Modern Day Romeo And Juliet

Chapter 4

I spent everyday laying in Brook's arms,and as we had just started the holidays this meant that alot of time was spent at each other's flats.

At my house my mother would move the telivision into my room and we would like on my bed in each other's arms, our legs and hands tangled together in a thick web of love. In his arms I felt beautiful,perfect and safe. With my head on his chest,my cheeks brushing against the soft,worn fabric of his shirt and his heart pounding in my ear,that is how I spent most of my mornings,afternoons and nights. Occaisionly I would look up into his chocolatey,brown eyes and give him a smile,and of course I would recieve one off him. A beautiful,heart-melting smile,one that contained a secret message of love that only I could read. Every now and again we would exchange perfect kisses,light,almost barely there,just our lips brushing gently together. For us it wasn't about how far we got and kissing as much as we could it was about fun,and being together,that was why it was perfect.

We made a pact to see each other everyday, even if it was for just a snatched 10 minutes, I treasured these meetings and gaurded my right to have them with my life. Even when my mum said that I should stay in,give the boy some space she would constantly mutter as I chattered on about him but I didn't care I was in love.

Yes life was perfect,but if I had known about how little time we would have together I would have treasured it that much more.
