One More Night

Is it possable to have a one night stand with someone you've been married to for five years? Thats a bit what it felt like.

She had said she wanted a divorce. We thought we both wanted it to be over. She would leave for her mothers in the morning.

But, laying there, in the dark, it somehow still felt right. Maybe it was because it was familiar, having her body heat there, or the smell of her shampoo, stirred by fan flowing around me. Whatever it, was, I reached out to hold her. I did it slowly, making sure it was ok, just like when I'd first known her. She turned and kissed me, lightly and first, but then more firmly, more passionatly, her fingers gripping my scalp. I knew she was leaving in the morning, never coming back, but I didn't care.

I regret a lot of things that happened in those five years, the worst moment was when I woke up to find her gone. But, the first night, and the last, will be treasured moment for me, forever.
