Cynthia and Mike both stared at each other, half intently, half admirably. She honestly had no idea what to think of him, she trusted Eva so much. She was the first person to show this much compassion to her, in the life she remembered anyway. But Mike's eyes, they were just so mesmerising. His caramel irises practically blended in with his pupils that glinted and stared at her almost hungrily.
"I know I came off as a bit cold at first." Cynthia jumped, they'd been silent for a few minutes. "But." He continued. "I do really like you." Cynthia took a sip of her wine to hide the fact she was blushing. As soon as she put her wine down Mike put her hands in his. "Do you like me too?" She spluttered a bit at this question and was truly lost for words. "Well. Yeah" she replied bluntly. They both stared at each other in silence for a bit before laughing at how awkward they both were.
After a wonderful meal of salmon én croute and lots of subtle flirting Mike and Cynthia paid for their meals and walked out into the cool summer night. They both walked hand in hand down the prominade, illuminated by street lamps and the stars. They reached the end of the pier and looked out over the ocean. It was beautiful, like na ultramarine quilt, slowly moving up and down and reflective slivers of silver moonlight. Mike turned to Cynthia and looked at her. The moon shone over her and gave her an angelic glow. He put his tanned, muscular hands on each of her cheeks and pulled her up to his lips. His tongue pushed it's way into her mouth and she felt the cool touch of the silver ball on his tongue. Time slowed down. Cynthia stood, eyes wide open, hands by her side, half considering grabbing his defined cheeks back, half considering slapping him; but slowly, her eyes closed and she wrapped her arms around him. All that could be heard was her heartbeat and the slow slosh of the sea against the rocks below.
