Loving Stars

thirteenth chapter: love...

Do you remember our first kiss, Olivia?

Of course you do. It would be foolish to say either of us could ever forget that night.

Mere seconds of utter bliss when your lips touched mine. It was the sweetest thing I have ever felt. On my tongue or in my heart...

I saw it in your eyes. How you look at me... it took my breath away. Your eyes were on my lips, your breath was shallow and fast. Your lashes were shaking, perhaps resisting closing off yourself to me just yet.

Always. It will always be my memory of you. Memory of us.

Of us, with blanket on the soft grass under us. Basket between us with cupcakes... which frosting you were licking from my lips. The smell of sugar and dew. The smell of your clothes and perfume. The feeling of your chest under my hands. Your arms wrapped around me, pulling me into you as if we could ever be closer.

Of us, our mixed breaths, our hot cheeks. Our eyes were closed when we kissed again, again and again. The fire in my heart, my mind. And you whispeared sweet, hot, tempting things.

Of us, under the stars, under the night, under the moon.

You brought stars to this earth. To me...

I will never forget.
