The kiss

Long after their conversation was over...she still stayed in the balcony... marveling at how a stranger molded himself to be a part of her..not her life...or her dreams but her. Ohh!! how she loves him for the man he is..the way he makes her feel. Never in her life had she yearned for any man like she yearned for him now. The night grew deeper and quieter and she slipped in to the velvety memories of their first kiss.
She had known him for not too long...just as much she can count the months on her fingers...but he always gave her a feeling that they had known each other all their lives. He could read her mind, and she would always have the answer to his unasked questions. They were compatible, perfect together like a body and the soul...just unsure about who is who. Nobody could ever tell they know each other from some networking site. They loved each other's company and exchanged numbers. Suddenly their late night calls became their addiction... suddenly the became addicted to each other. She would always enjoy his swift flirting. Even before she knew she was in love. And one night on their regular late night calls she proposed him.
"I love you", she said.
He paused "I don't know what to say"
"Okay, I think its about time she must sleep", she said disappointed.
"Okay if you feel so"
"Goodnight"
"Goodnight"
And few seconds later the phone rang again
"I love you too", he said before she could even say hello
Her breath was stuck in her throat...she exhaled slowly and smiled...her first heart felt smile in ages..and so began their love story. It wasn't long before she had a chance to visit Delhi, his state.
"I want you to be the first person I see in Delhi", she said unable to contain her excitement.
"I will be there" he chimed
And the long long wait finally came to an end. Train arrived at Delhi station. In minutes she will be seeing her beloved for the first time...but he was late..a few minutes though but that seemed like a year. And finally she saw him...looking all around for her desperately...her guy...the man she is so head over heels in love with...everything else faded in the background...only he remained in her vision...And as he set her eyes on her..she slipped in to his arms for her hug of life...She was home...to her it felt like they have been meeting after a long era of separation. he put his arms around her as they made their way to the cab... to be on the way to her home...They slipped into the back seat...And they talked as the cab sped away to the destination...She put her head on his shoulders and it only felt natural...And suddenly he bend his head...touched her waiting lips with his wanting warm lips...and locked her in a kiss...their first.

She sit across in the room with her novel...while he worked over his laptop. They have been married now for two years....and after a year when they were settled into their life and work..their romance had lost its fire...Not that they don't love each other now...just they don't express it much...the chapter in her novel took her back to the memories of their first kiss...And she felt the same longing for him now...yes the fire was still burning..it just needed some air to breathe. She put her novel down and looked at him..he wasn't an Adonis...but he was handsome in a very unconventional way...his face and demeanor has a captivating charm...he was too engrossed in his laptop to notice her. She got up and went in to the bathroom...few minutes later she came out with just a towel around her...water droplets sliding from her shoulders to her arms making a smooth track...drops from her wet hairs would vanish somewhere between the tempting lines below her neck...she could see she have his attention now...She digged into his used clothes and wore a flimsy white shirt...her top two buttons undone. Walked around to his table where he was working...he couldn't take his eyes away from her...She stood close to him...so close that he could smell her skin and feel the heat in spite of the cold shower  she just took...the shirt was flimsy and wet...he could see she wasn't wearing anything underneath...he could see the two dark tempting spots on her swell...she ran a finger around his face...moved her one leg across his chair and sat on his lap astride...looked deep into his eyes...put her fingers into his hairs...pulled his face away a bit...bent her head to his...and put her warm lips over his stunned ones...for a long tantalizing kiss...of that of a lover.
