After the bar closed...
In the car They talked a long time. They talked of Their paths in romance. They talked of Her dating His friend. They talked of Her sister being in love with Him. They talked of secret crushes never being shared. And it was a sad talk.
And later They danced at the after-hours party. It was suppossed to be a joke because of the cheesey music playing. But She danced closer to Him than He expected. So He went outside.
Too much history with friends and family and paths of romance.
So when He left They hugged as They always do. Except this time She squeezed a little tighter and held on much much longer. He turned His head into Her and His lips barely brushed Her neck on the way through.
And it was all just a goodbye because It could never be. A cool breeze on a late summer night and a lonely drive home.
