“So, in this mini-basketball game, whoever wins gets to ask the other person for one favor to do anything,” he proposed.
“Anything?”
“Yes, within reason. You're not going to tell me to strip down here, and I’d do that.” I burst into laughter at that comment.
“Your mind works in a very weird way.”
“I guess so.” He shrugged. “So, what do you say?”
“You're on.”
“Wow, you sound very confident,” He noted.
“Maybe cos I know something that you don't. I don't think you're gonna win this.”
“I'm pretty alright at basketball.”
“Yeah, on an actual basketball court. But this is different. I think you'd be surprised.”
“Okay, okay. We’ll see.” In this game, the person who shot the most into the hoops within the given time would win. Unbeknownst to Ronald, however, I had been playing this game since I was a kid. A pro at it now.
“Ladies first,” Ronald said, gesturing at the basket and bowing.
“Nah. You can go first.”
“Come on, since you’re so good,” he spurred me on, and I decided to go along with it.
I began shooting my hoops. I missed two and got the rest when the time finished. Turning to him, I noticed he had a comical expression. Ronald’s mouth might have been on the floor if it wasn't being held by his jaw. He looked stunned. His eyes fixated on the basket while he remained unable to speak.
“Your turn,” I said with a smirk. Ronald whistled, clearly impressed. He tried his best and missed 10 but made all the rest within the time frame. He shot more than me though by five because he wanted to use quantity to overcome a quality.
“I guess I win,” I mused with a triumphant look while moving closer to him.
“I guess you do. So, what do you want? Whatever it is, if I can do it, I will.”
“You know what I want.” I gave him a naughty smile.
“Then you might as well save this request for another time because what you want, I am going to give you right now without you needing to ask.” He leaned closer to me, his eyes fixated on every facet of me. I loved it so much. I loved being around Ronald, his scent, his aura, his being. Everything felt like it was made precisely for me. We had had fun the entire night yet, it felt like I had known him forever.
He leaned in and I stood on my toes to go higher. My eyes closed, letting me soak in the moment.
And then it happened.
Our will lips came together in blissful harmony, and I could feel the shock of ecstasy and pure affection coursing through my veins. I’d never felt such a potent feeling before. Last time, it was primal and passionate. This time, the kiss made me feel loved, wanted, and sensual. An intimate connection between two spirits.
He kissed me with wanting like he couldn't get enough, and neither could I. Yes, kiss me more. I wanted as much of him as I could get, forever. Was this what people meant when they said with the right person, you could feel it down to your merry bones; that you were made for this person as if they were the missing piece in your jigsaw puzzle?
We had kissed before and it was great, leaving me unable to think about anything else, but getting to know him today made me truly appreciate Ronald. I didn't want to say it, but I could feel it creeping inside me or maybe it already lay there, and I’d been blocking myself from knowing it until this very moment. What I felt for this man went way beyond strong feelings of affection or infatuation. The way he talked about his daughter, the way he looked at life in general.
I loved him.
And maybe it took this day and this kiss for my mind to fully realize it. Now that I did, though, there could be no going back.
We stopped kissing, and he smirked at me, rubbing my temple lovingly with his thumb. The way the lights in the area perfectly encapsulated his face for my viewing pleasure led me to feel like the luckiest woman alive.
“Wanna get outta here?”
His tongue in my mouth, my arms around his neck. We continued to kiss after entering his living room. After the date, Ronald asked if I wished to see his place, and I accepted. Immediately we got into his compound and opened the door to the anteroom, we rushed one another. Every kiss made me fall deeper into his spell. It had to be a spell for it to be this good.
