I saw him standing across the room.
He walked up to me, and stared at me with a gentle face.
I was confused. "What's wrong?" I said.
No words came from his mouth, but his glistening eyes said everything.
He took the piece of hair that was hanging in front of my face
and tucked it behind my ear.
His hand lingered on my cheek. I put my hand on his and looked down.
I didn't know what to say, but he did.
"Did you ever think," he paused, "that we should be together?"
I looked up at him; my breathing grew heavier.
"Yes." I said.
That was when he leaned in slowly, and kissed me.
...
And then I woke up.
