In the Moonlight

#MidnightSun

It was late as I held her hand, I could feel her heart beating through her wrist. I could tell she was nervous, as was I. I didn't know the next time i would see her, we were both moving on with our lives.  I will take advantage of tonight and tell her everything.

I looked at her and smiled, she smiled back and I have never saw a sight more breathtaking. 

"Ameylia, i need to tell you, everything before we part ways tomorrow. I love you so much, from the way you smile, to the way you talk, to the way you laugh. I couldn't ask for someone more perfect than you, you are everything to me. I don't know how i am going to survive without you, but i know i have to. I love the way you bite your bottom lip when you are nervous, i love the way you twirl your hair when your distracted and the way you tap your pen when you are concentrated, and your mouth forms a straight line. I love the way your eyes change colour with the seasons, and the way your hair blows in the wind. I love when you get annoyed that you put your hands on your hips, and puff your cheeks out. But most of all I love the way you saved me from myself, and the path I was on, if you my darling hadn't come along I would be dead by now. You saved me baby and god am I grateful."

I finish my rambling and look up into her eyes, she has tears streaming down her face and both of her hands are covering her mouth, her tears glisten in the moon light. I take my hand and remove hers from her face, I wipe her tears away and rest my hand on her right cheek as she melts into my hand. I hear her sigh and she begins to talk. 

"Zak, I couldn't ask for any one else, you are perfect in every way although you don't realise, I don't have much to say because it will hurt to much tomorrow, i know that you love me, but god you have no idea how much I love you. You say i saved you but baby you saved me right back, I don't know where I would be without you." 

She sums it up quickly as she is crying and her words are muffled. I pull her tightly into my chest and just hold her. She struggles against my hold so i loosen it, she looks up at me and kisses me, i never want this moment to end. She was my first love, no one can take that away from me. I end our kiss and tell her that we have to go or we will be late for our new paths tomorrow. She kisses me one last time. 

I watch her walk away hesitantly, taking my heart with her, forever.
