I Drank her Silence

The moment she came into view his heart stuttered and he had to pause.
Blues watched her saunter up to him across the parking lot. That little slip of a woman did not simply walk, she sauntered, skipped, danced or swayed to whatever happy melody was in her head at the moment.
She sparkled and sparked as she moved. Heads turned to watch this beautiful creature pick him to come to.
When she was standing before him, so small not even reaching his chin, he felt his heart break open and he let his breath go.
It was time to stop the dream. Time to live it instead.
Before he could even move her happy grin lit up her face and she wrapped her arms around his middle. Pressing her head to his chest she molded her body against his.
God, she felt amazing and he wrapped his arms around her tight.
His cheek laid to the top of her head and they stood there, locked in each others arms for a few moments. Neither one of them wanted to let go. He knew this. She did as well and that made him happy.
It was time.
He pulled back a little then lifted his hands to cup her cheeks .
His heart pounding in his chest he began to speak.

"I want to tell you something." he said and she nodded, green eyes staring into his bright and filled with anticipation.

His thumbs slid over her skin and the need to taste her took over. His lips captured hers in a deep kiss. He felt her respond to him and he groaned as her tongue touched his.
She was delicious like he thought she would be and he underestimated his response to her.
He felt like he was falling into an abyss of desire. He could not lose control now. No. He needed to tell her how he felt, it had to be said.

Pulling back he stared into her eyes once again.

"I love you little one. Love you so much and I want to give this a shot. I have no clue what to do, where to start but right now.....let's do this...together." he said in a rush.

Her small hands slid up his chest and her body pressed to his.
Green eyes said sentences...no not just sentences, they were paragraphs of how she felt.
Tears glistened at the corner of her eyes and she was smiling. A happy, bright, loving smile but she said nothing. She did not have to.

I drank her silence like liquor and it destroyed me the same, but I fell for all of her, hopelessly and endlessly.
My soul will always be lifted when she walks into the room and my blood will always dance when her breath passes through me.
