He had been unable to utter what response was burning red hot inside. Anything else would have matched his feelings much closer. He got nervous, the "Yes, I do." got trapped in his throat, cutting the supply of oxygen to the brain.
It is, to this day, abundantly clear that he should have replied differently. "L'effet de l'escalier", the French call it or "hindsight is 20/20" as say the Americans. Within, he knows he does want to make love to her. Not just sex, but love. To look deep into each other's eyes while undressing, lusty moist warm kisses throughout the skin, rubbing body parts all the while holding her chin up to his mouth, grabbing those butt cheeks with both hands searching for the dampness below. The clothes that once upon a time covered their bodies now tangled up on the floor. Slowly falling onto the bed and into the fresh bedsheets, her skin and nipples erupting as her body hits the mattress like a feather. Laying naked by her side, encompassing her torso with his arms to fight the chill away would only make her shiver in anticipation of what would be yet to come. With a long, wet, hot kiss lean over her to lick and nibble on her nipples, under the breasts, the cleavage, his tongue making its way south onto the Venus mound and into the guardians of her chalice. There, he would take his time and have a field day with her red start button, gently pushing and pulling, feeling her twitch and sigh and moan. She would grab his hair and pull him even nearer, his beard tickling her inner thighs, it all overwhelming her senses.
You would pull me up with a sweet sexy smile and whisper "I want you inside me now.". I would enter your humid welcoming doorway, pin your hands above your head with my hands and thrust me inside you, over and over and over again until one or both of us climaxed, the other one giggling. We will then, in quick shallow breaths pronounce our "I like you a lot".
Now we cuddle, my nose in your hair, your back to my chest, your ass to my waist.
