Waking in the silence, a luminous silence.
Breathing in and out, our bodies flush against each other, pushing against each other as we breathed together. It is a perfect silence. One in which I could live in for the rest of my life, just here in this moment, captured within, never letting go. But within reality, one must let go sometime, but then again can recapture the moment again, only it would be different. A new breath- taking experience to live. A whole new memory to make and to remember. This is a memory I will never forget. No matter what happens in the future. No matter what lays ahead. Or for that matter, what lays behind. There's no looking back on this long un-tread road. For if you look back too long you get lost within the past and the present simply disappears.
I stare into his face and get lost within it. He looks so at peace, a peace that I had never seen upon his face before. And then his eyes open and he stares back into me, a smile stealing along his face. His palm reaches up and caresses my cheek, moving down to hold my neck gently, his thumb tracing my jaw line. He sits up and brings me with him. I go to grab the blanket to cover myself but he grabs both of my hands and tells me that there is no need for that, that to him I'm perfect and should know it too. He then tells me to close my eyes, and with a little coaxing I do. He leaves my hands bare within my lap and replaces his own upon my face, cupping it as if he were to drink me in. I peak and find that his eyes are closed also and therefore shut my own, feeling as if I had cheated. He traces every inch of my face, from my lips to my eyes. Telling me that he never wants to forget what I look like, both in life and in his dreams. Always wanting to remember.
I in turn take his hands and place them into his own lap, telling him to keep his eyes closed as he had told me only moments before. Keeping my own eyes closed I trace his face, making the same promise that he had made to me. To always remember.
A/N: As promised, an update for today. Hopefully I'll be able to get another out soon.
As always reviews warm my heart.
