Until you’re in my arms, girl And all those broken promises we made to each other We have so much more to give I know that we can do this

That’s how I want to live Eternally, together

The longer the song plays the more I think about us. I can feel her heartbeat, and I’m wondering what it sounds like when she excited. How fast it goes when she sees me. If she’s anything like me, it should feel like it’s getting ready to beat out of her chest. The more I think about it, the more I just want everything that is Tina Kennard. She must’ve read my mind because she held me closer and I squeezed her butt softly. Instead of being reprimanded again, she sighed. I think at this point she deserve some truth from me. Before all the ***** happens tonight.

“I can’t wait until this is all mine, Tina.”

“Just my *****?” As cute as that idea is…

“No though that would be great. I mean this….” I kiss her lips. “And this….” I trail a slow trail over the sides of her body. “And this” Lastly, I lay my palm on her heart and focus all of my energy into looking at her. I have to remember Kit’s words, treat her right everyday. At this moment, it seems like the easiest thing to do.

All I wanna do is spend a lifetime with you baby

All I wanna do is spend a lifetime with you baby

It takes her some time to react to my admission and this point we’ve stopped dancing. She hasn’t taken her eyes off of me. I guess she’s searching to see if there was any chance that I could lying to her. Or if I was afraid in any way. But she took a deep breathe and spoke.

“What makes you think you don’t already have those things Bette?” She said continuing our dance.

“I do?”

“What have you gone stupid or something. Of course you do.”

“No, I knew. Just making sure that you knew.” Total bullshit. Her confession didn’t scare me ,but it surprised me. I knew that she cared for me, but to have her heart. I am truly honored.

“Well thank you.”

“You’re so very welcome.”

Will you make it happen for us now Please this time You know I need your touch honey

I want your touch honey Like the morning sun has just begun Girl, like the rain on my window pane Girl, if I could make you stay More than one day

Eternally together Oh girl I need your touch Oh girl I want your loving Sweet, you know that we can make it happen

For you and for me to be And eternally together we will be

“Kiss me.”

I felt the need to show her that this one would be different from all the others. It wouldn’t be done out of lust, there would be plenty of time for that. It wouldn’t be done in secret, because we are beyond it. I want her to feel all the desire that I have ever had for a person in this one kiss. The song ended just in time for her to hear me clearly.

“I love you. I always have.” I tried to say it clear, so there would be no doubt in her mind about my intentions. But it came out a little choked. All of my emotions got clogged in my throat. Not satisfied with my words, I looked in her eyes again and placed a gentle kiss on her lips. Not much, but it was enough for now. I wanted to let her know with that kiss that I would never hurt her and that I would protect her til the end of time.

What I didn’t expect her to do was respond. She tried to, but as I held her tight, I felt her body get wobbly and then completely limp in my arms.
