we start to....

...kiss softly and gently. It's the kind of romantic kissing you have when there is already a truly deep emotional connection or when two like souls have met each other and our softly exploring the boundaries of this wonderful meeting. To say the least, it was very erotic and extremely sexy and still highly romantic.

Four hours later I realized that I had dozed off a couple of times only to wake each time to V watching me sleep. *Sigh* 'What are this guys flaws?' I keep thinking to myself.

It is terribly late at this point and both of us have to work the next day, so we say our goodnights with each of us promising to call the other the next day.

When we got back in touch with each other on Wednesday we decide to get together the following evening after he and his friends have dinner. Come Thursday I get a voice mail informing me that he is heading to the gym and will be done by 7pm (2 hours later) and if I am interested that maybe we could have dinner that night. Of course I am excited because I thought we would be meeting much later. So I call him back (can you believe it, I called him!) and left him a voice message (because he was in the gym) informing him that I knew of a cute little Italian restaurant with a great wine list and if he was so inclined that we could head there for dinner.

He was so inclined and so we did head to Trombino's for dinner. Had a great little bottle of Italian wine, San Angelo / Pinot Grigio, (Tim you will have to give me your opinion of this one). After dinner we headed to Barnes & Noble so he could pick up a few books he had been looking for and then we headed back to his hotel.

Upon arriving at the hotel I pulled into a parking space but kept my seat belt on and the engine running. He had not invited me up. We chatted for a few, each with a few humorous stories to share and then we started kissing which led to a brief making out session. He had finally gotten me to make out with him in the parking lot, must be some sort of fetish of his. I shared that thought with him and we both had a good laugh over it. Forty five minutes later I said that we could have been upstairs and much more comfortable to which he replied that I was the one that had kept my seatbelt on. I remedied the situation and was promptly invited upstairs.

V had an early start the next morning so we had to promise each other that we were going to be adults and say goodnight after 30 minutes. One hour later, kissing and making out but this time we kept our shirts on, we finally had to call it a night.

I didn't get to see V again before he left town. He called and we spoke for a portion of his drive home and since then we have chatted on the phone several times and often at great length. I have been invited to come visit and maybe after the holiday season I will do just that. He will be making very brief visits (maybe one or two) to Albuquerque in the next month or two and we will likely get together while he is in town....
