Just a little one-shot on a sweet moment of caskett during 4x23/5x01. Hope you like it!
Also, this is my 50th fanfiction...!
I rested my head on her chest and whispered the most obvious thing ever. "I can hear your heart."
Thump thump, thump thump, thump thump, thump thump, thump thump, thump thump, thump thump…
I looked at her and she smiled. I pressed my lips on hers, then a gave a lengthy kiss over her scar and rested my ear against her chest again. I closed my eyes to the touch of her fingers running through my hair, caressing my face. I take a deep breath, I feel like I'm slowly melting with these feelings I'm feeling. Four years, and it seems that she has always been here. Like she never had been away.
Her heart once stopped… and I saw it all, right in front of me. It was frightening and I'll always remember it. But she's here with me. Alive…
The way the pounding is so rhythmical, so in time… The way her heart beats inside her chest it's magical. The most beautiful sound I've ever heard. Except always for Alexis' first words, but that's in a different context. I mean on the lovers context. I know her heart is beating this fast because of me. Hearing and feeling her heart pounding against my ear is a sound I don't ever want to forget.
How come such a simple sound be so beautiful?
How can such human being be this beautiful as she is?
I sought for her hand that was messing my already messy hair. I kissed its inside and I laid down next to her. That was when she crawled even closer to me, resting her head on my chest.
"Is there a ticking bomb in here?" She said playfully, commenting on my heartbeat.
She was right. My heart seemed to be a ticking bomb, ready to go off at any second. I wrapped my arms around her and keep her tight to me. I don't want to lose her. In fact, I'm still not believing the fact that all of this really happened. That all of this is really happening. I don't want to close my eyes and wake up in the morning only to face my cold and empty bed, realizing that it was all a dream. The best of my dreams…
I kiss her upon the head and grasp her tighter, but with care enough not to hurt her. She sensed my (maybe unreasonable) fear and lifted up her head, looking at me, her lips drawing the curve of a smile, assuring me on a whisper. "I'm not going anywhere, silly." Then I felt upon my mouth the softest lips mine have ever met, on the sweetest and most meaningful kiss I've ever received. It reassured me that she wasn't going anywhere…
Maybe I wasn't yet sure if that was a dream or not, but either way, she was in my arms, sleeping over my chest. I caressed her hair and cheek and she fell asleep. That was when I saw therefore my eyes the gorgeousness of her peacefully sleeping. I let out a deep sigh, thinking that my heart would burst at any moment, having her in my arms. It's so much better than how I've dreamt of it. I close my eyes, being lulled by the rain drops falling outside, being embraced by her warmth and that cherry scent of her. But, whenever I felt I was close to sleep, I wide opened my eyes, just to make sure she was still there. And she was. Every time I opened my eyes. She was still peacefully sleeping in my arms, looking like she was having her first good night of sleep in ages.
So I closed my eyes and finally decided to surrender myself to sleep too, knowing that she was there for real, and that she was not going away. I was going to have a good night of sleep like I didn't have in ages as well.
Outside the rain ceased and the weather calmed down. Now, only the silence ruled the bedroom. The silence, our breathing and our hearts beating. All together as one…
I'm not gonna crawl for them, but reviews are always welcomed!
