The man of my dreams stood there, his back to me this time, giving me the opportunity to look at him for any hint of memory. His straight brown hair had recently been cut. Despite the cool temperature, he wore an old t-shirt that seemed to fit over his broad back. The jeans he wore were faded and cupped his butt as if that style of denim had been invented only for him. My stomach fluttered as he turned around, offering a large grin. Had he been waiting for me?
"I'm so glad to find you here," I said, walking over to him.
He held his arms out and I eagerly stepped into his embrace. It had been so long since I'd experienced this warmth from another person. "I was waiting for you."
"Can you tell me your name now?"
He shook his head and stepped back. I wanted to stay against his chest. Having him against me washed all of the negativity from my life. "Remember what I asked of you?"
"Yes. You want time." I turned my back to him. "I never feel this sensation with anyone else."
