Part 3: The answer
He kneeled down to her level.
His hot breath tickled the tip of her nose.
He wiped away the tears in her eyes…
The soft warm liquid trailed down his thumb.
He gazed into her eyes one more time…
In them her question was distinct but still the same.
'Why?'
And for the instant she was able to peer into his eyes…
she was able to see all…
all of it.
His pain.
His suffering.
His answer.
He had not wanted her to know.
He had never wanted anyone to know.
but he had to let her know…
And as his eyes slowly closed,
he closed the distance between them.
He kissed her
He kissed her for all the many times he hadn't.
He kissed her for all the many times he thought of her.
He kissed her for all the many times he dreamed of her.
He kissed her again and again and she held him closer…
Because she understood…
He loved her…
and she loved him, too.
He had been afraid of this.
He had been afraid to loose control…
Because he knew…
But it didn't matter now
He didn't care any more
Because he didn't want to stop.
Because he loved her
And he would let her feel it all…
and slowly he began to touch her,
-here and there.-
Breaking away from their kisses,
-every now and then-.
She understood what was about to happen.
And…she allowed him
She wanted it too.
She wanted to feel him deep with in her
She wanted a memory…
to always remember.
So she would never forget the moment of their love.
and it happened.
and as they shook for the last time in each others arms,
he kissed her deep,
letting both enjoy the moment.
Time stood still,
and they both wished it would never end.
But it had to…
He kissed her for a last time before he removed himself from his position.
He sat down and brought her up with him…
and she wrap her arms around him,
not wanting to let go…
because soon, she knew,
soon he would be leaving.
Gently he groomed her soft pink hair,
His fingers weaved lovingly between her silky hairs.
How could he let her know?
He didn't want to break her heart…
He didn't want to hurt her…
He didn't want her to suffer anymore…
She sensed his worry
And she simply let him know…
"I understand..."
