Ah, I remember it like it was yesterday.
Slight summer breeze through the open side window, billowing, the sheer curtain acting as a négligée outlining the wind's every move and contour.
She stood before me skin glistening in the light of August's sun streaking through the slats of her family's boat house on the southwest bank of Lake Willoughby.
The lake was so cold but the dank air in the small space had us both hot, bothered.
Dust particles sparkled like snow flakes in the sun, and a jewel of her sweat caught the same magic--- and my eye--- as it slowly succumbed to gravity.
I caught its fall from just behind her left ear, tracing it with my gaze five feet away.
It was surrounded by thousands of other jewels, all glimmering, but I couldn't look away as it slalomed down her perfect, tanned skin.
Her neck.
Clavicle.
Wide, then righting itself just left of center down the top of her sternum.
At the top of the valley, it paused with the heaving of her breath-filled lungs, but it seemed it was making sure it still held my attention.
I realized I hadn't breathed since she first turned her wet-with-sweat nubile body toward me in that shadow and sun-drenched wooden shack.
I allowed myself a breath and the droplet--- perfect, clear, salt liquid diamond--- rushed headlong into the contours of her heaving breasts, caressing that skin as if in dare.
I would have ransomed my soul to trade places with that shining drop of sweat, now nestled somewhere between heaven on earth and paradise.
