So she was dreaming. That explained how he was suddenly able to speak. But she didn’t mind. Some of her best and worst dreams were with Cecil. The best, because, well, isn’t it obvious? And the worst, were filled with her deepest fears of losing Cecil in every possible way. She would become so frightened, so heartbroken by those nightmares, she found herself crying upon waking, or sometimes even screaming. The thought of losing him…words couldn’t explain the pain. But whether this was a nightmare with a nice beginning or if it was just a good dream, had yet to be found out. For now, she would just enjoy it while it lasted.
She listened intently as he spoke, her heart thumping harder and harder the further he went, until it was racing. He took her face into his hands, and she froze with anticipation. His words were carved into her mind to leave a scar and forever remain, for she ensured this. She waited patiently for him to say something she hoped she would hear for the longest time, hoping she wasn’t the only one in love. And then he began to lean, and he pressed his lips against hers, causing her to suppress a gasp of surprise.
Though seemingly frozen from surprise, she was completely capable of pulling away if she wanted. However, this was exactly what she wanted. So instead, she savored the moment, trying to memorize everything before it was over. However, it was over too soon. She opened her eyes when he broke the kiss, looking into his own eyes, entranced.
And then there it was. The words she had waited so long to hear. ‘I love you’…’I love you’…the words echoed in her mind, and her heart leapt with joy. Scratch that, she felt like it was singing. She broke into a bright smile and practically attacked him into another embrace, wrapping her arms around his neck. “Oh, Cecil,” she said. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for you to say those words!” She leaned back to look at him, but kept her arms around his neck. With eyes full of happiness, and deep love for him, she confessed her feelings for him with upmost sincerity, “Cecil, I’ve never been as happy in my entire life as I am with you. I love you so much!” There was much more she wished to say, but she wanted to say them for real when they wake. Otherwise, they didn’t hold as much meaning or sincerity, she felt.
However, here she had the chance to kiss him as much as she wished, something she didn’t have enough gall to do in reality. So, she leaned forward and locked her lips with his once more, a kiss that started off sweet and innocent as she poured her love into it. Then, it gradually began to become more passionate without her intention. She didn’t mind passionate kisses, but she felt it could cause her feelings misunderstood for lust instead of love. She usually didn’t let anything get passionate until further along in a relationship, if it was serious, that is.
His lips were so warm against hers, her heart pounding hard in her chest. She couldn’t bring herself to stop. She just couldn’t let this chance go before she woke.
