I made you pull over tonight on our way home. We were on I75 and the music felt so good and my heart couldn't stop pounding. My eyes couldn't stop watering, I wanted to cry, but instead I asked you to dance.

Pull over.
Why?
Just pull over.
Are you okay?
I've never been better.

The car came to a stop by the side of the road. It was three in the morning. There was barely anyone on the road. I turned up the music, as loud as it could go, and pulled you close so that our noses were touching. Eskimo kisses in the late night hour never felt better. You smiled and I pulled you an inch closer so that our lips touched sending pulses of electricity through my body.

Let's go.
Go where?
Dancing.
Where?
You'll see.

I opened the car door and slid out of the passenger seat. You cautiously opened the car door and looked around at the dark and empty road. I swayed to the music in the middle of the road, feeling more free than ever. I sang to you my favorite verse and you moved slowly towards me. I could tell you were still uncomfortable standing on a road where cars go over seventy miles an hour. I pulled you into me and you began to sway to the music coming from the open car doors. The headlights shone a yellowish glow on us, and you picked up on the next verse, and whispered it into my ear, as our bodies moved together like one.

You're crazy.
I know.
I love it.
I know.
I love you.
I love you more.

You spun me around and I saw the oncoming car coming towards us. We continued to dance, I was almost mad a car would interrupt this moment, this beautiful, sensuous moment.

Come on.
Just a second longer.
It's been a second.
Just a few more.

The lights came closer, the car was speeding towards us, maybe containing a dad going home to his kids. A family heading home from a vacation. A lonely soul looking for love on the interstate. Nevertheless, it was a car barreling towards us. The headlights blinded me as I stared it down, and then I felt your arms around my waist pulling me, grabbing me, rescuing me from the lonely driver. We collapsed against the car, both breathing heavilly, hearts racing, and I couldn't stop smiling. You looked at me and smiled, what else could you do. You kissed me passionately, feverishly, lovingly, and for a good three minutes it was just us, the stars, the music, and the dark road around us, we were alone again. We finally pried ourselves away and finished the drive home, where we curled up in bed together, and I nestled my head into your chest and you held me like I was a lost child, and it felt like home except a thousand times better.

I love you.
I love you times ten.
I love you times one hundred.
I love you times nine hundred and ninety-nine.
I love you times three hundred thousand.
I love you times infinity and beyond.

You always knew that would end the game, but you always let me say it anyway. You kissed me on the forehead and said goodnight and sweet dreams. I kissed your chest. I kissed your neck. I hoped by osmosis, my love went through your skin, and with each kiss you felt it more and more. I hoped you felt my love in your blood for all of time. For infinity and beyond.
