Dating's good. It's relaxed and it's fun.
It's being twenty-two again and putting aside your responsibilities for an hour or two.
It's only having yourselves to think about in a life where you usually come bottom of the list.
Movies and dinner and walks on the beach.
Picnics in the dark, kisses in the daylight.
Parking up and making out.
Putting on the brakes when it's the last thing you want to do.
Breathless apologies.
Dirty giggles.
The moans when you hit the spot.
The gasps when she does the same.
Murmured confessions that you want her naked in your bed.
Whispered promises that you can have exactly what you want.
But not until next time, because right now she's expected home.
Dating is anticipation, and it's all good.
