The Meaning of Love – Chapter 2
Review please :D
The next morning when James woke up he walked into the kitchen and saw Sarah preparing breakfast with Henri.
She's just absolutely beautiful… James thought to himself, and sighed.
Sarah turned around. "Good morning James! Did you say something?"
James blushed. "No, I didn't say anything." Dangit, did I say that out loud?
Sarah smiled to herself. "Oh, okay." The truth was she heard what he said…
"Are you hungry James?" Henri asked in his thick French accent.
"I sure am, Henri. What are we having?" asked James.
Sarah replied, "Biscuits and bacon today."
As they were eating Moses told Henri to go into town and pickup some more ink.
"But… do I have to, Moses?" asked Henri.
"Yes, Henri, without ink we can't print anything." Moses said, sternly.
"Sarah and James, there's a carriage coming to pick you up in 2 hours to take you to Maryland so you can interview General Washington. I thought it would be a good story to put in the paper." Moses told Sarah.
James and Sarah's eyes widened a little bit, but the exchanged glances and small grins for a split second and just knew everything was going to be alright.
"You two can go ahead and pack your bags, Henri and I will clean up."
"Yes sir!" James replied.
In the carriage, James and Sarah felt a little uncomfortable for a while, especially after what happened last night.
"Sarah, what you told me last night… w-was it true?" James asked.
Sarah immediately looked down to her feet, bit her lip, and her cheeks turned nearly crimson red.
"Yes James… I meant everything I said to you last night--"
Before Sarah could even finish her sentence to him, James smiled ear-to-ear and kissed her with everything he had in him.
"James! That is most improp--"
"Sir, could you stop the carriage for a moment, please?" James asked the driver.
"Yes sir, Mr. Hiller."
As soon as the carriage pulled over James took Sarah's hand and pulled her out of the carriage.
"James, what in the world are you doi--"
"I WANT THE WHOLE WORLD TO KNOW THAT I'M IN LOVE WITH THE MOST PERFECT GIRL IN THE WORLD!" James shouted at the top of his lungs, and kissed her again.A few passerby's looked at him funny, though.
"Sarah, I meant everything I just said. I love you. So much."
"Oh, James… you have no idea how long I've wanted to hear you say those words…" She said, and her green eyes gazed into his blue ones.
They held each other's hands and walked back into the carriage. The two of them talked for a while, and when it was getting late, Sarah rested her head on James's shoulders to sleep.
"Good night," James whispered into her ear, and he too fell into a slumber.
