The show's over. We've done the "Time Warp" and doubled over from audience responses. And now we go outside to wait for the cast to emerge. I know JJ and Taylor are right behind us, and we are surrounded by people, but the need overwhelms me, so I clumsily grasp at your hand, and we stumble as we get the fingers right.
So we walk hand in hand down 3rd street, and we smile goofily, because the good feeling just won't go away. I can feel it in my stomach and in my chest, the need to scream and dance and cry all at once because I'm with you. Happiness is overwhelming.
I know you're nervous because I can feel in in the way you move next to me. I squeeze your hand to let you know that it's okay. Down the street, we see a few more couples, and not of the conventional Kind. I smile for no reason, and look at you. Our eyes meet, and I try and pass to you every thought and feeling I have.
You seem to understand, becuase we both stop and turn to each other at the same time. I grab your other hand and we stand facing each other for a few moments. I let my head fall forward until our forheads meet, and just let the contact echo through my being.
Slowly, you release your hands from mine and slide your arms around my back. I lift my arms to rest on your shoulders and connect my hands behind your neck. Holding you, and being held by you, I feel perfect. I feel love as the most tangible thing in the universe.
