The Kiss We Never Finished

Creator’s Note: This version is written directly for him. The woman narrates as “I,” while “you” places the male reader inside the fantasy.

Our first kiss happened beneath the back stairs at school. I was in seventh grade, you were in eighth, and you carried yourself like that one year made you a grown man. I had never kissed anyone before you. You seemed to know what you were doing, but when I looked up at you, you stopped talking and rubbed your palms against your pants. You asked first, I nodded, and our mouths touched for a few nervous seconds before voices in the hallway sent us running in opposite directions. We found our way back beneath those stairs more than once, stealing kisses between classes and after dismissal, but that was as far as we ever went.

Almost forty years later, you waited inside room 214 of a motel beyond the city limits while I stood outside your door, resisting the urge to pull my shirt away from my stomach again. You had seen pictures, but I chose those pictures. I knew which angles I liked, which clothes made me comfortable, and when to crop a photograph before sending it. We had never video-called or spent an afternoon sitting across from each other. You had never watched me move through an ordinary day. Now I was standing outside your room with nothing between you and the rest of me.

I was a thick woman with adult children and a body that had changed while I raised them, worked, loved, and got older. Some of the weight arrived gradually. More came during grief, when getting through the day mattered more than what the scale said. I could understand how it happened and still feel nervous about letting you see me. You kept telling me you wanted me, but standing in that hallway, I wondered how much the photographs had left for you to imagine.

We had chosen somewhere neither of us knew anyone, far enough from our lives to pretend the night existed by itself. We both knew that was bullshit. You had someone waiting in the life you built, and I carried a love and loss that would always be part of mine. A motel room could give us privacy, but it could not make us innocent. I looked toward the parking lot once before lifting my hand to knock.

You opened the door before my knuckles reached it. For a moment, I only looked at you, taking in the gray at your temples and the body time had given you. Your eyes moved over me too, and my fingers tightened around the strap of my purse. I could not tell what you were thinking. That was the part making my stomach turn.

I stepped inside and waited for the door to close before asking, “Are we really doing this?” You reminded me that we had decided that before driving out there, but I folded my arms across my stomach and admitted, “It felt different when you were looking at pictures. Now I’m standing here.” Your attention dropped to my arms before you took my hands gently and asked whether I thought you did not know my body had changed.

I looked down at our joined hands and told you that knowing and seeing were different things. “I’ve gained weight. Over the years, and after my husband died. I know you’ve seen pictures, but you haven’t seen all of me.” Saying it aloud made my face warm, although I kept going. “I wanted to come. I just got scared you’d open the door and realize I wasn’t what you pictured.”

You stayed close without trying to undress me or rush past what I had said. “I opened the door,” you answered, waiting until I looked at you. “You’re here. I’m still glad you came.” My shoulders eased a little, but my hands remained tense in yours. When you asked whether you could kiss me, I nodded and stepped closer myself.

Your mouth touched mine carefully. I had spent so much time imagining this that the first few seconds felt strangely difficult to understand. Then your hand moved behind my neck, my fingers caught your shirt, and I opened my mouth beneath yours. The kiss deepened. I forgot the purse still hanging from my shoulder until it slipped between our bodies and made both of us laugh.

You took it from me and set it on the dresser without going far. I caught your hand when you turned back, bringing you close enough to kiss again. This time, there was nothing hesitant about the way I reached for you. Your hands settled around my waist as you walked me backward until my shoulders met the door. A quiet sound escaped me when your body covered mine, and your fingers tightened against my hips.

You slowed when my grip on your shirt became firmer, then held my face between your hands and asked if I still wanted this. I told you, “I have wanted this longer than I’m willing to admit.” Your mouth curved before you said I could admit it later. I laughed, and you kissed the sound from my mouth while your hands slipped beneath my shirt.

I opened the first few buttons of yours before losing patience and pulling it over your head. My palms traveled over your chest, feeling the warmth of you beneath my hands instead of trying to imagine it through a photograph. When I asked whether you were nervous, you admitted you were terrified. I smiled and answered, “Good,” which made you laugh before you caught my mouth again.

You lifted my shirt slowly, giving me time to stop you. I raised my arms, but the second the fabric cleared my head, I reached for it again. You let it fall behind you and caught my hands. I said your name like a warning, then looked down at myself and told you that you had not even seen me yet.

“I’m looking,” you said, and the simplicity of it made me lift my eyes. You were watching my face, waiting while I decided whether to let my hands fall. I lowered them eventually, although my shoulders remained tense as you unclasped my bra. When it slipped away, I fought the urge to cover my breasts and stomach. You stepped closer, kissed my shoulder, and rested your hands at my waist.

I watched you for the hesitation I had feared. Instead, your mouth moved toward my breast, and my fingers slid into your hair when you took my nipple between your lips. My breath caught. You covered my other breast with your hand, moving your thumb over the nipple while you sucked harder. When your teeth grazed me, I held you closer rather than pulling away.

You moved to the other side and gave it the same attention until my body grew restless against yours. My hands found your belt, but you caught my wrists and brought them behind my back. When you reminded me that it was your turn, I told you to stop talking and use it. You laughed against my neck before releasing my hands and opening my pants.

I helped you push them down with my underwear, then stepped free while holding your shoulder. You lifted me onto the dresser beside the television, and the cool surface made me shift beneath your hands. My thighs opened before you asked. For a second, I became aware of how exposed I was beneath the motel light, but then your fingers moved through my wetness, and the thought disappeared.

You circled my clit slowly, watching my face while I held the edge of the dresser. When my hips began chasing your hand, you stopped. I opened my eyes and warned you not to start teasing, but you pushed one finger inside me and said you had waited too long to rush. My complaint broke into a moan when you added a second and curled them until my thighs tightened around your hips.

I was getting close when I reached for your wrist. You stopped immediately, searching my face, but I guided your other hand toward my jaw. I told you what I wanted and made it clear that two taps meant you needed to release me. You repeated it back before allowing your hand to settle where I had placed it. I held your wrist as your fingers began moving inside me again.

You asked whether I was all right, and I answered yes before you told me to keep looking at you. I tried, although the movement of your fingers made it difficult. Your mouth found mine while you worked deeper, catching my sounds until my body began shaking. My nails dug into your shoulder as I came. Your hand left my neck to steady me at the waist, and I leaned against you while you kissed beneath my jaw.

I was still catching my breath when your mouth began moving down my body. I asked where you were going and reminded you that you had already made me come. You told me you knew because you had been there, then spread my thighs and put your mouth on me.

The first touch of your tongue made me jump. I caught your shoulder, and you paused until I told you to continue. You licked slowly, giving me time to settle into the sensation before my hips began moving toward your mouth. When you sucked my clit between your lips and slid two fingers back inside me, my hand tightened in your hair.

I had wondered about your mouth for years, but none of those thoughts prepared me for looking down and finding you there. Your eyes lifted to mine while your tongue moved, and I had to turn my face away when the pleasure sharpened. My thighs tightened around your head. I came again with one hand twisted in your hair and the other covering my mouth.

You rose between my thighs, caught the hand hiding my sounds, and told me you had waited too long to hear me. I was still trying to breathe properly, but I had enough attitude left to ask whether you planned to fuck me or keep giving speeches. You told me you might do both. I laughed while you helped me down from the dresser, then caught your face and kissed you, tasting myself on your mouth.

You walked me toward the bed without breaking the kiss for long. When the backs of my legs met the mattress, I sat and pulled you closer by your waistband. You kissed me once more before reaching for the condom on the nightstand. We had already discussed testing, contraception, and boundaries during the conversations that led us there. Neither of us needed another complication following us home.

I watched you roll it on, then moved farther onto the bed as you settled between my thighs. You asked one more time if I was sure. I touched your cheek and answered yes, keeping my eyes on you as you positioned yourself.

You pushed inside slowly, and my mouth opened beneath yours as my body stretched around you. My fingers tightened against your back. Once you were fully seated, you stopped with your forehead resting against mine, your shoulders tense and your breathing uneven. I wrapped my legs around your waist and asked whether you were okay.

You admitted that you were trying not to embarrass yourself after all that buildup. I laughed before pulling you into another kiss, relieved enough to feel my own nerves loosen. “You’re doing fine,” I told you, and your answering laugh broke against my mouth when I moved beneath you.

The first few strokes were slow because I could not stop looking at you. I touched your face as you moved inside me, following the lines beside your eyes and the gray at your temples. You were familiar and completely new, and the fullness of you kept interrupting every thought before I could finish it. You kissed me between breaths until I tightened my legs around you and told you to stop being careful.

You gave me one harder stroke and asked if that was what I meant. My answer came against your mouth, breathless and impatient, telling you to do it again. The next thrust moved the mattress. My nails caught your back, and I kissed you before you could ask another question.

You fucked me harder, one arm beneath my hip while the other held you above me. I met every stroke. Somewhere between our first kiss and this, I stopped trying to arrange my body into something I thought you wanted to see. My thighs spread wider, my stomach met yours, and when your hand moved over my hip, I leaned into it instead of pulling away.

I kept reaching for your mouth. Whenever you lifted your head to breathe, I followed, and you came back willingly. You kissed me with your hand against my cheek, then beneath my ear, then on my mouth again when I said your name. I had imagined sex with you, but I had not expected to feel this greedy about the kissing.

I brought your hand back beneath my jaw, and you watched my face while your hips moved deeper. My fingers stayed around your wrist. When I asked for more, you changed the angle, and my back lifted from the mattress. “Just like that,” I told you. “Do not stop.” Your mouth found mine again while the headboard began striking the wall.

The cheap lamp shook on the nightstand. I felt myself getting close and tightened my legs around your waist, but you slowed enough to make me feel every stroke. I opened my eyes and glared at you, warning you not to play with me. You told me you had waited almost forty years for this and intended to feel it. I pulled you closer and ordered you to make me come.

Your hand left my jaw and closed around my waist as you fucked me harder. The orgasm caught me before I could say anything else. My mouth opened against yours while my body pulsed around you, and I clung to your back until the shaking began to ease. You stayed close, kissing my cheek while I tried to get enough air to tell you how good it felt.

I kissed your neck and told you to come. Your breath caught beside my ear, and your next few strokes lost their rhythm before you buried yourself deep. You came with your face against my shoulder, holding me while I felt the tension move through you and slowly release. I kept my arms around your back while the old air conditioner rattled beside the window.

You pulled out carefully, removed the condom, then returned with a warm washcloth and water. I watched you clean me, unexpectedly quiet after everything I had said while you were inside me. When you asked what I was thinking, I told you that you were being sweet. You reminded me that you had always been sweet, and I laughed in your face before telling you that you absolutely had not. You looked offended until I caught your hand and brought you back onto the bed.

I settled against your chest and traced the gray hair there while your fingers moved over my shoulder. Neither of us mentioned what waited beyond the motel door. We knew. The lives we built had not disappeared because we finally answered an old question. My grief was still mine. Your commitments were still yours. I listened to your breathing, aware of the phone sitting beside my purse and unwilling, for another few minutes, to look at it.

Your palm rested against my stomach, warm and still. Earlier, I would have shifted beneath it or found a reason to move your hand. This time, I covered it with mine and let myself stay comfortable. When you kissed the top of my head, I closed my eyes.

Eventually, I lifted my face and asked whether I was anything like you had imagined. When you answered no, my expression changed before you could finish. You touched my cheek and told me that I was better. I rolled my eyes and accused you of being smooth, but I could not stop smiling. You started to say something else, and I kissed you before you could ruin it.

The kiss slowed as I moved over you until my knees settled on either side of your hips. Your hands found my waist, and I felt your body respond beneath me. When you asked if I really wanted to go again, I lowered my mouth toward yours and reminded you that we had almost forty years to make up. You laughed against my lips, tightened your hold on my hips, and kissed me back.

Your kiss changed as I settled over you, becoming slower and hungrier while your hands moved from my waist to my ass. I rolled my hips once and felt you beginning to harden beneath me, but instead of rushing, I kissed along your jaw and down your throat. When you asked what I was doing, I reminded you that you had already taken care of me several times. “Now it’s my turn,” I told you as I moved backward between your legs.

You watched me lower myself to the mattress, but when I reached for you, some of my earlier hesitation returned. It was not about my stomach or thighs this time. It was the realization that you would see me kneeling between your legs after nearly forty years of wondering what touching you would feel like. You noticed the pause, reached for my hand, and asked whether I was all right. I nodded, kissed your palm, and admitted, “I’m trying to understand how we got from kissing under the stairs to this.”

“We took the long way,” you answered, and the softness in your expression loosened something inside me.

I laughed, then wrapped my fingers around you and watched the humor leave your face. You were not fully hard yet, but your body responded as I stroked you. I kissed the inside of your thigh, then the base of your dick, allowing my mouth to follow the path my hand had made. Your hips shifted when my tongue moved over the head, and the sound you tried to restrain made me look up.

“You told me not to cover my mouth,” I reminded you. “That rule applies to you too.”

You started to answer, but I took you into my mouth before you could. Your words broke into a rough breath as my lips moved down your length. One of your hands found the back of my head, resting there without forcing me deeper. I worked you slowly, using my hand on what my mouth could not take while my tongue followed the sensitive underside of your dick.

I had imagined doing this during the months we spent reconnecting through messages, although I never admitted how often. The reality was warmer and more intimate than the fantasy. I could hear every change in your breathing and feel the restraint in the hand resting against my head. When I looked up, your attention was fixed on me with the same disbelief I had felt when your mouth was between my thighs.

You said my name when I took you deeper, and the sound sent a quiet satisfaction through me. I moved faster, feeling you grow fully hard against my tongue. Your fingers tightened in my hair, then immediately relaxed as if you had remembered yourself. I pulled away long enough to tell you, “You can hold me,” before taking you back into my mouth.

This time, your hand gathered my hair and guided my rhythm. You still allowed me to control the depth, but the slight authority in your grip made heat gather between my thighs again. When your hips lifted, I accepted more of you and breathed through the fullness until your body tensed beneath me.

You warned me that you were getting close, but I released you with a final slow pull of my lips and sat back. Your eyes opened, dark and frustrated, as you asked why I had stopped. I smiled and answered, “Because I’m not finished with you yet.”

I reached for another condom on the nightstand and tore open the wrapper. Your gaze followed my hands as I rolled it over you, and when I climbed back onto the bed, you instinctively reached for my waist. I caught your wrists and guided your hands to my thighs instead. “You had your turn,” I reminded you. “Now let me have mine.”

I straddled your hips and wrapped my hand around your dick, positioning you beneath me. The confidence I had found with my mouth flickered when I realized how exposed riding you would leave me. There would be no angle to choose and no part of my body hidden beneath yours. You would see my stomach, my breasts, and every movement of my face while I took you.

Your hands remained where I had placed them. You did not rush to reassure me or fill the silence with compliments. You simply watched and waited, giving me the decision the way you had all night.

I held your gaze and lowered myself onto you inch by inch.

The stretch made my mouth fall open. Your fingers tightened against my thighs, but you stayed still while my body adjusted around you. When I finally settled against your hips, your eyes closed and your head sank into the pillow.

I leaned over you and asked, “Still trying not to embarrass yourself?”

Your eyes opened with a warning in them. “Keep talking.”

I smiled as I lifted my hips and slowly sank again. “I plan to.”

Your answering laugh disappeared when I repeated the movement. I began with a measured rhythm, learning how the angle changed the fullness and how far to rise before taking you deep again. Your hands moved to my waist, but I caught one and placed it against my stomach.

Earlier, I would have moved your hand. Now I kept it there while I rode you.

Something changed in your expression when you understood what I was doing. Your thumb moved over my skin, not hiding or reshaping anything, only feeling the body above you. I placed my hand over yours and moved faster, allowing my stomach to soften, my breasts to move, and my thighs to spread as widely as I needed.

“You’re beautiful,” you told me, and this time I did not argue.

I rolled my hips and took you deeper, watching your jaw tighten beneath the pleasure. When your hands returned to my waist, I allowed you to guide me. You lifted your hips to meet every descent, making the mattress shift beneath us while my rhythm became less controlled.

I leaned forward and kissed you, but you caught my face before I could retreat and kept my mouth against yours. The kissing became as greedy as it had been during the first round, our breath breaking between us while our bodies moved together. You slid one hand between my thighs and found my clit, circling it with your thumb as I rode you.

Pleasure tightened quickly. I lifted my head and told you I was close, but you continued touching me while your other hand steadied my hip. I tried to slow down, overwhelmed by the intensity, but you reminded me, “You said it was your turn. Take what you came for.”

I sat upright and did exactly that.

My knees dug into the mattress as I rode you harder, chasing the pressure building beneath your thumb. Your eyes stayed on me, taking in every part I had once feared letting you see. When the orgasm reached me, my rhythm broke and my body clenched around you. I said your name as the pleasure moved through me, no longer trying to quiet myself or arrange my body into something smaller.

You held my hips and thrust upward through the last waves, your breathing turning rough as you neared your own release. I kept moving for you, even as my thighs trembled, until your fingers tightened around my waist and you came beneath me.

I lowered myself onto your chest when neither of us could continue. Your arms closed around my back while I rested there, both of us breathing hard enough to make the other rise and fall. After a moment, you kissed my temple and asked whether we had finally made up for the kiss beneath the stairs.

I lifted my head and studied you before answering, “Not even close.”

Your tired laughter filled the small motel room as I kissed you again.
