The rest of the day passed slowly but peacefully.
We were talking about anything and everything and singing to songs on the radio, proving that May could make even the simplest of things beautiful.I drove along the motorway with my hand on her thigh, gently stroking it with my thumb, her hand over mine as the sun set which sent beautiful shades of orange and red running across the sky and road. The beautiful colours reflected in my girlfriends eyes, making her gorgeous pools of green look even more breathtaking.
May smiled to herself as she listened to the music letting the sun bathe her perfect features in warm light.
"You're beautiful," I told her and she smiled.
"Cutie."
"I love you princess."
"I love you too."
"Ashley? Where are we going?"
I lifted her hand to my lips and kissed it gently with a smile, "it's a surprise."
