She could feel him watching her as she walked up his garden, officially pleased with herself. "Are you drunk?" He called out as she reached his front gate. She turned slowly. It was a fact that alcohol made you do stupid things. The moon caught her eye then, it was bright tonight, and she smiled back down at him. "No, I haven't" She grinned. He closed the gap between them, with his long strides, and took her in his arms. He kissed her now, elated at the thought. This time it was a long passionate kiss that made her feel weak at the knees. "You have no idea how many years I have wanted to do that." He grinned then kissed her on the forehead. Then he became awkward, not knowing what to say, "do you, uh, want to come in?" She shook her head but grinned at the thought of spending a couple of hours in his arms. "Best not, I've left all the lights on at home" He looked disappointed when she said this and she smiled. "Will your mum care if you walk me home and if I maybe kept you for a couple hours" "No, not at all" His mother called from the door and she blushed. "I guess you're stealing me then" He grinned, taking her hand, then winked at her. She looked up at the moon again. I'll remember you like this, she thought and she knew she would. She knew she would remember the day she realised she was in love. The day she ran in the rain to see someone she had seen thousands of times before and to kiss lips that she had dreamt about kissing so many times. She might not have been drunk but she was suddenly in awe of a feeling she had suppressed for a long time. She was happy with herself and happy with him. She was happy with the kiss and the moon she'd never forget.
It was still raining. It took her until they got to the end of her road to realise. "They all knew" She wondered aloud. "I know" He replied. "Did you know?" "No but I hoped" He grinned. "Ah okay" She said then looked up at him. He wasn't looking at her, not at all, he was staring up at the moon. "Pretty, isn't it?" She grinned. "Yeah" He mused then looked at her. "Promise me something"
