do you really want to know? you challenge him. he insists that he does. you think your life is over but strangely you don't care. among the rippling ocean waves and cloudless sky, it feels like you and him are the only two people in the world. anything is possible, any secret safe. leaning in, you close the gap between your space and his. you close your eyes.
you kiss him.
his lips are soft and they make you think of clementines- or maybe peaches.
but he is sweeter than any fruit
and he is kissing you back.
