Chapter 1.2 – The last kiss

Loving her was always effortless for him. He could stare into those eyes for hours without coming up for air, but he knew the moment their lips touched his world never be the same. It was the point of no return, and there was no safety net for his fall. He didn’t care he wanted her and tonight his impossible dream was coming true. He felt all his demons and fears die as her soft moist lips pressed against his. He admired the contrast of her tattos against her soft white skin. His hands explored every inch of her as he slowly undressed her. He was drunk with her beauty, and he could feel the world spinning. Every inch exploded with pleasure as he slowly slide inside her for the first time. He was lost in heaven. He knew this would forever be the greatest night of his life. He held her tightly, and made love to her passionately, slowly tasting every inch of her. Hours slipped away and the two feel asleep in each others arms.

The next morning he woke up, and instantly felt cold the moment he saw the piece of paper laying on her pillow. She was gone. He quickly scanned the room for any clue that she might return. Reluctantly he unfolded the piece of paper lying next to him and he began to read. “I am sorry I can’t do this…” were the first words. Everything after those words might as well have been written in another language because the echos of those first few words drowned everything out. He layed there paralyzed, unable to move, unable to scream or shed a tear. This was beyond the pain of heart break. His soul, his entire life, all his dreams were ripped to shred. After a few hours he was able to convince his body to get up. Part of him wanted to chase her, but he knew he would never find her. For the rest of that day he just sat on his porch watching the sun set. He sat there thinking of how it all began. He had met Jadie several years earlier through his good friend Frank. Frank always had an eye for beautiful asian women, and Frank’s radar picked her up early. Gregory didn’t know how he missed her. She had worked in his building for years. Frank had convinced her to meet him for drink at a local wine bar, and she was bringing her friend Roxanne so he needed a wingman. Gregory was recently separated from his long time girlfriend so he gladly accepted the invite. Frank knew Gregory had a brief crush on Roxanne years earlier so he thought he was doing Gregory a favor. Really Gregory had lost any attraction for Roxanne the minute he heard her speak, but Frank was unaware of this fact. Curious about who Jadie he asked around the building. Every man seemed to know who she was and this only added to his curiousity. Working in a technical field there weren’t many women in his building, and the few attractive women were always points of discussion during happy hours. For some reason Jadie managed to fly below his radar. Walking into the bar he had no idea his world was about to change.
