AUTHOR'S NOTES: I keep forgetting to post this here. It is my 100 themes challenge. I tend to do these when I get a bit of writers block and find it works well to work out the kinks in my brain.
These will be in no specific order due to the fact that I am rolling a 100 sided dice to figure out which I want to do. Makes it more challenging and fun that way, to me at least. :D
I did post two at once with this one since the first one is so short.
73. I Can't
Shawn stood on the steps of Juliet's house holding a bouquet of daisies and looking at a closed door. He tried visualizing Juliet in front of him as he practiced the speech he had planned to give to her. All these romantic movie quotes fluttered around in his mind, making it hard to concentrate on what he really wanted to say.
"Love means never having to say you are sorry."
"You had me at hello."
"Here's looking at you kid."
Shaking away the random thoughts that were an all too common occurrence in his head, he decided to go for it and rang the doorbell. When Juliet answered and her eyes lit up at the sight of the flowers, Shawn's plan went straight out the window. He moved forward and took her breath away with a deep, passionate kiss.
After a minute they both broke away breathless. "Wow. What was that for Shawn?" Juliet leaned in and put her forehead against her boyfriend's.
"I… I came here to say a lot of things Jules… you know me and talking. Well, when I got here, and when I saw you, I realized that I can't say in enough words how much I love you. So I decided to show you instead." He smiled and their lips barely touched. "But even saying nothing was a mouth full."
Juliet snorted in laugher as they stood embracing each other on her porch.
