One Night (edit #2)

[milo]

edit #1

huddling
getaway planned
town fireworks skipped
they head for the shore
to stroll arcades
like in childless days

hair forced into style
little dress over long legs
she kisses her boy goodbye
promises to win him
a small stuffed toy
leaves her phone home

they walk the dark night
a bit of the old carefree
love and lust jersey heat
girls eye him guys eye her
young and gorgeous
out late, but not
as late as expected

Now I see why you didn't understand the break on skipped. It needs to suggest at first that they could be skipping.

huddling
getaway planned, they skipped
the town fireworks


Of course, if I am reading it wonder what a "huddling getaway" is but that could just be me . . .
