I had Amy masturbate this morning, before getting out of bed.
She had a challenging day ahead, and I wanted to clear her mind, keep her ready for what would come later. After she cums, she begs me to fuck her, but I refuse. I want to photograph her tonight, I have a shot planned, and I don't want to lose my edge. I want to lust all day for her, so I am ready when the moment comes, so that my eye is keen.
"I will fuck you tonight," I tell her.
Alas, the day did not go as planned for her.
A bit of stress over a small disagreement the two of us shared the night before, a mix up at work, and tears before breakfast were not the best of omens.
And yet, slowly, the day righted itself.
We went grocery shopping together, Amy and I. I had her hold on to my shirt as I pushed the cart, like a little girl, and kept a watchful eye on her to make sure she didn't wander off. We selected wines for the evening, red for me, white for her, as she felt the startings of a migraine. Well, mostly Amy chose. I am a newcomer to the world of wine, a Visigoth banging at the gate, while Amy speaks with knowledge of bouquet, breathing, tannin, and all the other mysterious incantations used to summon up the beneficent Bacchus.
The sun faded quickly as we started the charcoal in the grille, the final golden moments mellowing into stars as we set bare feet to warm saltillo. Amy wore just a sarong, her garment of choice when given the chance, and we opened the wine. I lit two candles that flickered in the warm gloaming breeze, and Amy checked the salmon.
Dinner dwindles on into the night.
We talk instead, quiet with each other. The moment, the light I wanted for my shot is past. I am not prepared. I have held on to my lust for no purpose, it seems.
And yet, Amy moves in the candlelight. The warm breeze touches her hair, the edges of her sarong seem to melt, to glow in the warmth of this California evening.
She stands to clear things away, and I see a moment in this light. The camera is near.
I ask her to open her sarong, and she does, quiet and obedient.
Amy at Dinner Tonight
She reties her sarong, but all I can see is her.
A train rolls past.
Amy heads upstairs to sleep, and I follow shortly thereafter. She lies awake yet, and together we move close.
"I love your body," she says quietly, and I can feel how she closes her eyes and enjoys the moment.
Lying beside her, I have an arm cradling her neck, and with the other I caress the top of her breasts.
"i like my body when it is with your body..." I whisper to her.
"ee cummings," she breathes quietly. "I love his poems." Her voice is soft, quiet. A little girl's voice. "When I was young I typed out for myself a poem of his I found. I had no idea who he was"
She thinks for a moment, then quotes as best she can as sleep approaches:
"the boys i mean are not refined...
they come with girls who bite and buck
who cannot read and cannot write
who laugh like they would fall apart
and masturbate with dynamite."
She has maybe two minutes more, all in silence. I move my wandering hand from the top of her breasts and rest it on her shoulder. Her breathing deepens, set free from her mind.
I wrap my arms around her now, rolling her onto her side, enveloping her body. One hand holds her wrist, the other cradles her breast. She lies on her side, how she so often loves to sleep, one nipple pressed into the sheets, the other nestled between the thumb and forefinger of my hand with her breast spilling over.
I can awaken Amy and her need by simply pressing my fingers together. I can make her wriggle, arouse her, fuck her, and start it all just with a little finger play on her nipple.
I let my lips kiss gently along her neck, and sample her ear. She smells wonderful, and a breath takes her in deep.
I close my eyes.
There is a time to fuck, and a time to hold.
And together we go gently into that best of nights.
"i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite a new thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body. i like what it does,
i like its hows. i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones, and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like, slowly stroking the, shocking fuzz
of your electric fur, and what-is-it comes
over parting flesh . . . . And eyes big Love-crumbs,
and possibly i like the thrill
of under me you quite so new"
