This story is based off of this picture I've seen on Instagram. I'm OBSESSED with it. I don't know why. I see so much love and adoration in it. I wanted to bring it to life...
The roaring sounds of the city have died down. The hustle and bustle of car horns and pedestrians walking the street have come to a hush. 2AM in the city is a different life than that of the daytime. It's more contained, careful even.
It's mid August and there's a slight breeze in the air. The moon is cascading a beautiful light throughout the city, bouncing off the twinkling lights from buildings and other structures.
You are walking down the road clad in cut off jean shorts and a cropped band tee. Your white sneakers are dirty from the city streets but you didn't care. Your skin was tan, summer being your favorite season where you can bask in the sunlight and enjoy time outside.
"I don't want the night to end" you say as you walk hand in hand with him.
You look up at him and he's giving you a playful smirk. Austin was the boy you've been seeing for about a year. You guys have never said you were boyfriend/girlfriend but it was pretty obvious by the connection you both had that this was obviously more than just a fling.
He's wearing a grey t-shirt with his hair a little messy. His dark jeans matched his dark grey boots.
"It doesn't have to" he says as he stops. You jolt back and look around.
You look around. "What are you doing? Why'd you stop?"
Austin points to a bodega.
"I'll be right back. Stay here" he says and quickly jogs into the bodega.
You look around the street and it's empty for the exception of a couple Ubers dropping off drunk friends and bike riders on a mission.
A couple minutes later, Austin opens the door and walks out with his hand behind his back.
"Mademoiselle , I believe I found us the most expensive wine in all of France" Austin says, in a terrible French accent, holding out the bottle of cheap red wine to show you.
You laugh and grab it.
"I'm pretty sure the most expensive wine in all of France doesn't have a twist off" you say as you hold up the bottle and shake your head.
Austin laughs and takes your hand and you venture back down the street towards his apartment.
You are near Washington Square Park now. There are lights everywhere making the park light up with beauty.
You stop under the Washington arch and Austin pulls you close to him.
"I love spending time with you, you know that?" he says.
You nod, "I do too"
He kisses you deeply and smiles.
"What do you say we have a little bit of this now, huh?" you ask.
Austin nods.
You unscrew the cap and hold it up over your mouth. You start to pour and Austin pulls you in closer. His hand wrapping around the small of your back.
The red liquid dribbles down and Austin's mouth is hovering under your chin, catching liquid that may have missed your mouth. You're both smiling, trying not to giggle as you both messily drink the wine.
You finally couldn't take anymore and put the bottle down to your side.
You swallow and let out a laugh.
"I feel like a teenager again" you giggle.
Austin smiles and kisses you. You can taste the cabernet sauvignon on his lips.
Austin drops down to his knees and tilts his head back opening his mouth wide.
You laugh as you pour some more wine into his mouth. He finishes by wiping the back of his palm across his mouth.
"Can I tell you something?" Austin asks, standing up and taking the bottle from you.
You nod.
"You make life worth living"
You bite your lip nervously. No one has ever said that to you before. You never thought you could have an impact on someone like this.
"Really?" you ask in disbelief.
Austin nods.
"Yeah, you make me feel like I'm 18 and the world is my oyster. That I can do, say and have whatever I want. Being with you is like...always having the good things in life. I just....I love that...I love you, [Y/N]" he confesses.
You can feel yourself starting to get emotional. Before you could start crying, you pull him close and kiss him to show him you feel the same.
"I love you too, Austin" you say, cupping his cheek.
He smiles and looks down at the bottle of wine.
"Let's go back to my place and finish this, shall we?" he asks.
You giggle, "Yeah and maybe we can do it without clothes on" you gesture to both your wine stained clothing now.
Austin grabs your hand.
"You took the thought right out of my head" he smiles.
You both begin to run, feeling so carefree and most of all, so very in love.
Dear Lord. The way I fell to my knees. Goddamn dents on my floorboards. I fear for my life, I do. Mr. Galitzine ain’t gonna leave no survivors for sure. One stubble moment? Gagged. One stubble moment? Mind blank. One stubble moment? I have been HAD.
