The only butterflies she had in her stomach were from anticipation; waiting was so hard on her. Today she was meeting the man she had wanted, dreamed about, and loved for the past 3 years. Everything had to be perfect, the dress she wore had to be the one she had worn in the picture he kept by his bed, A romantic dress, soft and silky almost like a negligee, black silk with small red roses and black lace. He had fantasized and told her about it everyday day for months. And more than anything right now she wanted his fantasy to become his truth.
There had been so many times she wondered that this day would ever come. Too many breakups, and the distance between them. Always in the back of her mind belied a glimmer of hope of what may become.
So checking herself one last time in the mirror, and running the brush again through her long black hair, she picked up her purse and started toward the door hoping and praying he wouldn't let her down. He would be waiting for her downstairs ready to begin a new chapter for them.

As he waited in the hotel lobby he began to review the past three years. Meeting a woman in a chat room was never his idea of romance; he was just there to pass the time of the long winter months when it was too cold to work outside. But he did meet her there and something sparked from the moment she sent him the first hello. She wasn't like the others there and he knew, I mean how many woman in here asked what u did for a living and really meant it wanted to discuss and never once asked u to have cyber sex with them. This intrigued him and he found himself wanting to know more about whom she was why she was there and even more so what did she look like. Time passed and they would fall in and out of touch talking sometimes and then sometimes not for long periods of time. At some point they begin talking everyday, when he logged online and saw she was there it would always make his heart beat so fast. In fact his heart was beating very fast now, he was nervous and worried she wouldn't like him in the flesh as much as she did online. She wasn't a simple person and loving her wasn't a small matter, to speak the truth her personality and being was strong and it was a scary thing. She was the first to say I Love You and would probably be the first to say it today. Taking a big deep breath he turned around and was going to stand by the elevators and wait for her, but as he turned he saw the dress he recognized and then the face and he was speechless.


Part 2
As she came off the elevator he was standing there waiting for her. He was as handsome as any picture he had ever sent her. Her heart pounded and melted and exploded all at the same time. She wondered why he wasn't saying anything he just stood there as if he was in shock, but then again she knew how extremely shy he was. So she did the only thing she could do'�'�'�walking up to him smiling '�. He started to smile back '�'�..but turning red '�'�'� he was even more nervous than she thought he would be. Coming right up to him made the heat in her body rise, for as long as she had wanted him it was going to be so hard to sit thru dinner and talk without touching and wanting he was her hearts desire and he was also her body's desire. Putting her arms around his neck he naturally responded with his arms around her waist like it was meant to be this way.
And quietly she said as she looked into his beautiful blue eyes, 'Will you kiss me Jim because I have waited forever for this moment.'� He didn't say a word but he put his lips to hers and pulled her close and kissed her sweetly at first, then turning into more passionate a kiss than she had ever had. The feelings of anticipation all melted away and was replaced by a desire that just one kiss couldn't fulfill. As the kissed lingered she knew he really didn't want to sit thru dinner either. Pulling back she stared into his eyes '�'�'� oh my god she could live forever just staring into his eyes'�'�'� she loved him she didn't have to say it he knew she knew but it needed to be said so simply she just said, 'I love you and I have waited for u forever, and I don't want to wait a moment longer do you??'�

Standing there speechless and a million different things running thru his mind he knew he had done the right thing by meeting her here today. She started walking toward him and smiling, which in turn caused him to smile back and he could feel the heat thru his body rising. Just like it was the most normal thing in the world to her she walked up and put her arms around his neck and asked him to kiss her'�'� and he couldn't let the lady down, so he kissed her softly and deeply which brought a rising passion in him which he knew would not wait thru dinner or even polite conversation. He wanted her, hell he wanted to take her right there she was the woman he had wanted to make love too for years. So when she said to him 'lets not wait 'he was more than relieved. Kissing her again softly he murmured into her lips that no he couldn't wait either her loved her and wanted her right then.

They headed back toward the elevator staring into each others eyes. Knowing each what the other wanted. And anticipating being alone with each other, Each quietly hoping no one would be on the elevator with them
