A Moment of Bliss

They stopped at a corner, waiting for the traffic light to change. He pulled her closer to him, wrapping his arm around her waist. She leaned her head on his chest, feeling his heartbeat. He kissed the top of her head, inhaling her sweet scent. He whispered in her ear, “You are the best thing that ever happened to me.” He lowered his head and captured her lips with his, kissing her gently but passionately.. They forgot about the world around them, the rain, the cars, the people. They only felt each other, their warmth, their connection.

They broke the kiss and smiled at each other, their faces glowing with happiness. He lifted the umbrella over their heads, shielding them from the rain. He said, “Let’s go home.”
