Summer Surprises

#10-The Gift

Robert's POV:
I noticed Lisa's face become pale. She didn't eat dinner well either.

But her question about us after the summer surprised me.

Something I've been thinking about every night this summer.

Unknowingly I've grown close to Lisa. But how to describe this feeling?

Is it love? Is it just lust? Is it just genuine feelings for someone?

But when I'm with her, I forget the world as cheesy as it sounds.

The way her hair moves with the wind and she scrunches her nose and pushes some strands behind her ears. The way she bites her lip when she gets embarrassed. The way her eyes sparkle in surprise. The way she jumps in excitement at something. The way she hugs me and plants warm kisses on my cheeks. The way she listens to me talk. The way she plays with my hair when she gets bored of listening to me.

I can watch her all day and not get bored at all. I can listen to her endlessly without dozing off. Her voice has become my favorite music.

What's happened to me? No girl has ever had this effect on me before.

Summer is nearly over. What's going to happen in a week? Should I let time take care of this? Or should I step up?

But what can I do? What should I do?

She's become someone, something I can't live without.

I hate this feeling. A feeling you can't  clearly make out.

Arrrrrrrrgggggggg....!

Why can't I get her eyes right? There's not been any thing in the world that I couldn't get on paper till now.

Lisa's POV:
"Hey babe!" I kiss his cheeks  and sit beside him on the park bench.

"I've got something for you, but close your eyes first."

"Okay!" I close my eyes and wait impatiently.

"Are you there?" I call out because even after a few moments, I sense no movement.

"Stay patient love!" He tells me.

Then, I feel his hands around me. And something small touches my neck.

I open my eyes to see a heart shaped locket. I smile and open it to see the picture of us kissing on the Eiffel Tower.

OMG, he actually got someone to take that picture. On top of the world kiss! It was so thoughtful of him.

I squeal in happiness and jump into his arms and give a big bear hug.

I stay like that for a while because I don't know how long I will get to do this. I wipe a few tears and break the hug.

He has this huge grin on his face and I stare into his blue eyes for a while.

"Aren't you going to say anything? Like maybe thank you." He teasesingly says.

I playfully hit his arm and he holds my hands. We walk in silence around the park, watching the kids play, happy couples and tourists.

The silence was comfortable but a thousand things were on my mind. But I loved walking next to him, my hands in his.

So many unanswered questions, unclear emotions. But it felt right at the moment to be with him.
