The most romantic dream

I am not sure if I was the man or woman in this dream because the couple really seemed as one.

They were cozy and cuddling. The man had his arm around the woman's shoulder as they sat in a restaurant booth. She touched the side of his head and brushed his hair with her hand. He brings her finger to his lips. She brushes his lips lightly with her long thin finger. He can't resist and leans in for a kiss.

"No, not here," she says.

"I can't help it," and he continues the kiss.

Her lips respond and she kisses him back.

"You kissed me back," he says.

"I couldn't help it," she smiles.

He leans back and closes his eyes in bliss. When the woman asks if he is falling asleep he remarks, "I've died and gone to heaven."
