I’ve never really understood so many men’s aversions to romance.
Knowing that you’d be arriving back to our new home after spending a few days up in LA,
I found so much pleasure in preparing for your arrival.
Going out and getting 18 roses
Creating a heart at our home’s entrance with the petals
Creating a trail of rose petals down the hallway, up the spiral staircase
down another hall and into our room
leading up to our bed
Spreading the remaining petals on the sheets
With a single rose still on its stem laying across the foot of the bed.
Lighting candles
Starting the fireplace
Preparing the lighting to create the right mood
More candles in the bathroom
Running a hot bath to be ready just in time for your arrival
The setup process itself was quite pleasurable
The look on your face when you walked in further made it worth every effort.
Making love to you begins long before the clothes ever come off…
