Oh, but blue is definitely on her mind, isn't it? Heh! Good for her and her beloved (in all senses of the word) friend!

Thanks, Larner. I'm only pleased that this worked. The prequel didn't work well and still needs a lot of work. More for my Summer of Writing Dangerously - LOL.

Love the idea of finding the color of her love's eyes everywhere she goes.

Thanks, Foxrafer. I think that someone in love will find reflections of that love in almost anything they look at. At least that's how it works in my little part of the imaginary world - LOL. I appreciate your review.

You incorporated the blue theme so well in this; it was subtle, but very present. A wonderful slice of this character's life.

Thank you, the blue underlying tone just is an ever present reminder of how she feels after that first true kiss. I remember those days and the power of that feeling - walking on air...

That's lovely - and how nice that, from the earlier drabble, we know he's feeling happy about this turn of events as well!

engarian July 19 2011, 09:22:12 UTC

Oh, very good! Not everyone caught up with the other drabble being a continuation of this tale. I'm having fun exploring her life during my Summer of Writing Dangerously.

This was quite lovely - and very easy to get caught by her mood!

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, I remember feeling like that. Unfortunately, my love did not have eyes of sapphire. Thanks for reading and reviewing, it means a lot to me.
