Sunrays on her face...Sunbeams on his Leather

Two friends, sat in silence, shoulder to shoulder... 
Atmosphere tells a story neither will tell. Fingers trace lazily, speaking a language their lips are yet to learn... 
...Notebook left open, pen rolled away; writing unfinished... 
...Her leg settled against his; tights against jeans. Cotton against leather as they lean in, absent-mindedly resting on one another... 
...Blades of grass tickle...wind carresses... 
...He leaps up, retraces his steps...her attention returns to her notebook, fingers find the discarded pen. 
Romance dissolves. Normality re-emerges. 
Friends again. 
Her eyes abandon the page, find him metres away, sunrays dancing around him. They duck behind her book as he glances over; a retreat. 
Even magic wears off in time. 
Their moment, however, will prove harder to erase...
