Gentle hands on her hips, he has her back against the surface, waves and waves of white sheets surrounding them. He takes her underneath this vast ocean with a soft, sweet, starry kiss, and they forget the cold embrace of the night, streams of stars slowly flowing past them.

He breaks away. His hands move to find their match, and he weaves his fingers with smaller ones, empty spaces between filled like star-streaked skies. He presses his forehead on hers, and as their breaths mingle, his inky eyes pour onto those eyes with flecks of light. He breathes out her name like a song, like a prayer.

He lightly kisses her again, all his adoration and devotion flowing into her castles and cathedrals sleeping on the ocean floor, and he takes her another thousand light years underneath the waves, his hands never leaving hers.
