No, I thought. I will not open my eyes. If I do, then I must acknowledge the night has ended. I don’t want it to be morning, not yet. I want to lay here and recall the passion of the man lying next to me. He has proven to be the consummate lover by showing me he has the ability to arouse every nerve, tantalizing all my senses until I can control myself no longer and explode into a rapturous state.
Beaming through the lace curtains, the mottled sunlight plays softly upon my skin just like his caresses, each one leaving its warmth; reminding me where they were, and telling me where they have gone. Trembling, my body betrays my desire for more than just his hands. My eyes remain closed and my senses become heightened, each one competing with another, trying to overwhelm me with their cries of need.
I bury my face into the pillow, willing the minutes to lengthen, begging them to allow me more time with my lover. All too soon, I will be heading back to where I belong, and away from where I’d rather be.
Feeling him stir, I shift my body slightly signaling that I have already awakened. He turns on his side to face me, placing a hand upon my face. Slowly it moves downward, across the exposed skin of my neck, and along my arm. I roll onto my back and revel in the tenderness of his touch; one I may not feel again, as our time together is scarce and fleeting.
His hand moves across my torso and then back to my side, continuing until it reaches my hip. Pulling me towards him, he raises himself so that I end up on my stomach and partly beneath his body. I feel his hardness pressing into me, telling me he and I are of one thought. I moan in response when his lips brush against my ear, and hear the warm whispers of those things he wants to do to me during these last few moments of the dawn.
As one hand caresses my breast, the other finds its way to the wetness of my arousal. Moistening his fingers, he works his way backwards and gently lubricates that which he intends to enjoy. Our breaths quicken, as each of us anticipate releasing the increasing tension between us. Initially meeting resistance, he persists until I am stretched to the point of being able to receive him completely.
Easing himself into me, I know he has gone the full distance when his breathing stops suddenly. Holding it, he begins to pull away and not until he thrusts himself forward, does it return and begin to match the rhythmic nature of his movements.
Soon, I want more – I need more. My lover knows me as well, and in one fluid motion pulls me onto my hands and knees. Grasping my hips, he manipulates my body, ensuring we remain in perfect harmony as ecstasy draws near. He begins to push harder and faster, his breaths turning to gasps, matching my own as the pleasure of our lovemaking has reached its climax.
My cries precede his growls by only moments. If it weren’t for the fact my hips were being firmly held, I would collapse upon the bed in a quivering mass of euphoria. Instead, he continues driving into me until his own need is satiated. As his motions slow, I allow my arms to slide forward, while at the same time stretching out my legs. Neither of us wants to separate; wishing to hold onto what we have created, knowing it will cease to exist when we return to the lives waiting for us outside our hotel room door.
We lie there, back to front, skin to skin, willing time to stop, knowing that it won’t. Feeling my lovers arms about me, I close my eyes, and seize every moment, capturing them in my mind, knowing they may be all I have to remember him if we should never meet again. Tightness grips my chest, as I know that in only a few hours I will be removed from his world as well as his embrace.
The night has ended. The day begins.

jcmontgomery in reply to deliriousgirl’s comment, 4 months ago
What? You gave up smoking? Uh, I guess this equates to, “Why yes J.C., I think that perhaps your exploration into erotica is going quite well.”
::hands DG a wet beach towel and a bucket of ice.
Better?

i think this is very good…i struggle with this sort of writing cos still have to get past the ‘my mum will read it’ thought LOL!!
there’s a nice mixture of action in the body & the mind which balances it out nicely
jcmontgomery in reply to Miri’s comment, 4 months ago
Oh my Bex, same here, except my worry is my son will see these someday….blushes
I think that is why I avoid extremely graphic words and try to give the reader enough to work with in their mind….let their imagination do what my words cannot. Lovely comment as always Bex. Thank you.
Miri, 4 months ago
oh goodness never thought of that – that’s probably worse than a mum reading it!!! hey we all do it tho so i wonder why we feel like this!! i had one little thought which i bmailed you with
jcmontgomery in reply to Miri’s comment, 4 months ago
Thanks Bex, I got it and will be working on finding another word that will help that sentence flow better.
My son is an adult and I know subscribes to one of those magazines (you know the kind), however to find and read about how his mum is having those same thoughts….yeah, a bit weird isn’t it? LOL

i’ve never thought about it from the female sensation but now i have!
another great piece JC i go on to this website always hoping to see a new piece by you..keep it up!
Gayla Drummond, 4 months ago
Beautifully done, Jo. I’ve been there, sort of…not wanting to ‘wake up’, have to go with facing the new day after a great night, lol. I think you did a wonderful job of portraying that feeling.
jcmontgomery in reply to barnsy’s comment, 4 months ago
Oh dear…no pressure….lol
You are so very kind B. Wow. Thank you, thank you very much.
jcmontgomery in reply to Gayla Drummond’s comment, 4 months ago
Thank you Gayla. I had recently discussed with someone, the issues writers face when trying to understand “showing” versus “telling. It was then I realized I may not be as good a “shower” as a “teller”.
So, in a way, this is my attempt at working on becoming a better “shower”.....I guess from all the great comments, including yours, I am on the right track.
Thanks hon!!
butchart, 4 months ago
whew… i think youare pretty damn good at both…. showing AND telling…..... great read…........b

Empress, 4 months ago
wildy curious now… why does she have to return? because he has to seek her out?
jcmontgomery in reply to Empress’s comment, 4 months ago
In Distant Foreplay, she was leaving someone (boyfriend, husband) to meet this man she had met online. They had been having a “cyber” affair and now she was going to meet him to make it “real”.
This piece here, Culmination, is what follows.
Peter Evans, 4 months ago
Well I’m off for a cold shower…................maybe ;-)
Excellent follow on JC, my imagination runs rampart !!
jcmontgomery in reply to Peter Evans’s comment, 4 months ago
Glad you liked it Peter, and as you can see, my imagination likes to run on a bit too.
Thanks.
Riyllan, 4 months ago
It is a most exciting work JC. Had me UP in a second. Wonderful story… Closed my eyes and I was there.
XXXOOOXXX
jcmontgomery in reply to Riyllan’s comment, 4 months ago
Oh Riy….so glad to see you my dear. Miss you.
In a second eh? Hmmm…now that’s a compliment!
Hugs sweet one. Always so good to see you.
Empress, 4 months ago
are you sure there isn’t a third section … okay, perhaps not leaving him to join a nunnery and swear off men altogether, but something to appease my hopeless romantic side.
jcmontgomery in reply to Empress’s comment, 4 months ago
As I am a hopeless romantic too, I bet I could come up with the last part of this trilogy that apparently is meant to be. Hehe
So, we had the “Foreplay”, here the “Culmination”, so for the later….”Restoration”?—hmmmm
Damian, 8 days ago
You’re very good at this Jo; wonderfully descriptive erotic scene without any need for extreme language :)
jcmontgomery in reply to Damian’s comment, 8 days ago
Always my goal Damian. The Gift is the very first erotic piece I ever wrote, and it is then I realized I don’t need to be so graphic and yet convey something that is so beautiful, and natural…and fun…lol.
I appreciate you going to the trouble to look this up and read them. And I hope you like that first piece of mine. Not that it is my best, but it is one of my favorites.
Damian, 7 days ago
LOL, my pleasure. And I’ll go follow that link for a look too.
