How beautiful you are.

Ian pulls me into him. He is holding both of my hands behind my back and pulling me close to him, so close I can feel his erection. "Have I told you today how beautiful you are?" I stand there, taken by surprise at his words. I am speechless so I mutely shake my head. He places his hands at my jaw line while he slowly runs his thumbs over my cheekbones. Then he looks into my eyes and says, "You are the most beautiful thing I keep in my heart." As tears fill my eyes, I can't speak. My heart is pounding, and I think I am holding my breath. Even if I could talk, I don't know what to say so I say it the only way I know how; I pull his face to mine, kissing him.
