I Love You, Daisy
A short fictional romance
“Come on, Rob! Dance with me!”
The petite brunette in a yellow dress laughed and twirled in the sunlight. Romantic music whispered the words Rob wanted to say to Daisy. “I love you.” But he couldn’t figure out how or when to say those magical words. He had never said them to anyone before, not even his parents.
But as he looked at Daisy trying so hard to get him to dance with her, he knew that she was the one his heart waited to find. How could he let her dance alone in a dress like that, and in front of so many people? This was their best friends’ wedding, for crying out loud!
Rob finally embraced his beautiful girlfriend. This was the first time he felt attractive in a suit. And having Daisy by his side made him feel like the luckiest man on the dance floor.
“Well, look at that. I finally got you to dance at a wedding,” Daisy giggled. “You clean up nice.”
“Thank you. Brett did a good job picking out the groomsmen’s suits,” Rob laughed. “You look gorgeous, Daisy. How did I get so lucky?”
“You and I have good matchmakers.”
Rob closed his eyes, pulled Daisy into his chest, and stroked her long wavy locks. Her flowery perfume awakened all his senses.
