Thank you Madz for encouraging me to post this.

The Perfect Life <3
As I stood there, gazing into the depths of the lake, captured by it's remarkable beauty & serenity, a pair of muscular arms caught me from behind. I didn't have to turn around to know who that person was. I'd know him with my eyes closed. We stood there for some time completely silent & still. Finally he broke the silence, "are you still mad at me for leaving you there?" he asked, worry seeming a bit too obvious in his voice. "No" I replies in just a syllable, I knew how much he hated that. "Then why are you so silent?" he asked me. "No particular reason" I said. "Something must be wrong?" he asked me. "No" I said, I was so not done having fun. "Sharon will you please speak in more than just a syllable. You know how much I hate that!" he said getting a bit irritated. "yeah" I said laughing internally. "Sharon!!!!" he said, he sounded angry now. I kept silent this time. Finally he had had it with my little game, he made me turn around & look into his eyes. Ugh, he knew that would render me helpless. "are you still mad at me Sharon?" he asked. I had to give in, how can I lie looking into those beautiful eyes. I wrapped my arms around him & said "what do you think?". I could sense the smile playing on his lips. He wrapped his arms around me as well & we stood that way for sometime.
We were so perfect for each other. It was like we were made to be with each other, destined rather. His arms came so perfectly around my waist. And those eyes!! I could just keep on staring at them for infinity. He was the best thing that ever happened to me. Sometimes it feels like I don't deserve him, he is way too good for me. The dream of any girl. He could have gotten a girl much better than me. But then of all the people why did he chose me? This question bugged me quite a lot. And this wasn't the first time I'd been thinking about this. I wasn't sure if I was being even half as good as he was being to me. Was I even good enough for him. I decided to ask him.
"Swayam?" I said still not leaving him. "hmm?" he replied. "Can I ask you something?" I asked, sounding a little tensed. "of course" he replied sounding very cheerful. "Have you.. Have you ever regretted marrying me? I mean in the sense that maybe you could have gotten someone way better than me!" I asked still feeling tensed.
He broke the hug & cupped my face in his hands & looked into my eyes for sometime. I never understood why he liked that so much. I mean looking into his eyes was a completely different story, but mine? Why? Finally he spoke "Sharon, don't you ever think of it like that. I couldn't have possibly imagined to get someone better than you. You are the only person I ever loved Sharon & it will remain that way forever." he said still locking his gaze. "But what's so special about me?" I asked quite genuinely. "What isn't special about you Sharon?! The way you look into my eyes & make me forget everything I was doing, the way you entwine your fingers with mine while walking on a lonely street, the way your eyes light up when you see that I've gotten something for you, the way you squeal in delight at the smallest of things, the way you wrap your arms around me & make me feel complete, the way you blush bright red like you are doing now, the way you take care of the smallest of my interests, the way you smile when I say how much I love you. And this us just a part of the never ending list. You are the most special girl I've come across Sharon. Don't you ever forget that!" he said finishing by pulling me closer.
My eyes had filled up already. I couldn't believe how he noticed all the little things. He thought I was special, rather, he made me feel special. I couldn't have been happier than I was. I just kept looking into his deep brown eyes as he gazed at my bug green ones. Suddenly he started coming closer & closer. Our lips were inches apart, I could feel his hot breath on my skin. I closed my eyes ready to give in when suddenly my stupid phone rang. If, at that point of time, I knew the person who had invented mobile phones I would have marched into his house & struck a dagger right through his heart. An awkward silence filled between us as I took my phone from the table beside, I picked it up only to hear a recorded message of the services. Perfect, I had lost a beautiful moment to hear some retarded people telling to me select a caller-tune, just perfect. I cut the call & switched off my phone.
I turned to him to find him staring at me with a little smile on his lips. "What?" I asked. "Just smiling at what's going on in your mind!" he said, his smile getting wider. "Oh really! And how do you know what's going on in my mind?" I asked smiling myself now. "Because you my dear, are my wife!" he said wrapping his hands around my waist. "In that case,can you tell me what's going on in my mind?" I asked placing my hands on his chest. "You were silently cursing your mobile services & the person who discovered mobile phones." he said matter of faclty. Whoa, okay I wouldn't say I hadn't expected it, but I had expected him only to have a vague idea, but he said the whole thing. He smiled even more seeing the look of shock in my face. He came closer to me & whispered in my ears "The look on your face tells me that I'm right" and slowly took his face away after saying so. I just smiled & looked down. He took one hand away from my waist, still holding me firmly with the one hand & lifting my chin up with the other. "I think we have some unfinished business to finish" he said softly. I flushed a bright shade of Red. He came closer & closer until there was no distance between us, not even a gap enough for air to pass. Finally he crushed his lips against mine with utmost passion. Time stood still for us. I begged the moment never to end but he broke apart to catch his breath. He put his forehead against mine & smiled looking right into my eyes. I knew my life couldn't get any better.
The End
Did the ending feel a bit abrupt. I felt so too, but I couldn't think of anything better. Sorry about that
