself shivering. Mmm… I needed this. When was I going to feel this again? Probably never. I need this now. Dan slid down my panties. They landed on my gown. His shirt was next to go. Same with his boxers.

I rode him under the sheets. He barely made a sound. He kept his eyes on me. My heart felt so much lighter. Dan’s gaze made me feel so small. But I love it. I have to have more. I reached down and touched his cheek. He took hold of my wrist. Dan licked my fingertips. My whole body quivered.

Nothing else matters. The world could disappear. We could die the next day. I wouldn’t care. I want Dan. I want this.

I closed my eyes to take in the moment. I don’t want it to end. Reality will come and ruin everything. I don’t want to die. I don’t want to lose Dan.

“Never let me go,” I said. He doesn’t speak. I only hear low moans. I opened my eyes. My cheeks felt flushed. My heart was beating faster as I panted.

“I love you,” I said breathlessly. Dan smiled up at me. I broke down as I came. Dan came at the same time I did. I collapsed beside him. Dan put his arm around me.

“I love you” is the last thing I hear him say before I go to sleep. He makes me feel whole and beautiful again.
