Followed by coffee and conversation
She smiles. He does too.
A lot of wine and some cider
A silly movie
And a dark cozy room
Fidgeting fingers, restless arms
and a questioning mind
Moving closer
Bit by bit
Wary, unsure, sure?
Tickling on the arm
Another arm around a tummy
Fingers playing with hair
Unnecessary conversation
And then a kiss- soft and gentle
A million racing thoughts
Almost an objective disposition
Passions stirs
And then an absolutely stupid question
He looks startled
Or maybe bemused?
And almost apologetic when he answers
She hadn't meant to probe
A goodnight kiss
She wants to scream in glee
Instead returns to her room
Amused, joyous, singing and free
Firm in her belief that
Its when you least expect it that things do happen
