She wanted to say yes, to lift a hand to his cheek and smile.

She lifted a hand to his cheek in turn.

She closed the space between them and lifted her hand to his cheek.

I wanted desperately to move, to lift a hand to my cheek, but the body betrayed me.

She lifted a hand to his cheek as they moved together.

She smiled once more and lifted a hand to his stark cheek.

Still holding the statue, she lifted her free hand to his cheek.

She lifted one hand to her cheek, feeling his against hers.

Her face softened before she lifted a hand to his cheek.

As the music swelled and faded, she lifted his hand to her cheek.
