"Say cheese!" March quickly exclaimed to Stelle, startling her. Before she could react, March had already snapped a picture on her poloriod. A bright flash and the sound of the new frozen memory being processed was all Stelle could hear and see.
March looked at the picture, waiting as it developed. You couldn't even make out the picture yet, but March was already satisfied. "You're sooooooo pretty, Starlight!" March said with playful affection. Taking Stelles' hand in her own and smiling brighter than a thousand suns at her.
"March, you can't keep doing that to me. One of these days, you're gonna give me a heart attack." Stelle lectured. She wasn't actually mad or annoyed, however. March just smiled more. "Aw~ don't worry, Stelle, a few pictures won't kill you." Stelle sighed and shook her head a bit.
The silence sat comfortably between the two young ladies. March watched as her new photo developed. It was like watching paint dry or grass grow. But March was entertained by this slow process. Her hand kept it's gentle holds on Stelles', who didn't care to pull her hand away. Marchs' thumb idly rubbed over Stelles' hand.
The silverettes' sun gold eyes followed the subtle movement. "You should smile more." March suddenly chimed. "Huh?" Stelles' gaze moved up to the cotton candy like eyes staring so cheerfully at her. "You should smile more!" March repeated, tugging Stelles' hand gently.
"You're really pretty. And you radiate so brightly when you smile! I love your smile. It's like diving into hot chocolate milk! So lovely and addicting!" March explained as she released Stelles' hand. Who was a bit disappointed from the lost of contact. Only for it to be replaced with surprise when Marchs' hands moved to hold her face.
"You're really.. really pretty, Stelle. And I wanna see your pretty smile more!" She tugged Stelles' face closer to hers. Stelle blushed, following as her face was pulled closer. The smell of strawberry cheese cake filled her nose. She didn't dare look away from March who kept a comfortable eye contact.
"Do you even know how pretty you are?" It was such a simple, innocent and gentle question. Stelle didn't know how to answer her. "Uh.." She stumbled. Not sure how to respond. March giggled quietly. Leaning her face in closer to Stelles'. Their lips made contact and March could taste the subtle sweetness of caramel chocolate candies.
Stelles' heart mind as well of exploded right then and there! But she didn't pull away... she kissed back, her lips gentle. Afraid to push too far too quickly. Reluctantly, they separated the kiss. March stared lovingly. "You're the prettiest girl in the world in my book..." She claimed. Stelle smiled.
"Oh yeah? Well, you're the cherry on top in my book..." She leaned her forehead against Marchs' enjoying the closeness. "Will you... be my girlfriend?" March asked sheepishly. Stelles' heart throbbed. She nodded quickly. "Yes.. I'll happily be your girlfriend." She said before kissing her new girlfriend.
