"Are you hungry?"
"I am. What time is it?"
I took out my cell phone to check the time: 8:15 pm.
"We're going to order something to eat. What do you prefer?"
"I can prepare something quickly."
"No, you've done a lot in the kitchen today, let's order something. How about a chicken pie? I know a place that has these pies, and they are wonderful. Oh, and they deliver. "
"Hummm ... It sounds perfect, let's order. While you order it, I'll make some orange juice for us."
"Great."
I helped Amy set up the kitchen table as soon as they delivered the pie. We were really hungry, because there was no piece of the pie left, and we also ended up with the dessert left over from lunch. We tidied up the kitchen and went to sit in the area behind the house. She read her book, and I needed to answer some emails. She laid down on the bench and put her head on my lap.
After I finished with the emails, I watched Amy reading her book:
"Do you like reading that much?"
"Yes, very much," she replied without taking her eyes off the page she was reading.
"What else do you enjoy doing so much?"
She closed the book, and looked at me smiling:
"I also really like teaching, cooking and knitting."
"Knitting? Isn't that just for old grandmothers who make sweaters that are smaller than their grandchildren actually wear?"
"Funny. No, it is not so. I make pretty sweaters, and in the right size."
After her argument, she got up from my lap and sat next to me. I felt a huge emptiness, I wanted to pull her back onto my lap, but then she wrapped her arms around my waist and looked me straight in the eye:
"I can also really enjoy doing other things, such as: being hugged with you like this, or taking a shower with you, or ..."
She put her mouth to my ear, and said:
"... having sex with you all night long can become the thing I most enjoy doing."
She kissed my neck and bit the skin very lightly. I pulled Amy onto my lap, got up from the bench we were sitting on, with her still on my lap, and her legs wrapped around my waist. We went straight to the room. I put Amy sitting on the bed. I took off my shirt. She pulled me by the waist of the pants, I took her face with my hands to kiss her; she pulled my sweatpants along with the boxers. I lifted her off the bed and took off her top, pulled her closer to me with one arm, and with the other hand I removed her shorts with her panties. I put her back on the bed. She put her hand between us and I felt a chill in my belly when she started to raise and lower her hand:
"You like it, don't you?"
"I like it, but if you continue, I'll come sooner."
She smiled so beautifully that I kissed her to have that smile just for me. I took her hand away slowly, and tried to get a condom that I had left in a drawer next to the bed:
"Let me put it on."
"OK."
I gave her enough space to put the condom on me; her eyes never left mine, and that smile never left her face. After she put it on, I spread her legs with my knee and slowly penetrated her. She pulled me down with her hands, but then I took her hands and held them above her head, and with slow movements I made her come, and so did I, after her.
***
I lay on her side, she lay on her back on the bed. I watched her breathing slow down. After a few minutes, she turned to face me and looked right into my eyes. With her fingertips, she drew the lines of my face:
"What are you doing?"
"Keeping your face forever in my memory. I'll keep it in a place of my mind that no one will know. And when I need it, I'll look for you in all my other lives. "
I closed my eyes and let her caress me with her hands. If I could, I would stop the world from spinning now, just to have it like this forever.
