Suddenly the weather would last till the end of time. He wouldn’t miss it; it would be there when they exited. That was if they left together. And for some reason Heath hoped they would. He didn’t think twice, outstretching the black-gloved arm he always led with and let his golden eyes shine. I wouldn’t keep a lady from what she desires. His teeth could be seen in his smile as he moved to take her hand.
It was out of character, but felt so natural. It was easy to give her what she wanted and give into her sweet demand. It was a simple thing, and Heath was surprisingly happy to let her take him through the winding halls, letting them get lost among the shelves. It felt so easy to just let her lead. |
