Author's Notes: This series is modeled after the stagesoflove drabble challenge on livejournal.
He had taken her to a field filled with white daisies, some place she never expected him to take her. He lay a blanket on the ground and he lay down on it, holding his arms out to her. They had these private moments sometimes, moments that were sweet and tender and she lived for them.
They lay there and relaxed. She felt him pull her hair back from her face and kiss her neck. He tucked something behind her ear. It was a daisy. She smiled and pulled his arms tighter around her.
"I feel blessed ta hol'ya, protect ya' from them nightmares, kiss yer brow when yer sleepy, or take car'a ya when yer sick." He kissed her neck tenderly.
"I feel so blessed to be in your arms right now, Jayne. Nothing could change that."
"Iffen I were ta get so lucky, I'd be mighty glad ta wake up nex'ta ya each day."
"So would I."
It was unspoken, their new commitment to each other. Zoë pressed the daisy in a book, a reminder of their love. Not that she needed one.
