Chapter 8

I woke up in the middle of the night and at first, I didn’t realize where I was. Then I saw the white glow of the snow and faint lights in the distance, and then I remembered that I was in the winter glass house. I wanted to get up to look but I was afraid of being seen naked, and then I realized that no one would be standing in the blizzard outside just in case a naked woman could be seen through the window.

I got out of bed then walked over to the glass wall and looked out. It was beautiful. Enough snow wasn't on the ground to cover the frozen lake completely and everything was just breathtaking. I could see the glowing lights under the snow in the front yard…or was it the back? I wasn't sure of the location of this bedroom in relation to the driveway. Not only was this house made of glass, but it was well-lit. I was in awe of the beauty of it, but the lights would just make it easier for anyone to look in at us. Sherrie did not seem concerned because her only interest was how she felt and not what others thought about what she was doing. Of the two of us, she should be more concerned because so many more people knew her. Except for my aunt, my cousins, and my coworkers at the coffee shop, no one else knew me well. The women I slept with probably did not remember me because there was nothing serious between us. So who was I really hiding from? If Sherrie could do this, then why was it so difficult for me to just feel and enjoy this freedom of spirit, mind, and body?

She was trying to get me to see that this was a good thing and the season was perfect for it, but I had so many fears that it was difficult to get the message she was sending me. As I stood looking out at the snow falling and listening to the beautiful silence of the warm indoors, a smile came to my lips. I opened my arms wide and leaned against the glass and I felt so free as if I was floating above the earth and away from the troubles on land. It was powerful and liberating…and very sexy. With my arms open wide, I moved away from the glass, closed my eyes and just slowly spun around in circles. I got a window into the amazing feeling Sherrie experienced during her winter holidays in this house. She wanted to share that with me and I was too surprised to appreciate what she was trying to do as a friend, but now I was clear. This was where I wanted to be, and she was the one with whom I wanted to spend my favorite time of the year. I needed to find her.

I walked to the side of the bed and saw that the tray was missing.
