Morning Light

With a soft sigh, turning into a grumble as the sunlight struck her still closed eyes through a gap in the bedroom curtains, Violet Hutchison awoke.

'I'd almost be pissed off at the sun for waking me up, if it didn't wake me to this most wonderful sight.' She thought, the corners of her mouth tugging up in a small smile.

Said wonderful sight was her wife Clementine Hutchison, asleep in bed next to her. The sun making the twenty year old's caramel skin glow as Violet watched. She and Clem were still relatively new to their marriage, having married only a year ago, but moments like these always made Violet feel that same sense of overwhelming emotion she felt when she first met Clementine. She recalled Clementine's incredulity when Violet refused her idea of combining their last names. At her insistence on taking Clem's last name.

She could still recall with perfect clarity exactly why. 'To get rid of the last shackle of my old life; the last thing binding me to those...people who dared call themselves my parents. The Adlon name.'

She shook her head, dismissing the thought. This wasn't a time for the past; this was a time for basking in the present. Sitting up, holding the covers around herself for warmth on the sunny but cold winter's day, she continued to smile at Clem's sleeping form and remember the joyful times they shared. Coming out of the hard difficulties that had been Violet's senior year when they first met. Staying in touch until Clementine joined her at college. Then the proposal, the wedding. With a delicate touch Violet reached out, gently caressing Clem's warm cheek. Golden brown eyes fluttered open as Clementine smiled.

"Morning, you watching me sleep, creeper?" She joked groggily.

Violet just laughed. "I'm not that long up myself. Was just, remembering."

Clem sat up too, snaking her arm around Violet's waist, knowing what she meant and together, they basked in the morning light together.
