The thought had crossed his mind on many an occasion.
And now as he was lost in her eyes one more time, he saw it all too clearly. That had not yet made love, but he could see it in her crystal blue eyes and he could smell it in her silky blonde hair. The silhouette of her form dancing in the candlelight only served to quicken his pulse and increase his longing for her. She laughed that electric laugh that ran through his soul and lifted his heart to his throat. She removed a wisp of hair from her eyes and sipped gently on her glass of wine and he told her that she was beautiful. She blushed, only slightly, but just enough to bring out the undertones of her smooth and perfect skin.
He could feel it. Tonight was the night.
