He knew a moment's uncertainty as he stepped in -- there are more romantic venues for a first kiss. But all doubts resolve when he sets eyes on Pippa. This is the bar where they first met, after all, and the bar where they first danced. Only fitting that they also share their first kiss here.
When she looks up at him and speaks in that low, sweet tone, reaching out for her seems as natural as breathing. Sliding one arm around her shoulders, he slips his index finger under her chin, lightly stroking the tender skin.
"Hi, Pippa." His own voice is no louder than hers, a soft caress on the ears as his hand shifts to cup one side of her chin. "I hope you don't mind, but I've been thinking of only one thing for the past two days." Running his thumb gently over her slightly-parted lips, he leaves no doubt about what that one thing is.
She smiles and leans into his touch, blue eyes fairly glowing, and he dips his head to cover her mouth with his. Gently at first, then with deeper assurance, he explores the vibrant sweetness of her.
