Shades of Midnight
“The sun shone, on occasion, but every now and then clouds blocked the sunshine and the air grew cooler.
Eve was more beautiful than usual today. She wore a calico dress that was a lovely shade of blue, not too dark, not too pale. She'd rummaged in her wardrobe for much too long, sifting through dark and drab dresses to find this one. He had felt a touch of impatience, then, but she was definitely worth the wait.
That chore done, she'd then spent longer than usual fiddling with her hair, which w...as pinned atop her head as usual but sported a number of soft curls around her face. Some of those curls had been there when they'd left the house, others had been added by the occasional gust of wind. He preferred to see those honey strands loose and spread across a pillow, but still... the hint of wildness was charming.
Her shawl was cream-colored and fine, probably not warm enough for the day but lovely, and it did offer some protection from the cold.
He and Eve walked, arm in arm, up and down the main street of Plummerville.MoreLess
