her heart was throbbing with excitement. she couldn't help but take a moment to admire the mural that was painted on the wall; yellows and purples and pinks; it was so perfect. climbing the narrow stairs she reached a dead line half way through. she regathered herself just in time to see him laying there tightly wound in his bedsheets. she crept in next to him, he almost died himself.
"it's just me! it's just me!"
without hesitation he wrapped his arms around her and mumbled, "no, I'm okay. you're my protection."
they walked and then they kept walking. laughing and singing barefoot down on the steamy cement. good community surrounds them which instantly gave her comfort.
"I'm going to show you something today," he smirks.
listening to poor pop music, singing along to lyrics people mock; it couldn't get any better. they finally reached the infamous "private property" and they eagerly trespassed. piles and piles of large sand hills surrounds them; then she sees what resembles a small, very sandy, lagoon. the water is aqua blue; it looks as if it were taken straight from the ocean.
"I'm going to jump right in."
clothes suddenly piled on the sandy surface, they prepare themselves for the arctic plunge. without hesitation she jumps in first, while he slowly crept in inch by inch.
"I don't know how you managed to do that so easily," he shivers causing him to choke on his smile. He watched her swim around freely in awe; his eyes drawn to every movement she made as she floated on the surface of the water. this could almost be a dream.
with empty packs of cigarettes and an empty bottle of wine, the sun had decided to finally leave us. she felt so cliche; she normally didn't believe in fairy tales, but she felt as though she could have lived in that moment forever.
laying in her own bed she couldn't stop smiling. she could still smell him on her skin as she let the days events flow through her mind over and over. it was in that moment where she pieced it together: he had truly fallen from the sky, because it was all to good to be true.
