Beauty Captured in the Lens
I find it calming clicking nature shots with my camera. The alluring green of the surrounding is beyond magnificent, it's almost heavenly. The stupendous view of various colourful flowers all around just adds to the already existing beauty.
However, the only beauty that I've captured so far on my lens is the one wearing a plain white tee with skinny light blue jeans paired with black sneakers.
To others it's just an ordinary look but to me it's absolutely stunning. It's because she makes even the simplest of things breathtakingly beautiful.
Her enchanting smile, sweet melodic laugh and captivating brown eyes are beyond sensational and as I stare at her completely awe-stricken, I contemplate on telling her how much she means to me, though I'm seriously terrified that this would cost me my friendship not just with her but also with my buddy whose like a brother to me.
And although there has been some attraction between me and her, both of us have never actually admitted to anything. I only wish my friend had found another girl to have a massive crush on.
"Hey!" She calls out to me, waking me up from my trance.
"You missed a spot here." She says teasingly pointing it out to a row of wild yellow flowers. I half smile and nod at her knowing the fact that if she checks out my camera, she'll know that half of the pictures taken here are of her.
"He'll get it. After all he's the expert."
My buddy says in an obvious tone.
"Meanwhile let's play truth or dare since I'm really bored."
"Okay, I'll start by asking a question to our skilled photographer here, cause I know he won't be choosing dare anytime soon. So, um.... Have you ever sacrificed anything for your best friend?"
Her question catches me off-guard and I stare at her with an unfazed expression on the outside but definitely stunned on the inside.
I take a moment to think and answer with a single yes.
"Okay, so what did you actually sacrifice?". She curiously asks.
"You forgot, you can ask only one question per round and apparently it's my turn to take the lead but I got to excuse myself from the game for now atleast." I say holding up my camera.
"Ugh, fine." She says and they both continue with the game.
If only they knew the pain that I'm carrying with me, I think to myself clearly having lost the mood for clicking any pictures until I hear my buddy say, "Alright, since you've chosen a dare, I dare you to kiss me."
I look at him with a frown on my face and what happens next leaves me in utter disbelief is when she chuckles and leans over to kiss him.
