Switzerland
You knew you were going to Switzerland when you got Adam's letter, "Come see the Matterhorn." Well, you hoped that meant Switzerland, with Adam you never know.
Adam's driver has dropped you off at the door of a storybook chalet near the Alps, surrounded by snow under a clear starry night. As he drives away, you knock on the door. The door swings open under your touch. Golden flames in a stone fireplace provide the room's only light. You spot a note, pick it up and in Adam's handwriting it reads: A present for you in the bedroom.
You walk to the open bedroom door and laying on the bed is a beautiful nightgown, satin spaghetti straps and the rest completely made of lace. You undress and put it on.
"You're a vision," Adam's voice says from behind.
You turn, face him, smile and bow. "Why thank you sir."
Adam is wearing a green satin robe. He moves to you as you straighten up, takes your hand and touches his lips to it. Adam pulls you to him and kisses you for a long time. When he breaks the kiss, he smiles at you.
"So what trick have you planned for me tonight?"
"No trick. I've just missed you. I've been gone far too long this time." His arms slide around your waist, he puts his cheek to yours and whispers in your ear. "I've been going mad not being able to touch you, not feeling your touch on me. If you hadn't come, I would've canceled the rest of the tour to be with you. I had to be with you."
When he pulls back, his gaze is intense. He takes your hands and draws you into the living room, towards a blanket and a pile of pillows in front of the fireplace.
Adam cups your chin and kisses you. You reach to his waist and undo the loose knot in his robe there. It falls open. He takes his hand from you just long enough to shrug the robe to the floor. His hands touch your face again as you bring yours to the soft hair on his chest.
Adam's hands slide down your neck and then onto your shoulders. He hooks his thumbs under your straps, moving them to the side. With one gentle tug, the gown joins his robe and you press into each other. He brings his lips to your throat and you kneel together. He pulls you gently down on him and then rolls onto you.
Adam's hands trace your every curve, not an inch of your skin escapes him. You return the favor. Your lips meet his again. He nudges your leg aside with his knee and you fuse. You move in rhythm with your heartbeats, basking in the thrill of just being together, and finally the ecstasy of deliverance.
As your bodies separate, you kiss for a while longer. Then, you move your cheek to his chest and begin to doze off. Adam embraces you snugly as if he were afraid you'd disappear if he didn't hang on. An uncharacteristically possessive gesture that makes you feel comfortingly wanted. You fall to sleep wearing a smile.
