Coffee

Someone once said that marriage ruined the art of being in love. Thank god no one told my wife.She may never have some up coffee night.That has become one of my favorite nights.

It all started on what I thought was going to be a normal Tuesday. My wife is the one most people think of as the stronger one in our relationship. I’ve always liked strong self confident woman who still find the time for romance so we do call each other at lunch just to check in and see how the other is doing.This call was a little different. She called to say that she had run some errands and couldn’t wait to see what I thought. I’m not overly picky about how my wife spends money so this did get me more then a little alarmed and in a slight rush to get home. What on earth was she so desperate to show me?

I came home to a much different picture then the one I had imagined that day at work. The house had a softer more relaxed and romantic feel then I had felt in a long while. There where two water guns on the table both painted a glittery gold. My wife came up behind me and said that she had seen them at the local dollar store and thought they might make a nice way to cool off in the summer since I always seemed to reach the garden hose before she did which made her think she ought to be better prepared with two water guns ready to be filled at a moment’s notice. Apparently water wars where supposed to start off fair. Funny how no one told me. The long slow kiss didn’t feel like the woman who had called me earlier in the day but I decided not to complain.

Dinner was one of my favorites served in candle light. I’m not sure if it was actually the meal I enjoyed as much as the candle light and grape juice. My wife thinks that wine tends to dull the senses and she said there was more to come.We danced to a cd of out favorite romantic music and spent night snuggled on the couch.

My wife decided to change first and asked me to bring our after dinner coffee to the bed room since the other thing she needed to show me was in the bed room. She asked me to put them in stay warm containers. When she did come out of the bathroom and showed me her other purchase I understood the request for the stay warm cups.
