"Wait what are we doing here at this time of the night?" I ask Robert confused as he takes off his helmet.

Right now, we're in the middle of a road. He places the helmet on his bike and takes my hand and walks to the center of the road.

And then he lies down.

I stare at him shocked and confused.

"Aren't you going to join me?" He looks up at me. I just look at him and think how much I will miss that accent in two days.

Two days seems like a million years but every minute with Robert only seems shorter.  I don't ever want to leave his side.  For the past week, I've spent more time with him than my parents and brothers.

"But? Vehicles could come and drive us over? "

"Oh chill Lisa! Common,will you?"

"Are you copying this from ' the notebook '?" I ask him crossing my hands over my chest.

He chuckles a little and pulls me down. I lie down beside him and look up. The most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life. What I saw in front of me gave me purpose for my eyes.

I blink at the sky. The moon is ever bright and the beautiful stars around it only add more beauty. When I look at the Sky, I feel nothing but content. I forget every woe in the world. I forgot the world infact, it's like it's just me and the sky, nothing else. But I like the mystery that's present.

We share a comfortable silence and he holds my hands and I could feel him squeeze my hands a little tighter.

I don't say anything. The moment felt perfect. I guess such moments are best when there's no words. Because sometimes words hurt when misinterpreted.

That night, all that mattered was him and me and the sky. I didn't care what might happen to us in two days. None of us spoke a word about it. But deep down, I wondered if it's possible to make this work. we have never shared I love you's. But what we shared this summer was pure bliss and real. I guess reality hurts sometimes.

Maybe I won't get my fairy tale ending, but I will always remember Robert. He has made the best chapter in my life and it will always be cherished by me.

It's like that song,"I gotta go my own way!"

Life keeps coming in the way

It does. It does a lot. But life goes on. I just don't understand life.

But my hopes of us having an happily ever after never die. My heart beats faster and my breathing gets heavier every time he's near me. It may seem like I'm affected by his touch in a bad way, but his presence is what I want for the rest of my life.

Is it selfish of me to think like that?

But is this one of those summer flings and I'm just over imagining things?
