Timothy had always thought that Elaine was beautiful, but there was something about the way she looked tonight. He could not explain it, but for the first time since they had met, he was having trouble keeping his eyes off of her. Her red hair shimmered like silk when the light touched it, and the urge to run his fingers through it nearly bested him. A large, bright smile moved over her features, and he found himself smiling because of it. He'd always thought she was beautiful, but he hadn't realized that she was gorgeous until this very moment. 10.. 9.. 8.. 7.. 6.. 5.. Come morning, he wouldn't be able to explain what had come over him as the countdown to the new year began. He would only know that the desire to kiss her had overcome him. "Four.. three.. two.." Due to the sheer amount of people counting together, it was not noticed when he belatedly joined in the chorus. He made sure that his eyes locked with hers as they neared the last second, and he held her gaze until everyone around them erupted in celebration. Then, without thinking about the possible consequences, he pulled her to him and pressed his lips to hers. Some would have thought that he had kissed her as a courtesy, but he lingered in the embrace far longer than he would have had that been the case. |
