Just a glimpse

Another one of the moments that almost was but never came to be… Although eventually had our moment(s)

 

We are in another place surrounded by people. This time it is at the movie theatre. The both of us on our 2nd viewing of The Avengers. It the midst of our awe of the “3-D” viewing of the movie; I began a little dance, as I often do. I believe you said that I was cute. I didn’t quite hear you and asked for you to repeat yourself. [we talk during movies. Everyone hates it. But it’s one of my favorite things ever] Just as you did. It happened. Time literally stood still. I could see the dust suspended in the air. I caught my glimpse of you. THE GLIMPSE to end all glimpses. Even with them heavy 3D glasses. You were IT. The light against your deliciously soft skin, with the darkness swallowing everything around you; I wanted nothing more than to press my lips against yours before enduring a battle of tongues that would last an eternity. In that split second I came up with a million reasons to hold back. The one that truly stopped me was rejection. Idk that we would’ve made it this far if I went in and came out with my lips untouch. And when I saw you? I think you knew. Alas, I saved the meeting for another rendezvous. Immediately I regretted it. I’m a man of expression and risks. What’s another rejection from you gonna do? Tear my soul apart? Been there… I kept it inside though, fearing that what we were building (whatever it was) needed more time. All was not lost however. For you spoke words to me you had not uttered in just about 2 years (give or take a couple months either way). I LOVE YOU. And so ended our night (in the physical presence at least). I wasn’t truly convinced until a few weeks later when the flame was finally officially rekindled. But it was the first affirmation that I was headed in the right direction….
