Summer: Truly, madly, deeply

The song I used is Truly Madly Deeply, by Savage Garden.


Her head rested against his shoulder, his cheek softly placed onto her hair. Her eyes were closed and her face was buried into his neck, causing him to feel every single one of her breath, every single one making him shiver. As she had her arms wrapped around his torso, he stroke her back.

Carefully placing their feet around, without any regularity, they swayed onto their song. It weren't the words of the singer that made him fall in love with her all over again. It wasn't just the melody either. It were the few words she spoke so often, the few words he loved to hear and reply to.

Her fingers dug into his skin as they continued their dance of freedom. With him being busy with work and her waiting for him forever, they hadn't had this much spare time for just the two of them. Usually, when he returned home, she had fallen asleep, still in her day-clothes, on their bed. He woke her every time, so she could get dressed for bed and sometimes join him for a last cup of tea of the day.

He would never change her clothes while she was asleep.

She trusted him. He didn't know what had all happened to her in Inuzuri, and he was afraid to upset her if he would ask. He never wanted to frighten her, so he avoided most moments in which there were most chances of scaring her.

She stirred and pulled him closer, for as much was possible. He smiled a tiny smile and closed his eyes not to miss anything of her.

I'll be your dream

I'll be your wish

I'll be your fantasy

I'll be your hope

I'll be your love

Be everything that you need

She was this all to him. His dream, his hope.. his love. She was there when he needed her and she was there when he wanted to be alone. It never mattered to her if he told her to leave him on his own; she'd be there, anyway.

And he loved her for it.

He trembled when he felt her lips onto his neck. A couple of butterfly kisses were placed on his skin and he could remember every one of it. These memories were the ones he treasured, the ones he'd ditch everything in his mind for to keep.

Just the two of them, listening to the same music, each heartbeat, each breath they took…

..and that's the way they danced on, together, forever.
