Together at Last

My mind knows that I can't make time go faster, but my body doesn't care. I woke up as if a start pistol went off, and my body kept running that race as I tried to finish up my last chores, trying to get to Fox quicker. It doesn't matter that rushing just means that I'm less efficient, and have to go back to finish things, my body wants to make time go by faster, so I can get to Fox. It's not rational, but relationships will do that to you.

After all that, I'm exhausted, but it's finally time, it's finally 10am. I don't have to wait long before the doorbell rings. I open it, and before I can even register who is at the door, I start hugging and kissing the person standing there, luckily I was right, Fox is here!

Once I allow her to catch her breath I can see that my kiss has wiped away anything that Fox was going to say, but instead her face shows a look of calm and lust. I've noticed that I have this affect on Fox, the ability to wipe away any worries and thoughts from her mind, and allow her to live in the moment. I sometimes feel bad, like I have interrupted something important, but I also know that she loves it, and I love that I can do that to her. Having a moment where it is just us, regardless of who else is there, or where we are, is a powerful thing, and something I cherish.

I break away from the embrace, and invite Fox in, but we are both eager to start our trip.

I load my things, and we are on our way. I drive so that Fox can relax, and selfishly so she can snuggle up to me on the ride. I was just expecting conversation, and snuggles on the trip, but Fox had something else in mind.
