Birthday    Wishes

I wrote this story for someone birthday, but just replace their name with yours...enjoy

D@mn another birthday has come and gone. Now I know I told everybody I was throwing a cyber party and why they didn’t show up I don’t know. And that d@mn Asani…she promised me a story and she didn’t even send it to me, now I know she slow but d@mn. And not only that my family and other friends didn’t give this day the importance it deserved. Not that I was expecting a party with streamers, balloons, confetti and the whole works, but at least something more than what I got. Well the hell with all of them and everything else…today is your day and you’re gonna do something that makes you feel good. A nice long hot bubble bath is just the trick to get the night started off right. No phone, tv, people, computer, no nothing…it’s all about you tonight. So you unplug the phone, cut the lights and tv, and light the candles that surround the tub and prepare to “submerge”. Once the tub is filled with the hot steamy soapy water you smile despite yourself. Try as you might scenes from the “Luxury: Cococure” video keep flashing through your mind. What you would’ve done to be in that bathroom for the filming of that video…..Whew Lawdy!!!! The music is paying softly as you slip into the water and you are instantly relaxed. Just when you think the moment couldn’t get any better you hear a knock at the front door. You ignore it not wanting to disrupt the mood you’ve set, but the knocking continues. “Go away…don’t you know it’s my birthday…I’m trying to relax here!!!!” you yell and the knocking finally stops. You’re able to relax again but after about 10 minutes the knocking begins again. UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!! Don’t these people get it…I’m trying to relax…you think to yourself. You try to ignore the knocking again but this time its more insistent. Despite repeated shouts to the “knocker” to stop and leave they continue. “Oh I see I got to handle this ghetto – style” you mutter to yourself as you get out of the tub, grab your robe, and head towards the door. Ready to blast off on whoever disturbed your flow, you yank open the door. You’re surprised to see that no one is there, yet you see a single rose lying in front of your door. You look around to see who could have left the rose but there is no one around. You collect your rose and head back inside. Seconds after you close your door you again hear a knock. You rush to open the door to catch whoever’s been knocking at door all evening. Expecting to see someone you know you open the door but instead you see Maxwell standing there rummaging through/in a bag of some type.

You stand there shocked [with your mouth gaped open] not believing what you see. He says “I hate to interrupt your evening, but I uhhh I have something for you.” You stand there a second longer then invite him in intrigued by what he just said. He continues… “I know today’s your birthday and all. I’ve been thinking about it all day and about how I would go about sending you some birthday wishes. I thought I was going to be able to join your cyber birthday party, but at the last second something came up and I knew that by the time I finished I would’ve missed the party.” Now you’re really shocked…how did he know it was your birthday, let alone about the cyber party?
“I know this isn’t much, but I just wanted to help you celebrate your birthday.” He reaches in the bag and pulls out a hostess cupcake and some candles…he smiles sheepishly at you humps his shoulders and says.. “Last second….sorry I really wish it could’ve been more.” You smile touched by his efforts even to do something.
“How do you know it’s my birthday?” you blurt out.
“I have my sources.” He says smiling.
“What else is in the bag? you ask seeing that the bag is still lumpy. “Oh that is the best part….” He says as he reaches inside his page and pulls all the things for a “good” birthday party, “just sit back and relax…this shouldn’t take long.” Despite yourself you sit back and smile as he works quickly setting up the room for an impromptu birthday party. As he is placing the “Birthday Girl” crown on your head he smiles and says “I almost forgot the best and important thing for any party..” he goes back into the hall and brings back inside dozens and dozens of balloons of every color. “All birthday parties must have balloons…how else would people know it’s a celebration” he says smiling. Now really cheesing he begins to sing you happy birthday, and try as you might you can’t seem to keep the tears from welling up in your eyes. As you are blowing out your candle Max is whooping it up and throwing confetti in your direction. You are so moved by what Max has just done for you that you rush over to hug him. That’s when you remember truly how little the amount of clothes you have on. Remember all you have on is your bathrobe because you rushed to the door to tell someone off. You hear Maxwell gasp as you rub against him. You realize that he now knows exactly how much you have or don’t have on under your robe. You step back and you look at him. Your eyes lock and you become unsure of what to do next. After what seemed like an eternity you ask him if there is anything you can do to repay him for all that he has done. He smiles slyly and says “I wouldn’t mind another hug….but seriously just seeing you smile was more than enough payment.” You stand there nervously smiling for a few seconds more and then excuse yourself to go and put on some more clothes.

As you are heading to your room the candles burning in the bathroom distract you. You think to yourself that you might as well blow them out now since you won’t be able to finish that bath now. Before you blow out the candles you decide to let out the water in the tub first. For whatever reason you become so fascinated by the water and bubbles that remain in the tub that you sit there and watch as they slowly drain out. You sense something is different and you turn to see Max standing in the doorway. You’re mesmerized by how is face looks in the flickering candlelight. You and he lock eyes again as he slowly comes toward you. You shyly look away as he stops in front of you. Max extends his hand and nervously you place your hand in his. As he slowly pulls you to your feet thoughts race through your head. This wrong…this should not be happening is all up keep hearing. Tenderly he cups your face and turns it toward him.
“I forgot to give you your present…” he says. Slowly he brings your face to his and softly kisses you. Amazingly despite the kiss being so soft and tender it is filled with great passion. After your kiss you look into his eyes and see such tenderness and longing. Surprised by what you see but also intrigued you take his hand and lead him out of the bathroom into your bedroom. Although it was a bold move on your part, you become apprehensive once you are in the room. Sensing your fear Maxwell closes the distance between you and whispers, “Nothing is or will happen that you don’t want to happen. I only came here to make your birthday a better one. And if that means going back in the living room to play tidily – winks we can do that too. Because I don’t want you to do something that you may later regret.” “If I didn’t want this we wouldn’t be in here” you boldly hear yourself say.
“Well alrighty then!!!” he says with the goofiest look on his face. You smile knowing Max was doing all he could to make you smile and feel at ease. However you change the whole complexity of the situation as you untie the belt on your bathrobe and drop it to the floor. For the second time that night, you hear Max gasp in surprise. “Are you sure?” he ask and you shake you head yes, and Max encloses you in his arms and begins to kiss you again. You move backwards until you fall on the bed, continually kissing. Suddenly he stops and you ask if there is a problem. “No, I just want to take in all of your wonder before I continue.” He says. You smile and raise your eyebrows a couple of times as if asking if he likes what he sees. You hear him mutter “Glory be” as he shakes his head, smiles and begins kissing you again. Ever so slowly Maxwell kisses AND licks every inch of you. Next his head and mouth comes to the valley of you, and with every stroke of his tongue he takes you to heights you never knew existed. So completely overcome by this, Maxwell takes you in his arms and holds you while your shuddering subsides. When you’re finally “calm” you and Maxwell submerge and join together as one, experiencing and sharing pleasures together for the rest of the night. You finally drift of to sleep in each other arms. You are sleeping soundly when you feel Maxwell slowly kissing you awake. You look at him and he says… “This is not how I wanted things to end, because if I could I would stay here all night and day being with you, but I really have to leave.” You try not to look upset/disheartened but Max can sense it in your eyes. “First let me say I don’t usually do “things” like this, but I want you to know everything we did last night I will remember forever.”
“So will I” you say as you mask your feelings. After Max showers, dresses and leaves you come back to your room trying to figure out what happened last night happened at all. That’s when you notice a small box with a letter attached to it on your bedside table. “This wasn’t here before…I wonder what it is,” you think to yourself. Knowing it was something Max left you, you rush over to see what it is. You open the box and find a necklace with a charm that has the letters “[put the intial of your name here]” and “M” combined on it. Then you begin to read one of the sweetest letters you’ve ever read. This is what the letter said:

“_____,

You slip into the water and replay in your head all of the events that happened last night and your birthday celebration with Max.
