He watches her from across the room
Even with all these people around
She is the only one he sees
The only one that matters
She glides across the room
So elegant
So perfect in all her movements
It's almost like the rest of the room is grey and blurred from his vision
And she has a spotlight focused only on her
Everything about her is as it should be
Her make-up is perfect
Not too much, not too little
Just the right amount of everything
And the dress
The dress is stunning on her
She couldn't have picked a better dress
Even from where he stands
Across trhe room
He can see how it brings out her eyes
He walks around the room
He needs to get closer
Never takes his eyes off her
Never losing sight of her beauty
She laughs
He is close enough to hear now
HEr voice is enticing
It lures him closer
He can smell her perfume now
Such a sweet scent
He recognizes it immediately
His favorite
How did she know
It's like she put it on just for him
He feels himself get aroused
He tries to ignore it
He can't act on it now
He has to control himself
She turns and heads for the terrace
Pulling out a cigarette as she gets closer
He can see her through the glass doors
She can't seem to find a light
Now's his chance to speak to her
To get closer to her
He shows up behind her and offers her a light
Perfect timing as usual
He tells her he's been watching her all night
He smokes a cigarette with her
They talk all night
She begins to trust him
Her trust in him grows as the glasses of wine disappear
By the end of the night he has to drive her home
He takes her to her door
She is too drunk to make it upstairs alone
She invites him up with her
He hesitates
She grabs his hand
He accepts her invitation
he almost doesn't want to go
But he knows he has to
After all, she's too drunk to make it upstairs alone
Or at least that's what he keeps telling himself
He opens her door and helps her into her room
She pulls him to the bed with her
She is too drunk to fuck
She passes out from too much alcohol in her system
So he lays with her
Silently
Thinking about what he knows he must do
He waits until he is sure she is asleep
He decides against it
He can't
He slowly gets off the bed
Making sure not to wake her up
He starts to head for the door
He has to leave
Now
Almost to the door
He stops and looks back at her
He can't leave yet
He still has something he has to do
He slowly walks back to the bed
He doesn't want to
But he knows he has to
He sits next to her on the bed
He leans down and kisses her cheek
One last kiss
He makes it last
The silencer covers the sound of the shot
She is dead before his lips seperate from her cheek
