Excerpt:
White beams of moonlight splayed themselves across the walls of
Patrick’s opulent marshmallow bedroom in his high class contemporary New York penthouse apartment, shining in through the
floor to ceiling windows. It was four o'clock in the morning and I was wide awake. Jet lag
had gotten the best of me and my internal time clock was still running on Paris time. Rolling to my side, I propped myself up
on one elbow to admire Patrick snoozing away comfortably next to me, all naked
and handsome. The heat of the summer graciously allowed me an unshrouded view
of his hunky body. No need for covers in this bedroom, thank you Mr. Summer
Heat.
As I laid there feeling all warm and right, my eyes trailed around
the room, which was quite visible in the spotlight of the moon. Pausing at one
of the matted photographs on the wall, I curiously cocked my head to the side. A
huge smile spread across my face as it dawned on me, that among the black and
white artwork that peppered the wall, one was of the Eiffel Tower in Paris . What a coincidence. I had never noticed it before. I had once
read that when a person experiences a coincidence in their life, it’s God
winking at them. It’s like knowing that you are in the right place at the right
time and that's exactly how I felt in this moment laying next to Patrick. Sometimes
the universe whispers to us, and we need to remind ourselves, not to forget to
click the shutter. I looked over at him again and wished I had a camera to
freeze this moment for eternity much like the photographs on the wall.
We are all looking for something, for someone, for anyone, until
the right person comes along, as if sent on a moonbeam from heaven above, and
we can see through ourselves and back again in the eyes of our true love. I
smiled and nestled into the sheets, hoping the movement might stir him to
wakefulness.
I loved the look of his skin, stretched tightly over a pack of
muscles, calling for my touch. Last night had been incredible. He knew how to
work magic on me and touch the right spot at the right time. Gazing at his hard
body stretched out on the bed, his tan skin contrasting against the white
sheets, I raked my teeth over my lower lip. I couldn’t resist any longer. Why
was he sleeping and I couldn’t? I reached over and gingerly touched him on his
bulging bicep, but he just rolled away from me onto his side. Apparently, jet
lag had not affected his sleeping pattern as much as mine, since he had only
been in Paris for a few days. I pulled my hand back, sighing
with frustration as I rolled off my propped up arm onto my back, flopping my
head against the pillow.
