Their hands are entangled. Their eyes are locked. Three simple words stand between them.
I love you.
Three simple words. One step hesitating.
I love you.
Why can neither of them say it? Why is it so hard? Three simple words. One chance.
I love you.
Yet, neither say it. Their eyes speak; their voices cant. Silence. But, they think it clearly.
I love you.
Finally, to end the torment, someone says it softly. Three little words. One step forward.
I love you.
Does it matter who said it?
Their eyes spark. Three simple words. One step... leading into one kiss.
