Gracia Hughes.

Time of death, 07:28 am.

"Gracia?"

She felt so light. Must still be asleep. She only heard his voice when she was asleep.

"Honey, its time to get up."

Oh Maes… when I open my eyes, you wont be there…

Gracia felt slightly chapped lips brush against hers. The mouth moved down to her ear, and she felt warm breath on her skin as well as the faint scrape of an unshaven cheek against hers. "If you don't open your eyes, I'm going to tickle you…"

Even using Maes' favorite threat.

She jerked awake as fingers brushed against her ribs, and smacked her head on a perpetually bewhiskered chin. "Morning, honey!" Maes chirped, wrapping her arms around her. Gracia was too shocked to reply. Maes nuzzled her jaw. "You knew we'd be together again someday…" he whispered.
