I really liked it. The ending and the way you had her describe what she would look like with pages of a magazine .

Thankyou. I often wonder if guys fantasize like that, in that I mean have imaginary encounters that are sweet and perfect and have no flaws, no reality really that interferes with the happiness of the dream.
I think that happens in some degree in the movie Rushmore. Max Fleischer is fifteen and in love with one of the teachers. He already has it in his mind they will simply live on love and mutual admiration until she talks to him in a graphic harsh way to bring him to his senses.
Speaking as a female who was very naive and innocent, the realities of relationships were a great shock to me at first, hard to accept.
Thankyou once more.

Well, as far as dream-like stuff, that is what I try to make my romance pieces. I only posted one yet.. "Get Ready, Set, Sigh" if you wanted to compare.
I only saw the last half of Rushmore and thought it was pretty weird.. I try to leave reality out of happy dreams of love .

Thankyou for that information. It is valuable for future stories.
I will certainly read your piece.
