The Moment When...

He was working late on a rainy night and was sick as a dog.  He hadn't slept in 24 hrs.  Hopped up on medicine, he sits to take a breather when he receives an unexpected call.  It was her.  The woman he had been bantering with for months was now ready, willing and able to take it to the next level.  She was asking for him now.  As sick and unready as he was, he felt he couldn't pass up this opportunity.  He gave her the address to the hotel he was staying in and went up to his room to ready himself for what he thought would be the best sex of his life.  All that banter, all that flirting...all that foreplay.  The time had finally come...or had it?

She arrives as sexy as he had always imagined.  She was as hungry as he had always hoped.  Her body was better than he had dreamed it would be.  He imagined this would be the moment where all the talk would manifest itself into this lust crazed reality...but in his zeal he forgot one very important point.  He was no where near the place he needed to be physically.  His lack of sleep and illness had him weak.  The medicine he was on didn't help either.  Pain killers that reduce inflammation are not good for areas that need inflaming.  Suffice to say, his grand moment fell embarrassingly flat.  Simply because he was too afraid to say "I can't tonight, I feel like shit".  He was afraid that she would consider him all talk.  He had the desire for her and something to prove on a night when neither could strengthen him enough for the task at hand.  The moment that should have been a beautiful memory is now an ego crippling nightmare.  One he will never be able to fully shake or live down.

People you must remember this.  Moments are "made".  They happen when they are supposed to.  When everything is right.  There are embers that burn high and embers that burn low.  Be patient with them.  Fan them gently.  This gentle foreplay eventually reaches a peak.  That place where the moment you've been waiting for finally happens.  Easing into that place makes it all the more perfect.  Where there is time enough to enjoy each other without distraction.  Where there is no rush to leave and no one to keep quiet for.  Where all parts are working the way they're supposed to.  Impulse is good only after you've had your moment but for your moment...do your best to keep it right.  Keep it as close to perfect as you can and I guarantee you...it will last forever...

Im out...
