Sunsets with you are, as cliche as it sounds, always magical.

MagiCAL, HAHA!

Bad one? Good one?

I rinse another plate, putting it in our nice, sliver dishwasher.

Our mums had gotten it for our moving in present, since we desperately needed a dishwasher.

I stick my hands into the sudsy water, and pull out a glass, wiping it clean with a dish towel.

"Lukey, come with me!" You say, rushing into the kitchen.

You take one of my sud-covered hands, and drag me outside, despite my protests.

"Wait!" You cover my eyes with your hands. "Okay sit...here!"

"Am I sitting on the car's hood? Haha, hood. Calum Hood."

"You aren't funny, Luke. Now...ta da!"

I open my eyes to the prettiest sunset, filled with glorious orange shades, pale purples, and pinks like the hues on 'it's a girl!' balloons.

"This is breathtaking, Calum."

"Just like you," We both say at the same time, before giggling.

"I'm going to get something." You slide off the car hood.

When you return, you have two glasses of white zinfandel, grinning widely.

"Cheers," I say, clinking my glass with yours after you hand it to me.

"This is the life," You sigh comfortably, and I rest my head on your shoulder.

"It really is."

Romantic, right?

But sometimes during those sunsets, I would rather gaze at you.

You, under that amazing sky, look tan and filled with wonder.

You look like a masterpiece, like if I touch you, you won't be real.

But your tan, smooth skin, and dark, curling hair are not simply oil pastels and paints.

You are real, and you are mine.

And I am so grateful that I am yours.
