"I don't have to tell you

What this is all about"

Proof again that we both think alike. After two weeks, I found myself face to face with you. Somehow we both felt the need to return to the same place where it happened. Just looking at you I could tell that it was not surprise to you that I would be there. We are here for the same reason but what was going to happen was anyone's guess.

"Cause baby half the fun

Is in figuring it all out"

I knew what I wanted to do. Over the roller coaster of the past weeks, I had come up with my decision. Now if you would let me tell you what I wanted to, it would be a surprise. I had so much to tell you; I had rehearsed it over and over in my mind. As for what you were going to do, I had no clue but from your body language, it was not good.

"So why you gotta ask me

What I'm doing now"

You actually questioned my reason for coming - like you did not already know. Your voice was cold, too cold. I was starting to wonder how you were feeling. You had all your emotions under tight control. Your face was a mask of indifference as you spoke. Everything about you was restrained, controlled.

"Cause I don't like to question

What I still haven't found"

Your indifferent attitude was causing me to start doubting myself. I did not doubt my feelings - I do not think those could ever change. I doubted my choice to see you and do what I wanted to. I was questioning our future. "Our." I thought that we were not two separate people but somehow one unit.

"So tell me how we're gonna get there

It's hard to even try"

After staring me down for an eternity, you finally wet your lips and started to speak again. You didn't exactly speak though. I was more like barking insults at me. You seemed to cover everything you knew about me and somehow made it all sound bad. You even cursed the day I was born. You condemned me for being born a third-class warrior. It made me wonder by your tone of voice and inflection if you were cursing me for being that much lower than you or cursing the class system for making me so.

"But if we move together

We'll end up on the same side"

Somehow I agree with you on that. I could not help what class I was born to. You started saying that if we were still on our home-world, we would never have met. I was too low for you to be with. I really wanted to cut in and remind you that we were no longer there and that it was you who kissed me first. I help my tongue for a moment though. In that time, you raised your voice and gradually started yelling at me. You were so intense. I lost your words and their meaning as I watched you.

"If you could know what I'm feeling

Would you run and where would you go"

When you first came to Earth, your intensity and passion intimidated me. At times, it downright scared me. Now I find myself drawn to it like a moth to the flame - and a flame you had become. I watched transfixed as your verbal assault on me escalates. You may have done it to threaten me but I found that it only made me want you more. You started to move towards me and I moved towards you.

"If you want to see what I'm thinking

Then just turn on the lights and you'll know"

You stopped talking when we were just inches from each other. After taking a few deep breaths, you asked me what I had to say for myself. At that point, I doubt I could have formed a coherent thought to put into words. At that moment I knew that words were insufficient to portray what I had to say to you. I grabbed your head in my hands and pulled you in for a kiss.

"So don't turn off the lights

I don't want to be in the dark tonight"

I put all my emotions that I had felt in the previous two weeks into that kiss. I showed you my shock, my fear, my shame and guilt, and more than anything, I showed you my love. When I pulled back, I looked at you to see how you were going to react.

"Cause I can't read your mind

I need to know if what I'm doing is right"

I hoped that my form of apology would be accepted. You wiped your mouth with the back of your hand as you stared right into my eyes. You then slapped me with that same hand saying that it was for running away. It was not a hard slap but it still stung - emotionally more than physically. When I did not turn my head back to look you in the eye, you took my face in your hands and pulled it down to yours. To my surprise, you kissed me. When we finally ended the joining of our mouths, we both had tears in our eyes. I have never seen so much love in your eyes before. I could have stared into their depths forever and from the way you were looking at me, I believe that you would have let me.

"So don't turn off the lights…"
