Author's note,
Hi, so I decided to change to past tense because it's just a lot easier. Idk what I was thinking with present tense before haha.
Chris POV
I heard the doorbell ring just as I set down the pizza and wine glasses. I quickly wiped my hands on the sides of my shirt before I ran over to the door. When I opened it all I saw were her eyes, swirling with different colors of blue. "Wow, you are--you're stunning," I say without thinking.
"Chris, I'm literally just wearing a sweater and jeans," Melissa laughs.
"I know, but still," I smiled trying to be casual. Her hair was in a low ponytail, with just a small lock of hair loose and wavy, perfectly framing her face. Her lips were a soft shade of pick and curled just enough to see that she was happy, and her sweater slightly draped off of her shoulder just enough to show the bra strap. She was stunning, there was no other way to put it.
I led her inside, to show her what I've set up for the date. Once she sees the wine and pizza and Singing in the Rain ready to be watched on the TV she squeals. "Oh my goodness, Chris, this is amazing! It's perfect." She smiles up at me.
"Well, I wanted it to be, for you." I smile back and she blushes.
"You know me well, Christopher," she grins
Then Drift comes trotting in from the other room and almost knocks her over. "Hey, Drift!" She says laughing and crouching down so Drift can lick her face.
"Wow, he really seems to like you!" I say, "he and Farley should have a playdate sometime."
Melissa chuckles as she stands back up, "Yeah, I think they would like each other."
We sit down on the couch and start the movie. As we eat, drink, and laugh with the movie on, I feel her head lay down softly on my chest. I put my arm around her, and it feels like she fits perfectly by my side. Her head floats up and down with every breath I take, and her warmth fills up my entire body. I feel her head turn to look up me. The blue swirling in her eyes, framed by her softly curled up eyelashes, mesmerize me.
"This is perfect, laying here with you." She whispers.
"Oh yeah?" I reply, matching her volume.
"Yeah."
Melissa's POV
I stared deeply into Chris's eyes and see my own reflection. How did someone like me get a guy like this? He is kind and caring, and he likes me. His face leans into mine and I close my eyes and I let his lips touch mine. I kiss him back, a little harder than before. A couple of seconds past and we separated just enough for our noses and foreheads to still be touching. "Hi," Chris whispers.
"Hi," I whisper back.
He leans back into me for a more passionate kiss. I kiss him back with more force as he flips me onto my back, and I laugh from the impact. We start up again, his hands on my waist and mine in his gorgeous hair. We were both in perfect sync. The world disappeared around us and the only thing I could feel was his touch and his breath. His hands work down to my legs and he picks me up and makes his way to the bedroom. I giggle. He places me on the bed and starts to kiss my neck. At that moment I felt pure joy. The man I had been pining over was finally mine and happiness made my heart soar. I unbuttoned his shirt without our lips parting, and he took off my sweater. The night was absolutely perfect.
