Kissing in the Mud

He stared at me, his eyes suddenly intense. He leaned forward and my heart was pounding.
Our lips met and I kissed him.
I kissed him in the rain. And I wrapped my mud-covered arms around him and I knew he didn’t mind. My head was swimming, I felt so dizzy with happiness.
If I had imagined the moment for this kiss, this would never have been it. The situation would have been more romantic- a sunset, perhaps.
But it was perfect, and I wouldn’t have changed a single thing about it.
We broke apart and he smiled at me, “I know it’s a little late to be asking, but will you go out with me?”
It was all I could do to reply. “Yes,” I breathed, and he smiled.
And everything was suddenly right in the world.

The End
