alone in a public place

sitting on a bench, watching them

alone in a public place

her legs over his

his arm around her

their hands laced together

eyes seeing only each other

a quick kiss

soft words unheard by watchers

another quick kiss

she smiles

her head nods

and another quick kiss

more whispered words

a near-silent giggle

she turns into him

a much longer kiss

pull tighter together

then apart

hands still clasped

he stands

pulls her up, to him

another kiss

stroll down the path

so close together

they seemed joined into one

You have a way of telling a story that draws the reader in.
Some of my favs:
their hands laced together
soft words unheard by watchers
a near silent giggle

Very well done...I enjoyed!
