"There are people staring at us," he remarked, taking a slow sip from his tea.
"Well, of course they're going to stare. It's not every day you lay eyes on someone of my rank and beauty," she replied haughtily, flipping her light honey colored hair ostentatiously.
He snorted at this statement, but still wore a frown.
She rolled her eyes and said, "Stop being so melodramatic. You're sure they're staring at us?"
"Yes, of course I'm sure. They look almost… disgusted or something," he responded quietly.
She glanced up at the other patrons of the café to confirm this. A few of them were indeed watching them with scrutinizing eyes.
Impulsively, she took one of his hands in her own. She gazed at her hands and his, noting the contrast between the chocolate brown and the pale peach. Abruptly, she looked back up at him and squeezed his hand.
"Don't let it bother you. I love you. And no matter what they think or say, that won't change," She declared with a fierce tone.
He smiled and whispered, "That's what I like about you. So rebellious."
With that, he leaned across their small circular table and gave her a gentle peck on the nose.
Finir.
Kitten and Hotspot. Didn't see that one comin', I hope. ;) This one was partially inspired by the song A Long Way to Go.
