Tonight
-Drabble-

He smiled to himself, did up the cufflinks at his wrists and felt an unwavering breath of excitement fill him

Centering the green silk tie he wore, he gave a nod and stepped back, patting his chest pocket only once before he left.

He had a feeling tonight was going to be a good night.

She stood at the floor length mirror, looking herself up and down, chewing her lip as she considered any flaws. Her butt wasn't going to get any smaller and she couldn't honestly say that was a bad thing considering how often his hand rested and squeezed there without complaint.

There was a zing that went up and down her spine; a promise that tonight was going to be good.

Grabbing her purse from the table, she turned at the knock at her door, smiling as her stomach twisted and clenched with excitement.

Their table was separate from others, perched outside on the terrace where the smell of blooming roses was intoxicating and the moonlight spilled across them in a way that was so perfectly intimate. He held her hand, never let it go, fingers playing with hers while his smile refused to waver.

They spoke, laughed, whispered with the promise of more when dinner had passed and home was in sight. Her body swayed side to side to the soft music lilting through the open balcony doors and she felt the need to shout with glee; the feelings in her bubbling so brightly.

He felt no fear, no worry, only a warm settling of enthusiasm that filled his chest. He couldn't stop touching her; the soft flesh of her wrist, the ticklish expanse of her forearm, twining their fingers and tracing her palm. It was only as dinner had passed and they sat in the flickering light of the candle, with a half-empty bottle of Pinot in a bucket of ice just behind their table, that he did what he'd wanted to all night. Reaching into his pocket, he produced the ring and watched as her bright grin softened into a sweet smile.

Yes, tonight was going to be a really good night.
