Him

Together, his arm wrapped around my waist, my head resting on his chest, I felt closer to him more than I have anybody. The mundane movie that we watched progressed on and on, but all I could think about was him. His warmth fueled my happiness and I couldn't let go-- I had already grown addicted. My once icy and dreary heart melted in his presence and he was the one to supply the fiery flames to keep me moving. Every glance that I stole from him, I felt a grin betray my stoicism. I scolded myself for letting my emotions overwhelm me, but secretly I was overjoyed that he lay next to me even if it was just for one day.
To my despair, the day drew to a close, he was on his way, and I returned to my lonesome self. However new days bring new journeys and maybe, if I believe, he could be my companion to tackle life's quests.
