Hey guys!
Here's the fluff I promised. Read on:
3rd POV:
Kat looked out to sea, sleek, black hair tumbling from her sculpted, angular face. Her long, dark lashes cast shadows on her high cheekbones in the dim light, as the midnight blue skirts of her muslin, floor length dress billowed in the breeze.
Hale, watching her, was certain he had never seen anyone as beautiful in his life.
Kat was so thin; the scapula of her bare back looking like wings, every bone of her spine clearly visible. Her grip on the balcony rail tightened and the long line of her jaw clenched, the only signs she had heard his approach.
Hale knew it was now or never. If he didn't speak now, she would be gone forever.
"I want to be that guy," he began. "I want to be your guy."
Kat turned and looked up to him, blue eyes wide.
"The thought of you being with anyone else... it drives me crazy. You drive me crazy." He paused for a second. "I want to be with you."
Her mind whirred with happy images of their life before them: a kiss, a quiet wedding with close family and friends, children; grandchildren.
"Tell me how you feel. If it isn't as I do, just say the world and I'll let you go. I'll let you go if it makes you happy."
She stared at him, gaze unwavering, attention undivided, but made no sound.
"Please, speak."
Then she did. "You make me happy. I want to be with you," she murmured, now clinging to Hale.
And then they kissed, slowly, softly, but deeply...
...their fates sealed.
Sorry for it's shortness. :P
Please review! I can always write more fluff if you desire it.
Thx.
Peace!
