I figured it out, saw the mistakes of up and down, meet in the middle, there's always room for common ground...Zayn heartily sings out of the car radio. It is a calm, full moon night adorned by the stars twinkling above. A gentle wind brushes the top of the trees as the fireflies dance around in a party of their own. The fading city lights can be seen miles away bringing a sense of distance.
Axl looks out of the window. Everything is going smooth. Not once did he think his evening was lame, which bothers him a bit. Something is not right, but why? And something is missing, but what?
He turns to look at her while keeping an arm on the steering wheel and resting the other arm on the top of her seat. She smiles, coyly. Sue has just toed off her cap toe heels and is rubbing the balls of her feet. "Urgh, those shoes were killing me!" she confesses. "Watch it, Suenderella. You don't want to lose your shoes, and maybe have a prince chasing you." he jests. "Maybe I do." she giggles. He comes closer and notes the braid on her hair is actually an alice band. Girls can be so distracting.
Yet not enough to make him forget his obligations. Axl checks his cell phone. As much as he wants to spend the rest of the night with her he doesn't want to disappoint his dad. Also, his grandma is still home and he wants to prove her he can be as good – or even better than any snobby Princeton grandson of her church friends.
"We have five minutes left." he informs keeping back the device. "So?" Sue questions. Exactly. Five minutes to do what? Sit there and comment on the choice of her hairstyle? Or what he really thinks about his pink bow tie and if it should or should not match his boutonniere? Better yet, they could discuss their mother's arrangements of where they slept the previous night, Pat was in Sue's room so she was sleeping in Axl's bed while he, ah well, had to settle with the couch.
"Ah, never mind," she yawns, "It was a great night, through and through." Axl grins, proud he made her happy in a way. "Thanks for taking me." Sue touches his arm while thanking him. He looks down at her hand and then back at her.
They are facing each other now. No need of words to be exchanged, anymore. He approaches her pressing his lips gently against hers. It is only when she pouts back he can feel safe to go ahead and kiss her properly.
Sue rests her hands on his shoulders as he places one hand on the small of her back and the other on the nape of her neck. He brings her closer as the kiss deepens, his tongue sliding freely between her parted lips.
Finally, everything makes sense again, all is right and nothing is missing. A perfect night is followed by a perfect kiss is his personal motto and now that it has happened he can rest assured.
Axl rushes home, slightly upset good things must come to an end but what can he do, the world is turning, he can't stop it.
