2182 Years are quiet
Santa Monica Avenue extends from the bustling downtown of Los Angeles to Venice, and leads west to Malibu. The endless avenue continues to stretch forward in sight, and soon disappears into the thick night, with no end at all, as if you can't reach the end even if you walk to the forever.
But Hugo and Charlize slowly moved forward on the avenue, reflecting the sea breeze, bathing in the moonlight, and enjoying a rare moment of peace. At this moment, it seemed that there were only the two of them in the world - this was simply impossible for them. It was rare that the paparazzi went to chase the Oscar Night carnival party tonight, leaving behind this moment of tranquility.
Hugo held Charlize's right hand tightly, and could feel the faint temperature and a little warm sweat in his palm, which seemed not romantic at all. However, Hugo felt the sense of reality like never before, the realism that he had never felt since 199.
Listening quietly to the sound of his heart beating, as if he could vaguely hear the sound of her heart beating in the sea breeze. The faint but powerful sounds fit together, just like the most wonderful symphony in the world. He could be very sure that at this moment, he was real, she was real, and they were real.
Looking at the infinitely extended road in front of him, Hugo wanted to keep going with Charlize like this and reach the end of his life. The indescribable impulse in his mind blurted out, "Do you think we will get married tomorrow?"
Charlize turned his head to look at Hugo in surprise, and was stunned, because Hugo's tone was too ordinary, as normal and simple as saying, "I heard that it will rain on Malibu every day." This made Charlize doubt whether she had misunderstood, so she also directly expressed her thoughts, "So, are you proposing?"
The smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth gently outlined, and then it bloomed, just like an orchid blooming in the middle of the night. "Yes, I'm proposing." Hugo turned his head, and then saw that Charlize's center of gravity was completely unstable, so he fell down. He quickly stretched out his hands, hugged Charlize, and hugged her tightly in his arms.
Charlize felt a sudden increase in his heart and was completely at a loss. Then she heard Hugo's voice with a hint of joking, "Why, are you expressing a positive answer in this way of throwing into the arms? It's really special."
One sentence made Charlize's cheeks slightly hot. He struggled to stand up, raised his hand and punched Hugo in the chest, "Who said it! Your way of proposing is special. Who would just say 'Do you want to get married' like this? It's inexplicable!"
Hugo spread his hands and said he was helpless, "Then what else do you want? Flowers, champagne, candlelight supper, violin playing, kneeling on one knee, diamond ring, and it's better that some relatives and friends are cheering around?"
When Charlize heard Hugo's description, he thought about it and burst out laughing. He felt so stingy just by fantasizing about the scene, as if all goose bumps were rising all over his body. But when he looked up and saw Hugo's smile-like expression, Charlize felt a little unhappy. Just as he agreed to Hugo like this, it was really too cheap. No one here decided on the marriage matters just like discussing the dinner menu!
Charlize thought for a while and raised his head proudly, "Seeing that you are so insincere, I'll consider it again."
"Don't think about it anymore, don't you know I'm very popular?" Hugo's face and eyes bloomed brightly.
Charlize looked up and down with a picky look on his face and said, as if he was evaluating how much cheese the sheep could exchange for. "You don't know, am I very popular too? So, you can at least show a little sincerity." After that, Charlize wanted to shake off Hugo's hand and strode forward, but after taking a step, he found that Hugo did not let go at all, but was still holding it closer and closer.
As soon as Charlize turned around, he was pulled hard by Hugo, and his entire center of gravity fell into Hugo's arms unsteadily. The unique aura of Hugo surrounded her in an instant. She raised her head in a hurry and saw Hugo's eyes like stars with a hint of smugness and cunning, "Do you think I will let go easily? I said, if I hold it tightly, I won't let go."
These words made Charlize's cheeks turn red, and he could only bury his head in Hugo's chest, and then listen to the calm and powerful heartbeat.
Hugo still held Charlize's right hand tightly, then slid his other hand to Charlize's waist, and he started dancing slowly with her. As we all know, Hugo is a dancer, and his dance steps are definitely terrible, not to mention that without any accompaniment at this time, Hugo's dance steps have no arrangement at all, which is extremely bad.
Charlize didn't understand why Hugo suddenly started to circle in circles in slow dance steps. Just as she was about to look up and ask what was going on, she heard a warm voice that was as warm as the sunrise at 6 o'clock in the morning, humming in a low voice.
"I can always see you inadvertently many qualities that I have never seen before. Fish swimming, birds flying, life road is long and broad, I am curious about the reason; one day, you will understand how important you are to me. I can always see you inadvertently many qualities that I have never seen before."
This is "anonymous (no.name), this is the secret love song he wrote to her, this is the secret code between them. Charlize's heart began to tremble gently in an instant, and the warmth in his eyes surged uncontrollably. This is the first time Hugo sang this song in front of her - the real first time. The two of them had discussed this song, but every time Hugo seemed a little shy and restrained, and he was never willing to sing it live, or even not even willing to listen to the record. But tonight, Hugo sang this song softly for the first time, and in her ears, it was as melodious and moving as if it were serenades.
"Whenever I want to tell you how I feel, heaven whispers, heavy rain is majestic, the sky is dark, no one can defeat it; I want to speak, but I can't, my soul is stiff, and it will be like this every time I want to tell you how I feel."
Charlize's tears fell down like this. She could hear Hugo was a little nervous, and even a hint of trembling and shyness in his voice. The beauty of the simplicity to the extreme easily defeated all her defenses. The hot tears penetrated into Hugo's shirt and fell into his heart.
"So, listener, if you love someone too, you must stay away from it, because once you can't see that person, you will fall..." Hugo's voice suddenly paused. Charlize could feel the hot gaze that fell on his shoulders without looking up. She could even feel her soul trembling slightly, because she was falling, slowly falling from a height of thousands of feet, and then fall into the amber abyss, constantly falling, and then falling, "Because I fell..."
Hugo's voice was trembling slightly, with a hint of youth and a hint of tension. The pure innocent heart slowly bloomed in the night like a flash of cereus. "Fallen deeply in love, love; fall deeply in love, love."
Charlize could feel Hugo spinning awkwardly, and the extremely simple dance steps were still stumbled, but she looked at Hugo's careful avoiding stepping on her own steps, her muscles were tensed, and she could even feel the sweat coming out of his back. Her inner sensation jumped like this, following Hugo's world in the tide. The extremely simple beauty made her unable to help but close her eyes, listen carefully to the beautiful melody, and then... her heartbeats again. In this way, she slowly fell into the love river called Hugo, slowly and deeply.
Finally, Hugo's soft lips gently pressed on Charlize's lips, and the beautiful voice disappeared into the warmth between the lips and teeth. The afterglow of the singing quietly extended from the ears to the mind, gently and slowly echoing, but the afterglow was profound, making the soul begin to tremble gently. The familiar licorice aura surrounded the two of them in an instant. Charlize couldn't help but close his eyes and raised his hand to put Hugo's neck.
At this moment, there were only two of them left in the world. The stars all over the sky were like rainstorms, illuminating the whole world. The stars jumped gently on the skin, and the colorful late night outlined a beautiful picture. Even the aurora was not enough to describe one ten thousandth of the moment.
The kiss was so short, but so affectionate. The tenderness and passion between the lingering lips and tongue collided violently. The sweetness of the tip of the tongue was so intoxicating that it made Charlize lost in that throbbing, as if he had entered a world made of marshmallows, colorful and wonderful. Slowly, the softness on his lips left, Charlize slowly opened his eyes, and through the hazy water light, she saw the man in front of her, the man she loved.
At this time, Hugo was like a young boy, at a loss, and stood there in a bit of regret. His rosy lips still had a hint of happiness. Hugo looked down and saw a large piece of shirt on his chest wet, all of them were Charlize's tears. Then, under Charlize's intent gaze, Hugo's inner embarrassment and shyness began to surge. At this moment, Hugo felt so naked, as if he was standing in the middle of the world without any trace. Although Charlize had known that this song was dedicated to her, the feeling was different. He was still unwilling to show his heart during that period to her nakedly.
Hugo felt Charlize's hot and hot eyes, which made him even more and more cramped. He walked forward in a hurry, but after taking a step, he found that he was still holding Charlize's hand tightly. Hugo tried to break free, but this time it was Charlize's tight holding, which made Hugo stand in place with some embarrassment.
Looking at Hugo like this, Charlize's smile gently outlined, and she said nothing, because she was a little shy and embarrassed, and she didn't want any sound to break the tranquility of the moment. So Charlize also took a step and walked to Hugo's side. Then the two of them clasped their fingers and walked side by side, and once again walked lonely and silently along the road, as if the episode just now had never happened.
The road unfolds under the feet, and the quiet atmosphere settles the night and the moonlight. The tranquility of the world together firmly surrounds the two of them. The throbbing, germination, and trembling that surges in that moment quietly settles down at this moment, and replaces it with a kind of peace. In this world wrapped in shady curtains, there is only the peace of the two of them firmly moving forward. Perhaps, no one knows where the end of the road is, but there is unprecedented peace and firmness in the heart. As long as we accompany each other, the belief that this road can continue to move forward endlessly, blooming slowly in the air, like a delicate and eccentric cereal.
Neither Hugo nor Charlize spoke, but just quietly enjoyed the tacit understanding. Hugo was a little annoyed. He was thinking about what way to try to mention this matter again next time. Then, without warning, Charlize's voice penetrated the night and slowly rang, "Hugo, do you think we will get married tomorrow?"
This caught Hugo off guard, and he was stunned and stopped. Charlize continued to walk forward, and then found Hugo standing there. She turned around and looked at Hugo generously, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.
After pausing for about a second, the smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth suddenly became outlined, and the eyes were flashing like millions of stars. Then he continued to take steps forward. Charlize quickly followed and glanced at Hugo uneasy, but he never got the answer, and his inner restlessness could not be calmed down. At this moment, she finally understood Hugo's mood when he confessed just now.
"Okay." Hugo's voice sounded softly, so firm in the raging sea breeze.
Charlize was stunned for a moment, then the smile on the corner of his mouth began to outline, and the steps under her feet became lighter. She whispered, "Okay."
The road covered by the night slowly winded forward as the two of them walked towards the unknown and distant future. After a long time, Hugo's voice sounded again, "By the way, Rick mentioned to me that day, 'Harry Potter' sent me an invitation to cooperate."
"'Harry Potter'? Who did you play? Ruber Hager?"
"Haha, that's a good idea. But unfortunately, they invited me to play the man who can't name it."
"Oh? Voldemort? This is an interesting invitation. Did they see the evil personality in your body?"
"Maybe...it's also possible that they saw the possibility of my schizophrenia."
"Ha ha ha ha."
"Oh, by the way, Joe asked me that day, if you plan to shoot a sequel to "Before Sunrise", what do you think? Let's work together on the script?"
"Sequel? Are you sure?"
"Not all sequels are bad, maybe we can change that..."
"Do you have any ideas?"
“What about the idea ‘before sunset’?”
The moonlight is like water, slowly falling, ordinary and simple, calm and unstoppable, no magnificent, no vows, no ups and downs... But the years are quiet and peaceful.
