[ IP ] How did this couple get to this point ?

Him 
 
 He remembers her silhouette across the fire escape as 
 He watched the sunset on a May evening 
 Her bright red lipstick when she turned the first time 
 And saw him 
 
 Her 
 
 She always had good days the days she cut her hair but that morning 
 She ’ d only cut her bangs 
 His hat perched on his head sweating with August heat when he 
 Finally Asked her 
 
 Them 
 
 They caught the last bus Christmas Eve 
 His hand on her ’ s 
 She mumbled slightly from red lips that she was cold 
 He put his arm around her as they settled in for the duration 
 The bus rumbled down the street towards Home
