My Moon

Chapter 2

The sweet whispers of "I love you's" and "your so beautiful" filled my moonlit room. I always kept my blinds open, always letting the moonlight in. Oliver kissed my forehead, then my nose, and then his soft lips where on mine, I was no loner disgusted by the
feeling, it had been two years since then anyway.

"Ollie?" I whispered against his lips.

"Aleise?" I couldn't see his smile, but I felt his lips turn up.

"I love you." I smiled to myself. Even though that I love you was probably the 57,864th I love you, it still felt special like all the rest.

He smiled bigger. "I love you more, Aleise."

We fell asleep in each others arms. It felt so perfect, so fairy-tale-like. I remeber thinking I would rather listen to his heart beat rather than my favorite song.

The next day we went to the fair. Jumping from ride to ride and stealing secret little kisses on the Ferris wheel. When I think about all the perfect times, I can't tell if I never wanted it to happen, or if I am glad that I at least experienced a love like ours.
