ch.20
I WAITED PATIENTLY BACKSTAGE FOR DODIE TO FINISH HER SET.
thank you summer in the city!
she waved good-bye to the crowd as they cheered some more.
she came straight to me waiting in the wings.
her hug was warm, safe and welcoming.
it didn't matter that she had a ukulele that was separating us more than i liked,
it only mattered that she was in my arms.
can we go outside?
she let her arms drop from my sides,
as the tech team took her ukulele and microphone off her.
yeah sure,
it's a bit hot back here.
dodie linked arms with me as we found our way outside.
the sun was almost gone and the lights were turning on.
we stood at a brick wall decorated in beautiful art work.
a solitary bench perfectly made for two pressed against the art covered wall.
the two of us sat down on the bench facing each other.
you played really well today.
i told her looking deep into her beautiful hazel eyes.
thanks,
she replied looking back into my eyes.
i think it's because i like you.
her words echoed among my head piecing together lyrics to her song.
but that's not enough.
we inched closer hands meeting in the middle our fingers intertwined.
so if you will.
our foreheads leaning against each other now.
please fall in love with me.
and then,
the highlight since meeting this amazing,
beautiful,
talented girl.
we kissed.
the kiss you would read about in a book or watch in a movie.
it was perfect,
her lips on mine for a brief five seconds.
