mmm. home

[brightrosefox]

I opened the wood gate in front of our townhouse, and Adam was standing there in the yard. We came together with a long hug -- I am a foot shorter than him and rested my chin on his chest and he rested his chin on my head -- and we shared a lengthy, passionate kiss. Inside, he had turned off the heat and opened all the windows and doors. He was cooking a spiced broth on the stove, to cleanse the house, with things like nutmeg, vanilla, allspice, ginger, cinnamon. He was also cooking two Cornish hens on a bed of chopped onions, marinated in a dozen different spices and flavorings. Dinner will be flavorful.
Tomorrow will be a busy day. But for now, each other.
