One Simple Kiss

We walk hand in hand down the middle of an abandoned road. He stops and pulls me to face him. The sun is setting next to us and stretches our shadows out away from us.

I wrap my arms around his neck and he slips his hands into my back pockets. The cool autumn breeze picks up, playing with my hair. I catch the sent of him in the breeze and breath it in. He is my favorite smell in the world.

I smile as I look into his eyes. He returns my smile with a loving one of his own. Gently he takes one of his hands and brushes back my hair that the wind had blown in my face.

“Thanks.” I breathe.

“Anytime.” He answers quietly.

I wrap my arms tighter, pulling him into me. I lean my forhead on his and sigh a calming sigh. There is no where else I want to be but here in his arms at this moment.

As the sun is slipping below the horizon, he tilts his head back slightly to kiss my lips. It is gently, and our lips barely touch, but I can feel all his love in his one simple kiss.
