We sat outside that night on a grassy hill park a few miles from base. Fireworks lighting up the sky like colorful stars joining the heavens. It was well past midnight but neither of us were tired so we sat gazing up at the stars. It was almost symbolic for us at this point, the stars were a part of us now.

Even though neither of us where from the country the spirit from the 4th day of July was in our hearts as we smiled upwards gazing in awe at the sight before us, our hands linked together as they were so often as soon as we weren't being watched.

"That was well worth waiting for" I proclaim. All you can do is nod before starting it over again. Eventually we left the park, a little more flushed than when we came, and you drive us back to the base. Slowly you walk me to my room kiss my cheek and tell me goodnight. I honestly don't want it to end but I know for tomorrow to start it must.

Our first kiss had finally happened and it was all I had ever hoped for and more!My lips still buzzed as I get ready to go to sleep but I knew that I wouldn't happen for a long time, because your kiss...
