Wake up the dawn and ask her why?
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
Of The Heart
The sand beneath her feet is hot; it tickles her toes and shimmers under the rays of sun. When she closes her eyes she feels like she can breathe again, she's free and salty waves lap against her skin as she thinks about everything her life has handed her. The hand that brushes against her shoulder sends a tremor through her body, the clean smell of aftershave invading her senses.
"You look beautiful when you're thinking," the stubble on his chin scrapes against her cheek, breath tickling her neck. Fingers weave between her own and she collapses against his body and tilts her head back, meeting blue eyes.
"I was thinking about you.. Us." She shrugs like it's not a big deal. His lips press against the base of her neck, earning a smile and throaty laugh.
"And what did you decide?" another kiss, teeth gently gnawing her earlobe. Her head lolls to the side, exposing more of that soft sensitive flesh.
"I guess you're worth keeping. For now at least." Soft lips on her own, a hand cupping her cheek while a thumb strokes the skin.
"I'll take it," he says, smiling. She notices the way his mouth tilts to the left when he smiles. Innocent, sweet. Her head lays back on his chest and the waves lap against her skin as his arms form a barrier around her, so warm and secure she knows she'll never leave.
