At the end of the date, after having a heated conversation about spicy Mexican dips and creative dishes, the boy and the girl stood outside the mall, holding both hands.

I'm sorry we didn't find your sunglasses the boy said.

The girl replied That's alright.  It just means you'll have to take me out again.

The boy grinned.  His hand reached out and touched her cheek in a soft caress.  Her face grew still.

The boy leaned forwards and kissed her.

She closed her eyes.  He closed his eyes.  They opened them again after a few minutes, pulling slowly away.

Bye she whispered, taking a small backward step, eyes glued to him.

See you later he replied.
