Random Stranger pt 4

The brief shock of her ice-cold finger on my skin
My blood was getting thin
My face was the color of mars
She wrapped her index around mine
The moment froze in time

She shifted closer
I could smell her aroma
Her middle finger was next
lifting mine and interlacing hers

It got to the ring finger
This was the moment
I felt her finger linger
She reached for the hand placed over her shoulder
Locked her fingers with mine
Shifted up again, this was life

It was the first time I could feel so clearly
The surroundings near me
She lifted up her head again
With a look of pain
I wasn't sure what to do
I hadn't been in a situation that actually moved

She put her lips to my ear
And told me to take some initiative
I couldn't remove her from my sight
She was my light

The blink of her blue starry eyes
A breath in
They reddening of her pale cheeks
A breath out
I'm not sure what I should do
Should I initiate it nice and smooth?

Screw it
I placed my hand on her cheek
Her blushing reached a peak
I leaned in
Not all the way
To see if she would retaliate
Tender embrace
A vibrant red mixed with a muddied down pink
The beginning is only starting
I don't ever want to be parted

I whispered in her ear
Sweet heart promise me
You'll still be mine next year
Stay with me through the fear
Join me in shedding happy tears
Stay with me till the end
Till our lives part and take separate bends
Stick with me till you can't anymore
I will treat you right
I'll never give you reasons to walk out the door
