The soul flies to the sky

,, I blame the sun,,

As he was approaching the spot, he was growing more and more anxious. His hands were sweaty and shaky, and his heartbeats were fast like he was running a marathon. A million thoughts were running through his head:,,What if she doesn't like me, what if I freeze? What if...."
But then he saw her, smiling at him widely. And every doubt or unpleasant thought he had disappeared.
,,Hey Josh"

,,Hello sunshine, how are you doing today?"

,,Sunshine? So you already have a nickname for me?"she sad with a small chuckle.
,,Out of everything you could've sad, why sunshine?"

,,Well... Think of it this way. Imagine me as a sunflower.."

,,Okay..." she sad bursting in laughter.

,,Hey, it's not that funny, listen... So, as I sad, imagine me as a sunflower. And what do sunflowers do?"

,,They turn to the sun" she sad as she looked to the ground shyly.

,, Exactly. That's why you're my sunshine." Josh was very confused where he got this confidence at.

,, That's.... That's actually very sweet of you to say"

Next, the air was filled with silence. But it wasn't wierd, it was actually quite comfortable.
She scribbled a few words into the leather notebook. He managed to catch a glance of it, and read the title:,, I blame the sun"

,,Gee, what did that sun ever do to you?" Josh asked with the sweet warmth in his voice.

She chuckled.

,,Is that the same poem from yesterday? Can I read it?"he stated like a child begging for a lollipop.

She was unsure of what to answer:,, I'll let you read it, sometime in the future, not now".
,,Tell me about yourself"

,,Well, the only interesting thing is that I'm in a band"he exclaimed proudly.

,,Oh really? What kind of music do you play?

They spent their time talking about each others interests, family, friends, and mostly the basics of getting to know each other.
Their music taste was practically identical, going mostly around Bob Dylan and John Denver.
Both of them enjoyed the others company, even though they met just a day before, they were very comfortable around one another, sharing embarasing childhood stories and laughing.
It was when the question about siblings came up, the laughter stopped. Izzy's mood completely fell and she was debating whether or not to answer his question.

,,I grew up with four brothers" she sad with an almost a sad tone in her voice, but he didn't think much of it.

There was a pause.

,,Are you sure you want to listen Josh?",she asked worriedly.

,,Of course, I could listen to you talk for hours"

,,I grew up in a small town in the Mediterranean sea. Our uncle was a lighthouse keeper. One year he sent me, my twin brother Nuno, and our three older brothers to cover his ,, shift" if I can call it that...
The third night we were there, as we were getting ready to bed, the oldest one, Gary, heard a noise otside and went to check on it.... Next thing you know, four men came inside and shot the to older ones. Nuno and I were in the back room so we started running. As we were approaching the boat, his foot got stuck between two rocks. I tried to help him, but his stubborn ass didn't let me, and told me to go..."

,,Izzy, I'm sorry. I'm an idiot. I shouldn't have pushed it."

,, Don't worrie. It's not your fault."she sad with a small smile and a pat on his shoulder to assure him that she's alright.
Of course, the pat didn't do it for him, so he pulled her into a tight hug. As they pulled out of the hug, he took her face in his hands and placed a soft kiss on the lips.
It felt perfect. Like there was no one in this world but the two of them. It's odd to say judging by the fact they only met each other a short while ago, but for some reason, both of them knew at that exact moment, that they were going to spend their lifes together.

When they leaned in for another kiss, his phone rang. It was Sam, ready to ruin his moment.

,,What could you possibly want, Sam!?"

,, I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but it's 3 in the goddamn morning, and we want to sleep, and Lord knows that's not going to happen with your enthusiastic ass coming in the house. So say your goodbyes, and come home."

,,Go to hell" he sad obviously very annoyed at his younger sibling.

,,I guess I have to go"he sad facing the girl before giving her a kiss on her forehead.

,, Good night, Izzy."

,,Good night, Josh."

And he walked away, now very eager to strangle his brother for calling him abruptly.
