Chapter Six- Summer Rain

The kiss was warm and gentle, like summer rain, washing away all her worries and sorrows. Alex locked her arms around his neck, running her fingers through his hair.

Sayid pulled her closer, rubbing her back, moving his mouth from her lips to her neck. Alex gasped slightly as he fluttered soft kisses on her shoulders, her neck and her cheeks.

Their lips met once again, sending shivers up and down her spine.

When the kiss ended, Alex laid her head on his shoulder and whispered his name. Still holding her in his arms, Sayid said softly in her ear "I love you, Alex."

Alex smiled, raised her head off his shoulder and kissed him tenderly "I love you too, Sayid." She nestled back into his arms. Sayid hugged her closer, breathing in the sweet smell of her hair. He knew he would do anything to keep Alex from being that hurt ever again.

And that's how they fell asleep, snuggled in each others arms and hearts.
