~The Love Between~

~Oneshot~

~Pezberry Story~

I hold her through the winter, as we sip on hot cocoa. As she read verses of a random book to me, with my blanket wrapped around her. She blushes everytime she come across a word she can't pronounce which is rarely ever. That's why I make sure I catch it when it happens. Her hands gently turn the page everytime she take a deep breath. It's a perfect pattern.

Every once in a while when she wants a sip you look up into me. With glowing eyes she asks me please. I slowly hold the cup up to her soft lips, she lets the warmth spread through her. I just peck her on her nose. It has turned into my way of silently saying you're welcome to her.

Rachel is a beautiful name, I have always thought that. Though I never wanted to admit that.

"Sanny"

"Yes love"

"I'm still cold."

"Sorry my precious here" I set down the cup of hot cocoa that has my initials and Rachel's together placed in the center of a read heart. And wrap myself around her, she allows herself to sink into me.

The day we got that cup customized, is when I propose to her. I gave her a gold ring, engraved with 'Between us is Love' on it. I thought it was very considerable for us.

I took that line from a poem I wrote to her when I had the most perfect experience, of seeing her for the first time. I never thought she would be able to read it. I never wanted her to see it. I was quite shy around her. I think it was the way she looked at me like she was about to make love to me. Or the way her touch felt even if it was just I little brush. She always made me melt. She is my greatest accomplishment in my life in my world.

Sorry I am getting carried away. The poem's name was 'The Love Between'.

I don't know if you are a princess from where you come from.

But you sure are beautiful like one.

I would give you crown, but instead I have this heart of mine.

I hope it's enough for us to start our own future.

Just consider this...

I will write songs named after you.

Cuddle with you when you are sad or scared.

Give you goodnight kisses.

I will do all the romantic cliché things.

Just to get you to fall in love with me.

Your heart is just a beat away from mine.

And dammit I want it so much closer.

But no need to rush.

I am going to wait and wait for that precious moment.

I don't want to be a fool.

But I would be a fool for you.

I would be anything for you.

Until there is no distance between us.

Until between us is love.

It was freshman year. The first attempt at writing a poem or writing at all really. And it was for her. Everything is for her. Honestly it always will be.

And her she is, the woman of my life here to spend forever with me.
