Sensual

 

 

 

Years ago, one of the former clan leaders gave orders for a secluded area at the far end of the estate to be built according to his wishes, only family members should be allowed there.

 

Fingertips slid over rough wood, tracing the lines of intricate ornaments craved into the wall that separated this `secret garden' from the rest of the world. A gentle breeze sent a shiver through the body while goose bumps appeared on appendages. Not from the cold for it was a mild summer night, but from the sensory overload.

 

The full moon shone brightly from the midnight sky, illuminating the scenery, but at the same time draining the world of all colour. The perception of colours was reduced to black shadows and silvery white structures. With the eyesight limited, the other senses were stimulated beyond their normal limit.

 

Hands ran for a last time over the wall. Gravel crunched under bare feed, slightly stinging the soles without actually breaking the skin. It felt more like a rough massage with every measured step. The narrow path led alongside stone garden arrangements framed by neatly trimmed bushes and flowerbeds bathed in moonlight that only added to the soothing harmony of the whole garden.

 

Beside the sound of the footsteps on gravel, an occasional sharp clack joined the nightly concert of the crickets as the bamboo pipe of koi pond's water flow smacked back onto stone. A light aroma of summer flowers lingered in the air which otherwise was refreshing clear.

 

The crunching of gravel was turned into the barely audible sound of bare feet touching wood as the pathway finally reached the few steps that led up to veranda surrounding the small building. Two more steps before a hand reached out to shove the shoji screen open.

 

The screen slid easily in its rail, the sound pleasant to the ear. Once opened completely it revealed the private spring situated inside. Like the garden, the room was bathed in silver moonlight for the ceiling was made of glass permitting an unrestricted view of the night sky.

 

Dark shadows obscured the opposite wall where the spring room was connected to the rest of the estate. Light steam hovered over the water and wooden floor.

 

One foot took a tentative step inside, quickly followed leading alongside the spring. Once again, a hand reached out, this time to touch the irregularly shaped boulders framing the water, brushing them, feeling the stone. The other hand was lifted to the silken belt, releasing the knot. Silk slid over bare skin as the front of the short robe opened as it was no longer restricted by the belt. With a slight shrug of the shoulders the silk fell to the ground.

 

Coming to a halt at the edge of the water, a leg stretched out slowly towards the calm water that reflected the moon like a mirror. A delicate toe touched the surface causing light ripples to spread in perfect circles. The spring had a pleasant temperature, not too warm but not chilling either.

 

Gracefully, the foot was lowered into the water until it came in contact with a stepping stone. The liquid barely reached the calf when the weight was shifted to allow the other foot to step onto another stone. Unhurriedly, more and more skin was submerged into the water until it reached the stomach.

 

Arms moved through the glistening liquid, fingers spread wide. Long strands of hair spread like a curtain over the dancing surface of the water. In the bright light of the moon, the hair glowed in a beautiful shade of silver.

 

All movement ceased as the body was kept perfectly still for a moment to savour the feeling of water on skin. Bending the knees slowly, the rest of the body was lowered into the water. Fine ripples of the water indicated a shiver as the liquid reached the sensitive underside of the breasts.

 

When the water reached the collar bones, the head was laid back until only the face remained on the surface. Wide eyes stared dreamily up into the sky, a faint smile played about her lips. Her mind drifted off as she closed her eyes and relaxed. Faintly, she registered water rippling against her head, but thought nothing of it.

 

Therefore she was rather startled when a pair of arms circled around her waist to pull her against a hard chest. She opened her eyes to look at the person in front of her. Lifting herself up, she wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled at him.

 

She felt a large hand spread on her lower back, pressing her flush against him while the other wandered up her spine. It stopped at her neck, tilting her head back for the perfect angle. Her hands were busy playing with his hair when he lowered his head and touched her lips with his.

 

Opening her mouth, she met his tongue half way with her own. Feeling them winding around each other, she slowly coaxed him into her mouth where he eagerly explored the lines of her teeth, the whole inside of her mouth before he returned to feel her tongue.

 

Slowly, she started to feel light-headed, forcing her to reluctantly break from his lips to draw in much needed air. Both breathing heavily, they stood staring deeply into each other eyes. Smirking slightly, he started to take her with him as he stepped backwards until he felt the edge of a boulder against his thighs.

 

Nipping playfully at his lips, she turned around and rested her back against his chest. A delighted shiver ran down her spine upon the feeling of his skin against hers and his arms sneaking around her waist again. She could feel the tip of his nose against the back of her head, as he buried his face in her wet hair to inhale her scent and gaze with fascination at her strands that shone silver-white with a hint of roseate in the bright moonlight.

 

Hidden under the water's surface, she entwined the fingers of one of her hands with his while the other reached up to play with the silky strands of his long, dark hair. The muscles of his shoulders worked under his skin as he tightened his hold on her. She was momentarily raised a bit out of the water only to sink back again as a content sigh escaped her lips.

 

She closed her eyes to savour the feeling to the fullest. His chin came to rest on her left shoulder and she tilted her head slightly to the other side to grant him better access to her neck. He wasted no time and started to kiss his way from her collar bone to her chin. Licking along her cheekbone, he nibbled lightly on her ear. A low moan of bliss was his reward.

 

Ripples continued to disturb the water's surface as they moved. Her hand left his hair to caress his cheek and every other bit of skin she could reach behind her. One of his hands came up from under the water to trace the outline of her breasts that were only half covered with water.

 

Another moan escaped her as she kept her eyes closed to concentrate more on feeling him everywhere. Feeling his skin on hers, his movements against hers, their shared caresses and the splashing of water around them. She turned her head as far as she could to capture his lips once again, to feel his tongue and taste him.

 

They continued to kiss and caress and move, only parting their lips shortly to gain some breaths and look into each others eyes before closing them again and resume their kissing. Ultimately, his mouth swallowed her occasional low sighs and even the loud moan.

 

Contently, she rested her head against his shoulder and nuzzled his neck lovingly when he moaned her name into the night air. Her lips moved against his skin.

 

“I love you.”

 

`Neji'

 

His answer was to tighten his grip around her hips and across her shoulders as they stayed joined in the water to feel each other for a little while longer.
