CAMILAS POV

                       It was dark out, me and Shawn had gone out to the creek to get some fresh air. A white blanket was laid out under us in the ground as we observed the night sky. June had just begun and the temperature was perfectly warm, a slight breeze occasionally brushed against my skin, giving me goosebumps. I looked over at Shawn and noticed how entranced he was while watching the stars. It made me smile and as if he could sense I was staring, he turned to me and caught my pleased expression. He returned the smile, his eyes subtly creasing. This reminded me of when we were younger and carefree, at peace. I pushed Shawn in the arm with my fist and laughed.

"What are you looking at?"

"No, real question's what where you looking at?" He asked still smiling.

"Nothing, you just seemed very focused." I spoke softly, eyeing him. He turned back to look up once again.

"The sky just looks beautiful tonight, doesn't it?" He inquired and looked back to me as fast as he'd turned to look up seconds before. His hazel eyes seemed more viridescent than usual, they swallowed me whole and I was lost in thought. I remembered in that moment how much I really loved him, how I'd always loved him and how much it managed to confuse me.

"Yeah..." I spoke but it came out as a shaky whisper more than anything.

Our eyes stayed locked for longer than I can remember, I could never get bored of just staring at him. I noticed his pupils dilate as he gently licked his lips, they were nice and plump and I could recall how they felt against mine from all the times we'd kissed before. I assumed he noticed me staring at them because soon his hand was on my cheek, tenderly caressing it. I smiled onto his firm palm and let myself lean into his touch. Out here we could be free, we could do anything we wanted and we didn't have to worry about anyone or anything. That thought calmed me very much.

He scooted closer to me and gazed down at my lips then back to my eyes and then lips again. I leaned in close enough to feel his hot breath on my mouth as he moved his hand from my cheek to the back of my neck and closed the distance between us. His lips met mine and my heart began pounding faster and faster, they were soft and plush against my own. He never failed to make the firecrackers go off inside of me, and I feared very deeply that one day I'd loose him because I knew nobody would ever make me feel like he did.

I took my hands around his neck and pressed myself closer to him, devouring his mouth as if that would be the last time I'd get the chance to kiss him. And quite frankly we never know, no one ever knows when that last time will come, not to be pessimistic but anything could go wrong in a matter of minutes. That's why I never took the moments me and Shawn shared together for granted, that's why I made the most out of them.

I felt his tongue slide across my bottom lip and without hesitance I opened my mouth slightly, letting him in. I moved my tongue against his and took in his sweet taste. His free hand came to my waist and made contact with the exposed skin my shirt failed to cover. That simple touch sent shivers running up and down my spine and before I knew it I had climbed unto his lap, straddling him.

My chocolate hair swayed in the summer wind as Shawn and I got lost in one another. His lips pecked the corner of my mouth, my cheek, my jaw, and then my neck. I let out a barely audible moan as I felt heat begin to linger in-between my legs. His kisses had left wet marks where they'd been on my skin and he was now sucking on my neck very faintly. My hand came up to play with the soft light brown hair at the nape of his neck and yet another soft moan escaped from my mouth as I felt him suck on my weak spot.

I loved the intimacy Shawn and I shared, the smallest of touches and caresses felt so intense to me, merely because it was him, but then again I'd never been with any other man besides him.
