Friday night

She was lying in bed next to him as he snored obnoxiously. She had the covers pulled to her shoulders and her leg hung over the edge of the bed. She slowly lifted the covers and her feet slipped onto the floor. She took a deep breath as she walked through the familiar darkness. She slowly closed the bedroom door moving down the hallway to the kitchen. She could see the light from the streetlight from behind the house peeking through the curtains of the kitchen door that led to the backyard.

She moved through the kitchen as her naked body became illuminated by the streaks of light. She tilted her head licking her lips as she reached out and wrapped her fingers around the doorknob slowly opening the door and stepped outside.

The chill of the night air flowed around her body as she ran her hands up and down her arms trying to get warm. She sighed as she raised her chin, looking up at the cloud covered night, watching as her breath became a white fog as it left her mouth. She looked down as raised her foot off the ground pointing her toes towards the grass. She twisted her leg as she narrowed her eyes and chuckled admiring her form. She twisted her body noticing her flaws, what she felt were flaws. She reached up and playfully squeezed her breast, "a little cold…" She chuckled as she ran her hands across her breast, feeling her firm nipples. Then she ran her hands down her belly to her thighs, "a little pudgy… Not bad…" She took a deep breath as she turned to look at her reflection in the glass. She wiggled her rump and smiled, "two children... A little work…"

"Who am I kidding…?" She shrugged her shoulders, releasing a disappointing sigh blowing out her breath, and watches it turn white then disappearing into the dark.

"She is so beautiful…" she whispered as she closed her eyes remembering her warm dark eyes and warm skin and soft lips.

She turned and went back inside, the chill slowly wearing off as she moved through the kitchen towards the living room. She took a deep breath sitting naked on the couch as the light from the outside streamed across the floor slowly climbing up the couch. She closed her eyes, shaking her head as she lay down, putting her hands between her legs to keep warm. She made herself comfortable as she brought her hand up wiping a tear that had formed and fell down her cheek. She took a deep breath closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.
