THE STORM

They were together in the house, just the two of them
It was a cold, dark, stormy night
The storm had come quickly and each time the thunder boomed, 
he watched her jump
She looked across the room and admired his strong appearance
and wished that he would take her in his arms,
comfort her and protect her from the storm
Suddenly with a pop, the power went out...
she screamed....
He raced to the sofa where she was cowering
He didn't hesitate to pull her into his arms
He knew this was a forbidden union 
and expected her to pull back
He was surprised when she didn't resist 
but instead clung to him
The storm raged on.....
They knew it was wrong...
Their families would never understand...
So consumed were they in their fear that they didn't hear the door open...
just a faint click of a camera.....
