Something New

It was an intimate beginning
Each with their own ulterior motives

She wore a beautiful form-fitting short red dress
That revealed her well contoured legs

He arrived in a pair of tailor made slacks, paired with a grey button down shirt
Accentuated with black blazer and Stacy Adams

She was dressed to draw attention to herself
And make her intentions plain and simple

His attire was impeccable
Making his appearance leave something to the imagination

He pulled out her chair with a gentleman's touch
Then proceeded to take the seat across from her

She spoke in a hushed tone as to emit delicacy
He was forward and in control throughout the encounter

Then without warning he drew his attention directly to her
He had no interest in participating in her well thought plan
Instead he wanted her to be upfront and honest
He stated, I have no time for games

She regrouped and changed her tone
Determined not to be outdone
Adjusted her tone an octave
And spoke with exquisite clarity so nothing could be misinterpreted

They began with their current place in life
He explained his take on politics and education
She retorted on how she was furthering her education
Without being politically acclimated to any particular situation

He shared his goals for the future including his plan for preparation
Including all the pitstops he intended to make along the way
She was excited about her own future
Finding it refreshing that he cared enough to listen or inquire

As they sat sipping coffee and sharing an occasional laugh
Both realized that there was more than just a dinner at the table
He noted her maturity and self-confidence in the way she spoke
She admired his strength and determination for being more than just ordinary

As he escorted her to where she was parked, there was admiration in his heart
For he felt he could embark on a adventurous journey with this beautiful creature
Being unafraid to make his intetions known, he was prepared for whatever hand was dealt
And he just went for it and stated his claim with remarkable confidence

Initially she was not quite prepared for the detour the evening took
But while taking this casual stroll with this gentleman
She was assured of one thing, she wanted to know more of this specimen
And she was prepared for where ever this venture took her emotionally

As they approached her vehicle, he made light of the situation
He moved in and tenderly placed a soft, gentle kiss along her cheek
It was the most romantic first date gesture she had ever encountered
And it practically made her feel as if she was in a parallel dimension

As he was about to remove his muscular structure from her personal space
She would be the one to close the space planting more than just a casual peck
But instead providing him with a kiss so seductive that all he could do was exhale
And ensure that she was secured safely within her vehicle before turning away

She knew as she watched him make his exit that there would be another beginning
And he knew that this encounter would be the beginning of something
Exactly what he wasn't sure but he was excited about discovering what it was
So with each step he thinking of her and she thinking of him, they smiled at the anticipation of something new
