Third person POV

The wind blew strong, cold air onto the dark city. The couple stood on the small balcony entwined in each other, the smaller of the two had his head upon the taller ones chest and together they gently swayed back and forth. The sharp wind blew so hard that their eyes were watering but neither wanted to go indoors. They could be whoever they wished to be out there with only the sleeping city down below to judge them. It was so, so simple to them, everything made sense...but the rest of the world just wasn't ready to except that. So there they stayed, hiding out in the open, feeling the freedom rush through them as they swayed in the breeze. They were one with nature.

It would have seemed stupid to them a few years back but now they knew that they made each other whole. They stayed there, lost in time together until the rising of the sun. Then they city awoke and the hatred returned to it when before it had turned a blind eye.

They wished to be free like they had been in the depths of the night.
