But before I could take the step down he stopped me, grabbing a belt loop on the back of my Anne Kleins, and pulling me back toward him with rapid--almost shocking--force. “ Woooo! ” I exclaimed, startled at the jolt. My cry was so shrill, the coyotes answered back. I felt awkward. Marlboro Man moved in for the kill, pulling my back tightly against his chest and wrapping his arms slowly around my waist. As I rested my arms on top of his hands and leaned my head back toward his shoulder, he buried his face in my neck. Suddenly, September seemed entirely too far away. I had to have this man to myself 24/7, as soon as humanly possible. “I can’t wait to marry you,” he whispered, each word sending a thousand shivers to my toes. I knew exactly what he meant. He wasn’t talking about the wedding cake. I was speechless, as usual. He had that effect on me. Because whatever he said, when it came to his feelings about me or his reflections on our relationship, made whatever I’d respond with sound ridiculously…lame…bumbling…awkward. If ever I said anything to him in return, it was something along the lines of “Yeah…me, too” or “I feel the same way” or the equally dumb “Aww, that’s nice.” So I’d learned to just soak up the moment and not try to match him…but to show him I felt the same way. This time was no different; I reached my arm backward, caressing the nape of his neck as he nuzzled his face into mine, then turned around suddenly and threw my arms around him with every ounce of passion in my body. Minutes later, we were back at the sliding glass door that led inside the house--me, leaning against the glass, Marlboro Man anchoring me there with his strong, convincing lips. I was a goner. My right leg hooked slowly around his calf. And then, the sound--the loud ringing of the rotary phone inside. Marlboro Man ignored it through three rings, but it was late, and curiosity took over. “I’d better get that,” he said, each word dripping with heat. He ran inside to answer the phone, leaving me alone in a sultry, smoky cloud. Saved by the bell , I thought. Damn. I was dizzy, unable to steady myself. Was it the wine? Wait…I hadn’t had any wine that night. I was drunk on his muscles. Wasted on his masculinity.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Ree Drummond" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/ree-drummond/with-marlboro-man-s-strong-hands-massaging-my-tired-shoulders-i/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6b2/ree-drummond-818_caressing_with-marlboro-man-s-strong-hands-massagi_949025.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6b2/ree-drummond-818_caressing_with-marlboro-man-s-strong-hands-massagi_949025.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6b2/ree-drummond-818_caressing_with-marlboro-man-s-strong-hands-massagi_949025.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“With Marlboro Man’s strong hands massaging my tired shoulders, I walked in front of him down the narrow…” — Ree Drummond", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“You’re mine,” Marlboro Man said, his strong hand caressing my knee in such a way that I considered asking the cab to return to the hotel.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Ree Drummond" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/ree-drummond/you-re-mine-marlboro-man-said-his-strong-hand-caressing-my-knee-in/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f7b/ree-drummond-818_caressing_you-re-mine-marlboro-man-said-his-strong_1479554.png", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f7b/ree-drummond-818_caressing_you-re-mine-marlboro-man-said-his-strong_1479554.png", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f7b/ree-drummond-818_caressing_you-re-mine-marlboro-man-said-his-strong_1479554.png", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“You’re mine,” Marlboro Man said, his strong hand caressing my knee in such a way that I considered asking…” — Ree Drummond", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“Marlboro Man and Tim were standing in the hall, not seven steps from the bathroom door. “ There she is,” Tim remarked as I walked up to them and stood.

A valid question, considering I’d been in the bathroom for over twenty minutes. “Oh yeah…I’m fine,” I answered, looking away. I wanted Tim to disappear. Instead, the three of us made small talk before Marlboro Man asked, “Do you want something to drink?” He started toward the stairs. Gatorade. I wanted Gatorade. Ice-cold, electrolyte-replacing Gatorade.
