Everything Has Changed

Fearless

...

Then she tried to speak.

"He- hey how was the prem-iere?" she asked hesitantly

"It was nice, quite boring but nice. Ho- how did it go with James? Was he nau-ghty?" Joe said in the same tone with her

"It was great. He's such a lovely boy" she was looking on the ground

"Yes... He truly is. He passed many rainstorms in his life and he's just... always been so brave." he said with admiration for his nephew

"I know. I see how he behaves at school. He made quickly, friends but also enemies...and he's just so..." "innocent" they said together and then they giggled

"Would you like a glass of red wine?" she asked him gently

"Yes. I'd love to!" he smiled at her.

She stood up, went to the kitchen. She put out from the self two glasses in her one hand, and in her other hand the bottle of the red wine. Suddenly she felt a warm hand on her shoulder. She turned to face him and she swears he - is - so - gorgeous. He was smiling and he offered to help her. She accepts his help, and they decide to go outside in the balcony. As they sit in the little couch, they pour the red wine in their glasses. They clink their glasses and they take a sip.
At first, there was silence. A silence that could kill you. They are so anxious right now that they don't know what to say. They sit really close to each other that you can feel something like sparks filling the air around them. Joe takes the speech on his hands and he starts talking

"It's wonderful out here" he said while looking around

"It surely is. When I have a lot in my head I come here to relax" she said

"I don't blame you. It's really beautiful" he wanted to say like you but he didn't say it

"Yes...it is... Joe can I ask you a question" she said

"Tell me" he said with a smile

"Do you still not believe in love" she asked as she remembered James's words

"Taylor...I-... I don't know, it is kinda complicated" he said and took a sip again

"I know Joe... I know. By the way you have very soft lips" she giggled

"How do you know that?" he was confused

"A few minutes ago you kissed my forehead and I woke up" she smiled

"Oh... Um Taylor sorry i-" she cut him off

"Don't ask sorry. It was sweet and by the way James told me everything" she smiled again

"What do you mean? What did this little naughty boy say?" he made her giggle

"Well he showed me a poem he wrote about us-" this time Joe cut her off

"Oh no... James you little... Ugh" he sighed and supported his head with his hand

"Joe no. It's okay you might have done the best thing till now" she said

"which is...?"

"I like you too Joe" she said sincerely looked into his eyes and got closer

"You wha- Really? He told you that I like you right? " he said as he couldn't believe it

"Yes, he did. And I have to say that you got my attention from the very first day." she says

"Taylor...you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life. Both appearance and heart." he said getting closer
