For KyraSteidel
Me and my boyfriend of a year, River, and I, were sitting outside having a picnic.
River always loved having these outings, ones in nature. I loved that about him, how he was connected to nature. I loved everything about him. I just loved him, but we haven't told eachother yet.
"Are the cookies good?" River asked.
I nodded. "They're delicious, did you make them?"
River nodded shyly. I knew automatically they were vegan cookies.
We finished eating and the sun was setting. River and I sat under a tree, watching the sun set and listening to birds chirp.
"Beautiful." River said.
"It is."
"There's a lot of beautiful things in the world. Nature, you, my mom." He chuckled.
I laughed and leaned into him. "You're so sweet."
We sat in comfortable silence, until River whispered.
"I love you, Kyra."
I looked up at his blue/green eyes sparkling in the moonlight.
"I love you, too, River."
