Frida here again guys!
So, we're back in the road to love, I guess Anna had right, Xmas indeed it's a time for miracles.
I've been looking for someone to shed some light, not somebody just to get me through the night, and you know what? I've found it.
We decided to spend it just the two of us at Bognor, a seaside resort in West Sussex.
I was the one to choose the place, you might wonder why? Well, back in my single days I read a lot of love letters, the ones to touched me the most were the ones exchanged between Lady Diana Manners and Madame Louise de Vilmorin, they shared that kind of love one only hope to see at big screens, well, be able to know that real people loved to such extent, gave me hope and in the long run, my hope brought me back Anna, and that was all I wanted for Xmas.
We rented an old house from the Victorian Era, when we entered we barely had enough energy to pull on our nightdresses and sink into bed. We slept soundly through the night, clinging to one another for warmth.
On the second day, we awoke shivering. We decided to drag the mattress and bedding in front of the main fireplace. We spent the entire day there, tangled in the thick quilts and in each other.
It was a luxury to lie together all day - to linger on each other's lips, to leisurely stroke and kiss one another's soft skin, to memorize each scent and curve and taste and sound. We reveled in the shimmering reflections of the soft, flickering firelight dancing in each other's eyes.
As it grew dark, we turned to watch the snow falling outside the window, holding one another tightly and whispering words of love.
"You know Frida, Trying to live without your love was like to live in the longest sleepless night, I never want you to be away again"
"Look who is getting clingy" I teased her.
"I'm serious here"
"I know you are babe"
On the third day, we realized that this detour was a chance for us to have our own little Xmas celebration together. We would make it worthwhile. We wandered into the town to find Xmas decorations, returning with tinsel and holly and bright red ribbons. We tied them up all around the cabin until it sparkled more magnificently than Sweden ever had. At the end of the day, we collapsed onto the temporary bed we'd made in front of the fireplace, staring up at the wooden ceiling and holding hands.
"I'll get started the supper," Anna said, rising with a groan.
I yanked her back down, leaning in to kiss her and murmur against her lips, "Not so fast. You've been working hard."
"Rubbish. You've worked much harder than I have. I can't even reach half these places where you've tied decorations. I've got myself a tall sexy girlfriend."
She kissed me back three times, tickling my sides.
I pouted, unable to keep her down. As Anna stood up, she continued, "Besides, I'll not have you starving. You're already skin and bones as it is. No matter how much I'm tempted to pull that dress of yours off right now, I'll not do it. You stay here and build up the fire. I'm making us a proper meal."
