Kinda... Romantic.

It was the end of a crazy weekend. Friends, music, sun... Everything seemed so perfect, it was almost a pity to end.
She was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, even though she wasn't sleeping. She was so beautiful that way, so in peace with everything around her. Her hair, all messed up from an evening on the beach, were reflecting the orange light of the setting sun. God... It was like having everything I ever wanted at the tips of my fingers. Her lips were whispering the lyrics of the song that was playing on the radio. I could easily gaze at this picture my entire life.
Then, she opened her eyes. I've made no sound until then, but I could swear she already knew I was there. She looked at me and smiled. Her smile could melt all the ice in the universe... I felt so lucky... So lucky I got the chance to have this angel in my life. Sometimes I would feel it was too much...
I realized what I was doing up until she opened her eyes and felt so silly I blushed. She smiled once more and closed her eyes again. I placed myself next to her. I could feel her breath, her heart beating... The warmth of her skin. She moved towards me and put her head on my shoulder. Finally, she broke the silence: "I knew you were gazing. I felt your presence long before you even knew I was awake. It's really sweet... and kind of romantic, you know..."
I could hide in a cave for the rest of time. I was so embarrassed… Why did I have to stand there an stare at her like that?.. The craziest thing was that she didn’t think it was weird. She actually thought it was cute.
She took my hand into hers and kissed it, while making a "puurrring" sound. She always knew how to manipulate me.
From that moment on, I was enslaved by her golden eyes. She kissed my neck, then my lips... I was unable to move. I wanted to hold her like this all night. I pressed myself even closer to her, making clear that I didn't want to leave. Ever.
The next morning I woke up and found her gazing at me. She was right. It was really sweet. And... Kinda Romantic.

The moonlight entered the open window. She was waiting again, another night lost in the memory of their love, in agony if he would ever come back. A light breeze moved her golden hair and a scent of spring filled the entire room. He was here, but somehow his presence seemed so far away... Her eyes, unable to keep the tears in any longer, let go and the precious droplets of her soul met the cool floor. What wouldn't she give... For just once... To be able to feel his warmth, his heart pulsing in perfect synchronization with hers... But he was gone... She knew it from the very first moment. The night took him away.

Another breeze, a more intense one, swirled in the room. This one had the scent of love, yet she could feel the despair flowing in every breath she took in. He was here. Hidden in the shadows of the low-lighted room, a pale figure show up. It was him. She recognized his blue eyes, those eyes she could voluntarily lost herself into forever. Those eyes that were once looking at her with so much love, that a human would be overwhelmed. He was just standing there, a cold statue, unable to speak or make any move. He was afraid of what he could do...
Finally, he moved forward from the shadows, and took her in his arms. Gently, like a mother holds her baby for the first time, terrified not to break it. She felt so secure in those familiar arms. He run his fingers through her hair and unable to resist his instincts, he smelled them. They smelled like summer, like the warm golden sun that could give life to everything, even to revive the most withered flowers. She clung even closer on him, affraid of letting go. She looked in his eyes, it was like he wanted to touch her soul. He kissed her, so soft and passionate at the same time, wanting to give it all away with just one kiss. He would explain everything, why he was away, why he had to leave and never come back, for her sake... He didn't say a word. She understood. They both moved in perfect pace, he took her in his arms and lay her down to her bed. They stayed like this until the sun rose.

When she woke up, it was almost noon. She was peaceful, somehow her pain was taken away. She wondered for an instant, about the dream she... no. It was reality. He was here. He wanted to be forgotten. Tears ran down her cheeks... "I will never forget you" she murmured. "I will always be here, waiting for you by the window, until you decide it's safe again. Time doesn't matter. I'm yours."
