There was pause. In the moment, in reality, when Owen touched his forehead to hers. Green eyes scanned his face as he spoke, and Julianna tried to keep her breathing even as her heart pounded in her chest. The hand on the back of her neck still held her close; that tempting mouth of his still within reach.
It was the way he said her name, slightly out of breath from kissing. His tone low and heady. He was teasing her, but she didn’t care and she was absolutely positive that she could feel the movement of his lips forming words even though they weren’t touching.
“There will be other sunsets,” she replied, tilting her head and leaning in as if to kiss him again. She knew he was asking without having to ask. Knew all the ‘rules’ they were breaking carrying on like they were. Flirting, and hiding, and making out like horny teenagers. But she knew herself well enough to know that she wouldn’t stop at kissing him; that this moment could go farther, and perhaps, too far if she allowed it. If that were even possible.
Julianna brushed her lips against Owen’s, before dropping her head to his chest and settling against him the way she had before; she turned her face to the setting sun. “But I suppose I don’t want to miss my first Montana sunset,” she concluded, hoping that he understood that she wasn’t completely dismissing him or what was clearly brewing between them; just slowing it down.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
