He hadn't see her and it worried him.
Then he received it; a note.
It was mysterious and he liked it.
It told him to meet her at the park.
Just as the note described, he arrived on time, eager to see her.
She arrived late, dressed in a hoodie and sweats. She still took his breath away.
She seemed nervous, but she stood in front of him and smiled.
"I can't stay for long."
"Why?"
She looked away; guarded by what haunted her.
He wanted to ask, but he didn't.
"Dance with me and pretend the world doesn't exist."
She nodded.
His heart raced and his hands sweat. He thought he might faint.
He pulled her into his arms and they swayed.
No music was required, just the sound of their hearts racing.
She snuggled in closer. He held her tighter, afraid to let go.
After that, there was no going back.
He'd protect her no matter the cost.
