Rooftop Pool, A Bikini, And A Crybaby..

MADELYN

Side by side, we rest our arms on the concrete ledge looking out over the city.

“ It's beautiful,” I whisper.

He's quiet. Every now and then, he would cup his hands and splash water on my face. I'd do same and we would end up cracking up like teenage lovers.

We watch the city in silence for what seems like forever. It was beautiful staring down at the entire city, but having Jason by my side made it more euphoric.

“ Getting cold?” he broke the silence, and patted my already saturated hair which can't absorb another drop of water.

“ No, I'm doing just fine,” I return..

I know he's watching me, but I don't turn to ask why. Five minutes now, and all Jason has eyes for, is me.

“ You might as well tell me what's running through that mind of yours, rather than staring at me in that manner.”

He doesn't waste any more time, seems like I grant him the permit to. “ I'm wondering how your lips would taste in mine right now, wife.”
