"Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own." ~ Robert A. Heinlein
RUBY M’CLARKE P.O.V
“Thank you, for this night, Nikolas.”
He was laying on his back, but he turned his face towards me.
Before he could say anything, I reached out to touch his face. He watched me, waiting patiently.
I traced his nose with my finger, sliding down to the almost feminine shape of his lips and swirling it to the angles of his cheekbones. He closed his eyes as I slowly touched his eyebrows, a small smile flirting on his lips. When I stopped, he opened his eyes and stared at me with emotion that choked me up. I moved closer and gently kissed him.
When I pulled away, his arm snaked around me. Curling his hand around my nape, he pulled me close again.
