Not yet (A short story)

4. Not yet

Would everyone see the stars as she saw them?

Would others experience the joy that she experienced differently than she did?

She caressed the creature lying beside her and tried to be aware of her happiness.

She knew it wouldn't last but what meaning does time have for one who is happy?

And so she dreamt on...

In his dreams he had saved the world with her, survived a war and a nuclear disaster and at one point he stood with her at the cradle of a new beginning for mankind.

He knew that one day he would meet her in the real world and so it was.

In his dreams she was blond and here he was sitting next to a brunette. And yet is was her.

They exchanged looks and words but never more than that.

Not yet.

 Here's where I proposed...

 And she said yes...!

With a question in her eyes she held up the bottle. With his arm outstretched he offered her his empty glass.

He envied the sun for it could caress her cheek unpunished.

But perhaps the sun envied her. After all, she shone ten times more beautifully and softly.

He never liked those receptions in the middle of the day but sometimes there was no escaping them.

Not that he regretted being here now but rather would he let his dreams and thoughts be cloaked by the darkness of the night.

What's up, folks?
I know I haven't been very active here for quite some time, thanks to the old excuses kids, partner, work, holiday and household. Am working on a Skywatch online-album but in the meantime I thought I'd show you these:

As a little bonus here's a little clip, showing you what kind of stuff I'm up to nowedays. I'm the one closing the doors at the end of this little video...;-)
