He wondered when it would stop. Her eyelids fluttered closed, a content smile settling itself on her face. Mirroring his, he knew. He reached across the bed, entwining their fingers. She shuffled closer, bringing his fingers to her lips before snuggling with it at her neck.
He held her close, and her breaths - tickling his collarbone - sent waves of comfort and serenity washing over him.
Her amethyst eyes, half-opened half-dreaming, encompassed him in their warmth and he wondered again when it might stop. In all their time together, there was never a moment when he didn't wish to be bathed in the warmth of her being.
He stared at her, wistfully, with eyes blazing of youth. Her lips quirked up slightly and she moved herself up to reach his eyes with her lips. And then, despite her fatigue and obvious tiredness, her eyes opened wider, mirroring his fire.
They lay there, eyes wide open, in the dark hours of the night. All fatigue and stress leaving them. Phones and alarms and responsibilities forgotten on the bedside table behind photo frames and pictures - the glimpses, flashes of their life.
They lay content, crystal blue eyes sparkling, reflected in wide amethyst orbs.
"Richard," she whispered.
It did more than any amount of 'I love you' s or declarations of love could.
"Rae," he answered.
She responded by snuggling even closer, curling herself against and around him.
He wrapped his arms around her, strong as the first time and he thought it didn't need to stop making his heart grow wings and flutter against his chest.
I'd love to hear everyone's opinions on this. :) Thanks for reading :)
