'He had a cigarette with his number on it

He gave it over to me, "do you want it?"

I knew it was wrong but I palmed it

I saved it, I waited, I called it

The liquor on your lips, the liquor on your lips

The liquor on your lips makes you dangerous

I knew it was wrong, I'm beyond it

I tried to be strong but I lost it.

He tells me to "shut up, I got this.'

David slowly drew himself up the steps.

He would tell Lana he was taking her out to dinner and Voila!

He'd propose at dinner.

Well at least that was how extravagant he envisioned it be.

He wanted to avoid any cheesy proposals directions.

Like hiding the ring in various places or writing the words: 'Marry me'.

David was not a cheese-man.

He was a stickler.

He endeavoured perfection and flawlessness.

Because after all Lana embodied those two things.

He looked around the living area and the kitchen.

No sign of her.

Approaching their bedroom.

He found her glued to her laptop.

She snuggled under the covers of their bed and scrolled through a social media website.

She hadn't even noticed his presence.

This factor wounded David, but he enjoyed the candidness she epitomized.

Even in her drab and dry attire she was the most beautiful woman.

He often preferred her looking disheveled and unkempt.

That's when she was the most beauteous.

Sure he loved her gorgeous makeuped face and stylish wardrobe, but this was indeed the innocent and genuine woman he fell in love with.

She turned her head expecting a burglar or criminal, but she saw her man's handsome face.

She ran and jumped into his inviting arms.

He steadied himself upright and held onto her legs.

He let his hands travel up and down her smooth, svelte legs.

Landing on her bum, he gave it a firm squeeze.

Lana squeaked and leaned her forehead onto his; laughing.

Her laugh was a joyful noise.

"Come on my love, Charles awaits us." He hummed into her ear.
