However long I’m here I’ll always feel you near
I can only hope that the fluttering of light behind my eyes means that the curtain ,that shades the window next to my face, has blown open because these pin-pricks of light are really hurting my eyes and it would be just like her to shine a flashlight in my face in the early hours of the morning to wake me up because for some foul reason she has jerked awake at 4:00 a.m.
Pulling the covers to my chin I roll over and snake an arm around her waist. I hear her sweet sigh, that one that tells me she’s still dreaming, and I nuzzle my face into her back, not only because I love her scent but because it blocks out the invading sun.
I wonder briefly why the curtain has blown open because I am quite sure that I shut the window last night, before she pounced on me and ruined my blouse.
Still struggling to go back to sleep I roll over again, to press my ass next to hers, and cover my face with my arm. I start to laugh, quietly, as she rolls over and pushes her arm in between my other arm and my breasts.
Resigned to not getting anymore sleep, I roll into her arms and kiss her forehead.
I have to work in two hours, but it could be an interesting morning after all.
Beautifully written and a mental visual tease! I hope this is nonfiction!
