Eyes

                Angelique knew she’d have to decide soon. Her indecision was hurting both her efforts as a queen candidate and her relationship with Randy. Which was the most important?

                They met in the park for lunch. It was a warm, sunny afternoon. She almost wished she didn’t have a lesson with Olivie later that afternoon.

                “Angelique.” Randy’s voice was barely more than a whisper.

                She looked up into his eyes, a blue that rivaled the color of the sky. As his eyes flickered closed and he lowered his mouth to hers, she made her choice. Yes, she still wanted to become queen. But she realized she wanted Randy more.
