Title: Love Part I
Genre: Romance
Summary: Her thoughts about him. Fluffiness ahead. Ye be warned.
To her, love was the way her name sounded on his lips, especially the way he would whisper it as she was falling asleep. It was the tan hands on her waist that gently brought her hips closer to his. It was the long fingers that tangled in her hair and massaged her scalp. It was the slow rising and falling of his chest as he napped in the afternoon sun.
Love was the way his arms embraced her, making her feel completely safe. It was the way he ruffled her long hair, as though she were a child. It was the comforting scent that permeated his room, somehow part man and part sea.
Love was how his eyes automatically followed her as soon as she entered the same room as him, no matter what he was doing beforehand. Similarly, it was how she seemed to always find herself in the same room as him, as though he was a magnet to her.
It was the look in his eyes that was saved for her and only her. The one that told her so much more than a thousand words ever could.
It was the irritation she felt when after all this time, he still insisted on a chaperone (she called it a babysitter) going with her whenever they docked.
It was the understanding that he wanted to keep her safe and not want to see her get hurt.
It was the smug smirk on his lips when he knew he had won an argument.
It was the scowl on his face when he was unamused by her shenanigans.
Love was the extreme sorrow she felt whenever he had to leave, but also the joy she felt whenever he came back to her.
...it was the heart-wrenching fear that he might never return.
Love was the way he held her like he never wanted to let her go. It was how he would do anything to protect her, even when they were separated by hundreds of enemies.
It was the necklace around her neck and the ring on her hand. It was the child running around with her rebellious nature and his free spirit.
To her, love was everything about him, all the good things and all the bad things.
To her, love was Marco.
No way. There is no way I wrote something this cute. Apparently I did though. It actually came to me as I was lifeguarding at the pool yesterday. Truely, there is nothing the mind cannot think of when it is supposed to be doing something else.
Tell me what you think! Favorite! Follow! Review!
