Golden Moments
Disclaimer: I think Andrew Marlowe is doing a fine job without my help. ;)
Summary: Just a moment in time.
A/N: As always, this wouldn't be near as good without my buddy, Li. She catches all the crazy stuff that I'm too blind to see.
She awoke, feeling his body against hers. His front was pressed against her back, and his hand on the side of her waist. She smiled and moved her hand back a little, where it laid on his hip.
She loved how well they fit together, how they complemented each other so perfectly. His breath fluttered through the hair on her neck and she could've sworn she felt him press a light kiss there as well.
He shifted to snuggle a little closer, like that was possible. When he did so, she realized his other arm was under her pillow with hers and he held her hand. They were connected, touching in almost every way possible.
It was like a dream, but she knew now that it wasn't. It hadn't been for... several months now. She shifted back again, just to feel the slide of her skin against his.
"Are you okay?" he asked in a voice laden with sleep.
"I'm fine," she whispered, "More than, actually."
"Mmmkay." He kissed her shoulder and she was sure he had fallen back to sleep almost instantly.
She smiled, knowing what she said was true. She felt good. And safe. And that was something she'd hadn't felt in a long time.
