Earned It

Grand Piano

"You have been playing my heart like a grand piano, so play on"

I look out the terrace at our beautiful ocean view. He walks behind me and wraps his arms around my waist. He breaths in my ear "I love you." He kisses my neck softly and spins me around, I stare deep into his golden brown eyes and giggle. He leans forward and softly touches my lips with his. My hands move to the back of his neck and his move to my lower back. He grasps me tightly against him. Our lips fighting in a battle of Oxytocin. He pulls me slowly toward the freshly made bed. He drops himself onto the bed, I straddle him and lean against his chest. The smell of his cologne fills my lungs. He kisses my fore head and I sit up and put my hands on his straight edged jaw line and kiss his lips. "This is what I've always wanted" I whisper to him. he breaths slowly, smiles and replies with "Well now you have it." He embraces me tightly. "You earned it."

Three Years Later

We walk through the airport, my passport in my left hand and his fingers inter locked in the other. We arrive at the doors and he spins me around to face him. His golden eyes are now filled with salty sadness. "You make it look like its magic, because I see nobody but you and I love you for that." He pulls me into a tight hug. His lips meet mine and my tear drops onto his cheek. "I love you too" I reply. We break embrace and I walk through the doors of the plane. I take a swift look back as I turn. His hands at his sides tear stains down his cheeks and a whimpering smile I smile back but the glare in my eyes say Don't Go.

I return to my hotel in Minneapolis and flip on my tv. I grab my pillow and whisper "I love you too"
