"Honey, I'm home" he called as he walked through the door, though he heard no reply. As he slipped off his shoes and wandered through the house he noticed her staring out the window distracted by an unknown object outside. Silently gliding up behind her he slid his hands round her waist, feeling her respond to him.

"I love you" he whispered in her ear, before kissing the side of her neck hoping for the very reaction he received.

"I love you too", she replied slipping her arms around his neck as she turned to face him. She knew that he loved her and that she loved him, but hearing those words made everyday special. Closing her eyes she leaned into kiss him, having her actions reciprocated by her husband.

Breaking apart and tightening his grip round her waist he picked her slightly off the floor and started to dance with her before handing her a bouquet of flowers he had clearly picked up on the way home from work.

Responding to him she asked "What's the occasion?", before searching for a vase.

"I need an occasion to spoil my wife?" He smiled at her "Besides, having you here, with me, is an occasion with in itself."

She smiled back knowing that life could not get much better.
