Last Days of Summer - Modern/Fluff - PG

Arthur and Gwen laid side by side as they watched the sun set, the sky filling with purple, blue and оранжевый hues sending a wonderful glow above the rolling waves that crashed towards the sand. Both wishing that this didn’t have to end; the sun-set, the rolling waves and the feel of their hands intertwined with each other’s, but most of all summer.

It seemed like only yesterday that they had meet at the holiday resort when Gwen accidently knocked her coffee all over Arthur when she bumped into him. Awkward conversation and nervous teasing ensued (mostly on Arthur’s part) and it was not long before they spent every waking минута together. It felt as though they had known each other all of their lives, when only they had known each other for minutes, секунды really.

And now they have to part, Arthur for Лондон and Gwen for New York. She had just moved there after getting a job as an editor and now she wished she didn’t have to go back. If only she had meet Arthur six months earlier.

Finally the sun departs and they both look at each other with such longing that it breaks Gwen’s сердце little by little; especially when his bright sparkling blue eyes that seemed to have brightened more, no doubt by the glow from the moon, and his eyes lock onto hers. And she finds herself downing in them, not wanting to go anywhere, but to stay here. In his eyes, in his warm embrace.

She feels his breathe near her ear as he softly whispered, “A год from now, where ever we are in our lives, lets promise to meet at this beach.” He told her, before moving his head to press a soft Kiss upon her forehead.

And she turned her head up towards his, her eyes locking into his and she didn’t have to say anything at all. He knows her answer; he knew it before he even asked her. She would meet him again and maybe that time it would not merely be a reunion before they depart again to their separate lives. That it would be forever.

And with that thought, he closes his eyes and lets the peaceful breeze lull him to sleep, content with the beautiful woman snuggled in his embrace.
