A week after meeting, Raymond, the hot Latin bodybuilder, This Man was happy when he called me on Thursday, asking if we could get together on Friday, once he'd finished at work and the gym. It would be later in the evening, but if he was willing to make time for me and to tell the truth, I was looking forward to seeing him, then it didn't matter that it would be close to 10 o'clock before I would get to see him. I was at my friend, Jason's house, hanging out but the whole time, This Man was looking forward to seeing Raymond.
Finally, after dropping Jason and his boyfriend back at home, I flew around the corner to Raymond's apartment. He was making chicken tacos, but that didn't matter because I was all over him!
I don't even need to mention what followed.
In bed together hours later, This Man and Raymond were holding each other. Now, if you've been reading my blog then you know this is where things get kind of awkward for me. This night was no different. It was kinda warm in Raymond's apartment, combined with the fact that he snored so loud and that he didn't want me spooning him, This Man realized early in the a.m. that it was time for me to go. Even now, I'm not sure if he was upset that I left but I did wait--more like, hope that he would call me again.
You see, I enjoy being with Raymond, but I don't want to get too excited. Eventually, the time will come when he and I will be comfortable around each other that it won't matter that he snores (hell, I've been told that I do also), or that it's a bit warm at his place or that This Man doesn't get to press my sweaty body up against his. Eventually the time will come, when Raymond and I will fall asleep in each other's arms.
I'm looking forward to that night already.

Mahalo.
