Harper couldn't help but keep her gaze fixed on Rachel, utterly transfixed by the radiant smile gracing her beloved's features. That crescent-shaped, moonlike smile that Harper had fallen so deeply in love with from the very beginning. It was a smile that emanated pure joy and contentment, one that made Harper's heart swell with adoration.
As they stood together by the railing, Harper's eyes sparkled with reverence, drinking in the sight of Rachel's captivating smile. This smile, this expression of pure happiness, was the very reason Harper wanted to give Rachel the world. Harper's motivation to see Rachel's smile blossom over and over again came from this smile.
Unable to resist any longer, Harper pulled Rachel close, gazing tenderly into those shining eyes. "Damn, Rach," she murmured, her voice thick with affection, before leaning in to capture those smiling lips in a deep, passionate kiss.
