I let my hands drop down to my stomach, my fingers curling around the small bump forming there. A sigh escaped from my lips as I closed my eyes and tilted my face towards the sky. I felt my hair slip past my cheek as a light breeze tickled it into dancing.
Blowing out a breath, I opened my eyes and allowed a small smile to emerge. I never thought I would be here, feeling these feelings. Why was I so scared before?Who knew I would come to love everything about him. His shy smile, that he always covered. The way that tinge of pink would spread across his cheeks when he was embarrassed. How he would look at me, as if his eyes pierced to my very core.
I giggled as I recalled his awkward kindness, how it endeared me to him and had me falling hard before I even realized what was happening to me. It took 4 long years and a dive of courage to finally figure out that I wanted him with me forever. Nothing can explain the way I felt as I finally pulled that blue feather out of my rucksack, as his eyes went as wide as saucers. Nor the way he picked me up seconds later, spinning me around as he confessed his love for me, burying his face into my chestnut hair.
Again I allowed a sigh to escape from my smiling lips, and I headed towards my small farmhouse, and the sliver haired cowboy calling to me.
