4          As Aiden tried to calm himself, his thoughts returned to Ava.  He remembered the joy he felt when he opened the front door the night he met her, and saw her standing there with more daisies in hand, smiling beautifully.  They had talked and laughed for hours, and it was nearly 1 a.m. before she had gone home.  Smiling, he thought of their first kiss, only three short weeks after that day by the lake.  She was just about to leave his house after another long evening and her hand was already on the doorknob when Aiden uncontrollably grabbed her shoulder and whipped her around.  “Wait,” Aiden whispered to her, “don’t go yet.”

            “Aiden, it’s almost two in the morning, I think it’s time I left,” she said chuckling to herself.  Aiden reached up to stroke her face; her skin felt like silk underneath his fingertips.  She looked startled, but only for a fraction of a second, and then she smiled, and leaned close to him.  As she closed her eyes, he couldn’t help but think about how truly beautiful she was, both on the inside and out.  He leaned towards her and stroked her cheek, slipping a fallen piece of hair behind her ear.  When their lips met for the first time, Aiden felt a warm tingling wave wash over his entire body.  Her mouth was to perfect, every curve of her lips was wonderful.  He knew in that instant he would be with her forever.  He wasn’t sure how long the kiss lasted, time had seemed to escape him entirely for those few moments; all his energy was focused on Ava, focused on every curve and dip of her body.  When Ava finally broke the kiss Aiden was less than ready for it.  “Goodnight Aiden,” was all she said, but then again she didn’t have to say anything at all.  The smile on her face told him all he needed to know.
