Part 7:
It was absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. From this specific spot you could see the whole city and the bridge.
From all the way up here...and if I wanted to peer down further I would have loved to see the shoreline, it was just beautiful and made me realize how little people really look at life.
How many people actually come here to see the city, probably none.
"Leo...it's absolutely beautiful." I stated in awe.
I heard him say something but I really didn't catch it, but I really wasn't paying attention either
.This was amazing and turning the night around, I really couldn't ask for more. I turned around to see Leo walking back up by me and carrying our food.
"Yeah it really is, and I thought that we could sit up here, eat, be able to get away from everyone and watch the sunset."
He smiled that smile and I didn't care as long as I was with him forever.
He actually remembered when I told him that I loved to watch the sunset because it was the one thing in life along with the sunrise that looked perfect.
"I would love that." I smiled just watching him as he threw down an old blanket and set the food up.
I crouched on the blanket and finally sat down completely comfortable. Right now it couldn't get any more perfect than this.
Leo the first and only guy I have ever liked a lot is sitting on the ground right next to me, while we were sharing a meal and watching the sunset, what could get better?!?
I just sat there and smiled in-between eating my cheeseburger, I was so excited. I was just eating and enjoying the scenery and the bustle of the city beneath us, how the people on the bridge were rushing to get home to families.
Everything was so majestic, the sun slowly setting, casting shadows on some places and magnificent glows on others.
A slight breeze began to pick up as the sun began to set more.
Leo had already cleaned up the food and put everything back into the truck. I sat up and pulled my knees up to my chest watching the few remaining minutes of the sunset.
I was always a book worm and I loved one specific poet, Robert Frost.
The way he described things in his poems were amazing. One specific poem stuck out to me at that moment in time and I just whispered it, lost in the moment.
Leo looked over at me with an intrigued glance and grinned " What were you just saying?"
"Nothing....it was really stupid." I sighed embarrassed.
"Really...what was it?"
Well I was going to sound like a complete and total idiot but I opted to tell him anyway.
"It...I was....just saying a poem that I remembered." I admitted as I fiddled with some grass.
I felt really stupid and I was complete sure that my geek side was showing...how embarrassing, now all I needed to do was practice the laugh and I would have it made.
"How does it go." Leo wondered
I just looked at him in disbelief.
I've known him for 3 years now and I never would have guessed that he would have cared at all about a little poem, most guys don't, but then again Leo wasn't most guys. Leo looked at me again and raised his eyebrows waiting and I just sighed. "Ok....Natures first green is gold...her hardest hew to hold...her early leafs a flower...but only so an hour...then leaf subsides to leaf....so eaden sank to grief....so dawn goes down to day....and nothing gold can stay." He looked as me amazed and smiled. I looked quickly away as the sun finally set with a few stray golden rays casting light on the far hills near the horizon.
