I've been in love with you for seven years

I stayed up late speaking with Brion. It had been days since I last saw him, so he wanted to fill the void created during my absence. He was like a clingy kid who refused to let go. I held a glass of wine in hand as we watched the stars. It was a clear night, with beautiful stars glittering in the moonless sky. The soft breeze blowing from our garden gave the night a fragrant smell. I could even taste the smell of the flowers in the air. Sitting on the double swings and observing the sky, with glasses in our hands, gave me the most wholesome feeling ever.

“This has always been my dream,” Brion muttered beside me, swinging slowly. “If only I could pause the moment and live in it forever.”

I stopped scanning the sky and turned to glance at him, to see his expression. It was one of contentment. He looked as if he had gotten everything he ever wanted, and more.

He took a sip of his wine and turned to look at me. His beautiful green eyes sparkled, telling stories his lips couldn't.
