Her hair became a dark waterfall down his shoulders from where she laid in his arms.
Gently, Gilbert pressed her closer, desiring to feel her presence, to breathe her in.
It may have been young love, but there was a steady confidence with their love and how life will allow them this bliss for Lien loved Gilbert with all of her being, and he loved her just as much.
Gilbert held her close and listened to the steady beat of her defiant heart, and he smiled.
He loved her too much to not savor these moments together; she, likewise, felt just as strong feelings in return.
Lien breathed in his ever present smell and the way that his arms fit around her as well as the way that his red eyes gleamed; she loved him.
They would fight through every obstacle to be able to stay together as two people in love which meant more than their age.
Love was eternal in its way whenever it was genuinely and truly felt such as between two soulmates, a family, or a group of friends.
They could make it through every obstacle together.
