Coming Home, the Right Way

I slipped my shoes on and grabbed my door key glancing at the time on my phone. He wouldn’t be here for around another hour and I needed to keep myself busy before I ended up ripping all my clothes off and running down the hall like a crazy person.

I left the hotel room and made my way down to the lobby, glancing at my phone every few seconds like a nervous tick, I wanted Him to be safe driving but deep down I wished that He could call or send me some sort of update. Leaving me to sit in quiet wait was just part of the exchange, Him having His time to plan while I wait on my knees mentally.

I made my way to the small cafe on the first floor, gathering a few things that I felt we could benefit from so we could focus on each other and not worry about those stupid basic needs like...food, water. After somehow managing to browse the small cafe and gift shop I gathered up the goods and started to make my way back to the room. Taking my time on the way to the elevator I focused on what I could do to better prepare than I had already done in the last 2 plus hours, my feet slowly drifting me around the hard tile.

I felt Him come through the automatic doors of the noisy hotel entrance, I could never do the explanation of the feeling justice if I tried. My path back to the room had me facing away from the entrance when He passed the threshold, the sensation pulling at my slow forward momentum. I turned on my heels and gasped softly as my heart lodged itself in my throat, His eyes already fixed on me as I turned. Years of waiting I stared frozen, my breathing deepening as I melted into the eyes of my Master.

He stood in all of His perfection, His eyes seeming to convey He was experiencing the same intensity in this moment that I was. I stood seemingly paralyzed by the invisible **** that up until now I couldn’t fully feel given the distance between us in our vanilla lives, my heart raging inside me to close the mere feet that now stood between us.

Dropping the bag unceremoniously onto the floor my body sprinted forward before my mind could get on the ride. Every cell in my body alive with need as each step brought me closer and closer to what I knew without a doubt...into the arms of my soulmate.
