*Moved from Adventures of the guests*
This just an idea with the Tom character loosely based on Coop (from 'Desire') and the era is the mid 1930's. I'm gonna try and tell the story through the memories of the two main characters - so if it gets really confusing I'm sorry - I usually get a bit too carried away..
p.s. if you don't like sappiness/cheesiness , start running.Now.

The train flew by noiselessly, at least to her it was silent - as was the constant blur of commotion taking place all around her. The world had blocked itself off in her mind; she had decided (almost unconsciously) that without him she wanted no part in this world...in this life.
Man: 'Scuse me miss, can I 'elp ya?
He was too late - she was already gone, retreating back into memories of things gone by...
And there she was again, sat leaning back on him, his warm breath on the back of her ear - constant- inhaling,exhaling,inhaling.His arms devotedly encircling her; as a young boy would hold a precious belonging, terrified someone would snatch it away;his eyes were closed, though the occasional flicker of their lids were enough to reassure her he was still present - still loving her. She reached for his tie (now loosened and at an angle - she herself had done this), noticing a small stain she began scratching at it gently as to remove it.
"Hey,hey - what you doing?"he was apparently now wide awake as he made a mock look of horror at her trying to clean his tie; she laughed lightly.
"Thomas Bradley! Look at the state of this tie! Why hasn't it been cleaned?!" she pointed to the minuscule stain and glared at him sarcastically.
"Why should I clean it? I've got my own personal scrub-lady... right here" he lent forward and kissed her before she could hit him.Eventually surfacing from the kiss she said, casually,
"Really, Tom you need some new ties - desperately - all of yours are covered in stains - I can tell what you've been eating for that whole week!"
"Hmph. Okay, so my ties have a slight weakness for ketchup,jam,..and,um, eggs,coffee,erm,gravy..." she smiled as-though thoroughly satisfied,"okay, well, food in general - but everyone's got to have a weakness...I've got one..."he tightened his hold around her and sighed exuberantly as if to prove his point.
"So have I - men with low tie hygiene..." she pulled him into a kiss by his tie and he began to laugh . The warm,strangely enjoyable feeling of him laughing into her mouth as they kissed; she missed it.
However, another memory seemed to cloud over this scene in her mind and suddenly she was remembering something else, another time, another place, but still with Tom...
