Challenge 78: Goosebumps

She wasn't even aware she was doing it. 

Hizashi was certain the lady he was in love with hadn't the faintest idea of how she affected him when she sang. It hurt his heart - in a good way -- and it made him tremble. He sat in the booth and listened, tucking a wayward strand of blond hair behind his ear. His green eyes were dreamy behind his glasses and he was thoroughly enjoying himself. Little bumps rippled along his arms and down his spine as her voice rose in the refrain of the song he loved. 

What Elly knew was that she was singing for <i>him</i>, the most important man in her life, and it made her want to do her very best. She didn't think she was that great, but he seemed to enjoy what little skill she had. When she looked over and saw him sitting there so happily her heart beat faster. Her boyfriend was so adorable he damn near broke her heart, biting his lower lip with his spiralled pupils hazy with pleasure. He twined a lock of golden hair around his finger and smiled so wistfully she shivered.
