A Night Of Rediscovery And Rebirth

I haven't done this in so long. I don't even remember why it felt like such a big deal at the time, but here I am, married for 20 years, and my husband's out of town for business and just, well...it happened. The doorbell rang and there she was. We didn’t plan anything, but then again, we haven't planned much of anything in a long while either, not since before the kids were born. There was something about her that brought it all flooding back. She had this look on her face when I opened the door, like she knew why I answered and I didn’t even have to say anything. She stepped inside without waiting for an invitation and we just stood there for a moment, it’s not often one of us gets caught off guard by the other anymore. It was like nothing had changed between us. The tension built up quickly as if it never dissipated at all. We ended up in my bedroom, the same room that hasn’t seen this kind of activity since our kids were young enough to still sleep upstairs. As we undressed each other, there was a moment where I felt like I was back in college again with her, it’s strange how these things can come full circle. Once everything came off and she laid down on the bed, it took me a few moments just to appreciate how different our bodies were now. It made me realize that every moment before this had been leading up to this. Every encounter with my spouse over the years has led to this one, but somehow none of them have ever felt quite like this did. I entered her and we both moaned, we hadn't expected it to feel as good as it did right off the bat. I began moving slowly, not wanting anything to break this moment. The pace quickened gradually as old rhythms took over and everything became more intense. Her body was tight and warm around me, squeezing every inch of skin with each thrust, I felt her nails digging into my back as she pulled me closer. Her breasts were heavy against mine and the sounds we made echoed off the walls of my room. It didn't take long for us both to climax, bodies trembling from the rush of it all. I rolled over onto my side after catching my breath, that's when reality hit hard. There was a part of me that wished we could just stay like this forever; ignoring everything else and getting lost in each other again. I don't know what tomorrow will bring, or if something like this can happen again between us. But for tonight, it felt like being reborn, both physically and emotionally.
