The Clock Tower

It wasn't illegal, well not exactly anyways. It was an open campus, it’s not like we broke into any buildings. Just the clock tower.  It was beautiful up there, we could see for miles. Looking up we the skies were so clear that we could count the stars. The cold hard brick sat beneath us as we stared up into the abyss, looking at her I saw her eyes sparkle in the starlight. She truly was beautiful. In every aspect of the word she exceeded in every single one. She looked at me, her hair gently falling across her shoulders. I panicked, turning my head I looked up toward the stars. Luckily a star shot across the night sky. “Look” I said pointing toward the heavens. “Yes, it is quite beautiful” she said looking down at her hands. Almost by instinct I reached up and turned her face toward mine “Not as beautiful as you” I could not hold it in any longer, I leaned in and brushed my lip on her soft cheek. Pulling back I looked directly into her auburn eyes that seem to dance in the starlight. This time I did not miss, her light pink lips were soft and warm. We separated and sat back on the brick wall behind us. And there we sat, enjoying each other’s company.
