I'm participating in The Twilight Twenty-Five, a writing challenge where authors are given 25 one-word prompts to create one-shots and drabbles. I'm the new kid in class, so any feedback would be really appreciated.
Thanks to hmonster4 for her fabulous beta services!

Here we go…
The Twilight Twenty-Five
Prompt: Heart
Pen name: HeartOfLife
Pairing: Edward/Bella
Rating: K
He's reaching for a box of Kraft macaroni & cheese when the edge of a wayward shopping cart bumps into his.
"Oh, excuse –"
His voice dies in his throat as he turns. The box of noodles and powdered cheese slips from his fingers, crashing against its brethren on the shelf.
She stares back at him, hands gripping her cart. Her eyes widen and her mouth moves silently.
His heart, a muscle practically atrophied by disuse, pounds fiercely against his ribs.
The world shifts. Emerald green meets deep brown, and they finally understand what they have both been waiting for.
