The soft chirp of bugs. The sounds of the water of the lake streaming by. The soft rays of light as the sun descends upon the horizon. His home was more beautiful than she imagined. It seemed so natural and undamaged by age, time, and hurt. As they sat on the bank of the lake, her back leaning on his warm chest, Eira began to think that life couldn't be so bad with Michael by her side.
Eira gazed back at Michael whose face was painted with the golden light of the setting sun. She couldn't help but marvel at how handsome and gentle looking he was. Her heart burst with a million feelings, all affection for him. It was at this moment that she felt so lucky to have his love. Out of the millions of girls out in the world, he chose her. He chose little insignificant her in the most unexpected of times.
Michael tilted his head to the side in a questioning manner. "What are you looking at? Are you reconsidering your love for me?" He asked in a joking tone.
"Never." She whispered, capturing his lips with hers. "You are mine as I am yours." And so they sat by the lakeside, hearts and spirits entwined as one, making love and making memories to last many lifetimes.
