He tugs lightly on a stray strand of her straw-like hair, and she flies up and around, wide-eyed and breathing quickly.

Her eyes light up with a tiny spark and her lips curl into a faint smile while her gaze falls upon the young man's. He towers over her so much; he peers down nearly a foot just to meet her stare. Her mouth widens into a large grin as she creeps closer to the man and stretches up onto the tops of her toes.

She still comes up several inches short of being eye-to-eye with the man, much to her dismay. The man chuckles gruffly after noticing the unhappy pout of the girl. He lowers his head down and tilts it to his right –carefully, so his favorite hat would not tumble off- as the two young adults' lips meet silently.
