Posted on | September 18, 2005 |

Daylene wakes up the next morning and kisses Jason awake.

” Hey there sweetheart. He says.

“I wish we didn’t have to go today.”

“I know. I’ve got some vacation coming up maybe we can go to Florida or something.”

“Yeah maybe.”

Jason gets up from the bed and stretches. Daylene motions to him, “Hey come here.”

She pulls him closer and they make love again.

On the ride home to Biloxi, they hold hands just enjoying each other’s company. Daylene knows this is one the she has been waiting for all her life. She has been with a lot of men and never has been with someone where everytime he touches her, she melts. She thinks that maybe they are moving to fast. And in another week the fire will die and they won’t see each other anymore. That is a part of life, though. Alot of things don’t last forever. And how many people really find there one true love. Not many and she knows that. She can’t believe that she can be one of them. Daylene wonders if he feels the same. But she doesn’t dare ask becasue she might seem a little desperate ortr something. She doesn’t want to ruin this feeling that she has. She figures she might as well enjoy while it lasts because if it does end. She wants to remember this great love.

“Daylene, can I ask you something kind of personal?” Jason asks.

“You can ask me anything you want to,” she replies.

” Uhhh, when you say I love you do you mean it because of the moment or do you actually believe that you love me? Because I really do. I figure this is what love is. I thought I was in love before but never like this.”

She smiles, “Jason, if you asked me to marry you, I would. I know we’ve only met but I sometimes I feel like we’ve known each other forever.”

” Good, I thought I was off my rocker but since you feel the same. I am glad. I don’t want to scare you away.”

“You ain’t scared me yet. “

“You want to stay with me tonight, at my place. As long as you don’t mind me getitng up at the crack of dawn to got o work.”

She slides her hand on his leg, “I think you know the answer.”

A few hours later, they arrive at his mobile home just outside of Biloxi.

“I know it ain’t much but the rent is cheap.”

“I like it.” He picks her up in his arms and carries her in the home. She laughs. He makes her dinner and turns on the radio. She helps him clean the dishes.

“Wait right here. I ‘ll be back.” He leaves her sititng on the sofa. Daylene hears the water running in the bathroom.

“Come back here Day.”

She follows his voice and sees the bath tub filled with water. He slowly undresses her and she undresses him and they both get into the tub. She sinks back into his body. As he washes her. He embraces her long and hard.

“I never want tonight to end,” Daylene softly whsipers.
