The sounds of nature circled around you as you sat on the bench waiting for his arrival. The moonlight breaking through the clouds glistened on the walkway as he walked up.

The alluring smile that appeared when he stood before you for the very first time. The feeling that encapsulated you when you saw his hand reach out for yours, and you realized chivalry was still alive.

The moment he reached over to place your napkin in your lap and you momentarily filled yourself with his scent. The conversation that ensued and the mind-blowing, tingling feeling that made residence within you as you watched his sultry lips move with each word. The seductive laughter from each of you throughout the night. The moment when your eyes caught his as he looked at you.
