Less Than Perfect Circumstance Read Free Page B

sad?” Kelvin asked.
    Damn, he loved to ask that question ; and a dumb question at that! What did he think I was going to sa y? Oh baby, I’m glad you’re moving. I’m glad I won’t have you to spend my time with. My thought was long.The truth is , I was lying on Kelvin’s chest, looking into his eye s, and I already missed him. Kelvin had been asking m e to be a big boy about our decision; I was finding it hard to be a big anything.
    “Baby, I’m really going to miss you.”
    I clasped my h ands across Kelvin’s chest, rested my chin on top of them, and stared deeper into his eyes.
    “I’m going to miss you too, baby. I hope you’re not mad,” Kelvin responded, closing his eyes momentarily.
    “No, I’m not mad. And even if I we re, the decision has been made.”
    “Well, if you have to be mad at anyo ne one, I’m a good place to start. Just remember I love you, and don’t miss me too much.”
    “Listen , Kelvin. W e made a decision, and no matter what happens, it’s one we both have to live with.”
    Kelvin smiled and hugged me even closer. He had assured me everything wa s going to work out between us. I had never been in a long distant relationship, and although I was reluctant, I was wi lling to try. As much as I love d Kelvin, I was willing to try anything.
    W hile Kelvin showered, I lay in bed, on my back , with my eyes closed, trying not to think of how different things were going to be without him . I wasn’t sure which part of being with Kelvin I wa s going to miss the most, but I certainly wasn’t looking forward to find ing out. What wa s I going to do with all the extra time?
    Since Kelvin and I became exclusive, everything with us was routine. Several times a week, my evenings ended with him , and my mornings began next to him. Kelvin was there when my days didn’ t go as planned, and when I took time away from the office, I knew I had a lunch date whenever he requeste d it, as long as his schedule allowed.
    Although he had a long drive ahead of him, Kelvin took his time getting ready. He stayed in the shower longer than usual. When I got tired of thinking , I spent time at the bathroom with my head leaned against the door, staring at Kelvin’s sexy silhouette. After he showered, Kelvin came into the bedroom ,asked if I was ok, and kissed me on my forehead.
    I was lying there, motionless, watching Kelvin as he dressed . I watched him massage his abs and then his chest with lotion, being very careful not to miss a spot. His back was the hardest to reach because of his newly acquired muscles and loss of flexibility. Whe n Kelvin asked me to lotion his back for him, I jumped at the opportunity to touch my man’s naked body one more time. I would have done anything to prolong hi s departure.
    As I massaged Kelvin’s shoulders, I thought of the many massages I had given him when he came home from a long day at wor k, or a hard workout at the gym that left him in pain and hardly able to move. Kelvin would drop his gym bag in the foyer, and undress usually before he reached the bathroom. Then , while the bathtub was filling with water, he would stand in the bedroom door and ask me to join him.  We would sit, usually with Kelvin’s body between my legs, and massage his body until he was completely satisfied. This I was going to miss.
    After kissing Kelvin several times on the back of his neck, Ifelt my manhood rise in excitement . I glanced at the clock and soon real ized time was my rival. S ince Kelvin didn’t object to my advances , I continued my aggression, kissing him more pas sionately. We enjoyed the sensual pleasure until Kelvin received a phone ca ll he couldn’t ignore. If I wasn’t mad before, I was mad now .
    When Kelvin finished his conversation, we knew we woul dn’t be able to finish what we had started. Act ually we could, but it would only make Kelvin’s leaving that much harder. With t he taste of Kelvin still on my lips, I sat and watched him as he dressed for his
