The Blue Eyes of Love

Mike: We had better finish our shelter. Up to it?
Me: Sure.

Mike and I go into the forest to get some palm leaves and grasses to cover the top of your shelter.

Me: I will get them and you can hold on to them.
Mike: Ok.

I smiled and looked at him.

Me: Really?
Mike: What?
Me: You are agreeing to working with me. I thought you thought I was too weak.
Mike: At least give you a try. You did fight of Kahn.
Me: Ya…

Why did he have to bring that up? I frowned.

Mike: Oh sorry I shouldn’t have brought that up.
Me: Let’s just get our shelter ready.
Mike: Demi?
Me: Ya?

He concentrated on my eyes. I looked at his and focused on the blues of his eyes. I feel better now.

Mike: I love you too. I should have said that earlier.
