"You know that I'm fifteen years younger than you right?" he asked.
She looked at him, smiling, trying not to laugh.
"You know that I'm fifteen years older than you, right?"
They both giggled.
"Fair enough," he said and they continue kissing.
It was a day like no other for him. He never thought that he would actually meet her. She was her favourite singer. He listened to all her songs. Bought all of her albums. She was, and still is, his muse. Some say it was starstruck, but it was completely different. It was true love. Until today she didn't know that he exist. But with some turn of events and sparks later, she was there lying close with him in her hotel bed, covered in a large white bedding.
When he heard that she will held a concert in where he live, his heart skipped a beat. He wanted to listen to her soothing voice directly. Be bought the ticket the moment it was on sale. Now, he was listening to that voice closer than anyone could ever have.
Until today, for the very first time of his young life, he has finally found love. And somehow, as he kissed her on her forehead while she was lying on his chest, listening to his heartbeat, he knew that she loved him too.
He smiled wider than ever before.
"This is the amazing thing that I've been longing for," he whispered to her ear.
She smiled, their eyes met.
"Everything is perfect now."
