I Don't Know What Else To Say

He looks over at her with a sweet smile. She smiles back. The night, and their date, is coming to an end. Both have been stalling ever since leaving the restaurant, with walks around the park and taking the long drive home. It has to end sometime, so here they are.

Brief words are exchanged, thanking each other for a wonderful time. There is a pause in the air, as man and woman wait for what they know comes next.

He steps in with his eyes closed. She leans in a little bit, but he rushes his face towards her. They kiss for a second.

"Good night," he says, a chipper glint in his eyes.

"Good night," she repeats, lowering her head.

Our couple leaves each other for their separate worlds. He to reflect on how well the evening went. And she to long for something more.
