One Year Later...
It was a chilly day again with Brie and Roman both in warm coats and fuzzy warm sweaters, scarves and mittens. He had asked her to meet him at their ice rink and gotten her skates on. They laughed and joked about Brie being just as bad at skating this year as when they met and she said she had been practicing.
"Without me?" He had given her his world class pouty face and she had tangled her fingers in his silky, gorgeous, long hair as he had been knelt down in front of her, tying her laces up. She had tucked her mittens in her pockets, wanting to touch him more and not caring about the cold.
She nodded, licking her lips at him. "Yes Baby, Nikki has actually been patient with me and tried to give me a few lessons. I am still pretty shaky on my feet but I am trying."
Roman smiled and leaned into her touch on his cheek and turned his head to press a kiss to her palm. In no time he had her up and she was skating! No hand holds and no falling for at least the first few minutes and he was very impressed, she could tell. She flew back into his arms at the edge of the rink after skating a full circle around without falling or even once!
Roman had said he had gotten it all reserved just for them for the night. She had been curious and even more so when he got out a bottle of champagne and said they needed to toast to a year of being together. It hadn't been easy but they had been determined to make the long distance connection they had started work and grow and fight to stay thriving despite how far apart they were.
Training for him was only a couple months out in Florida and she used that time to focus much more on her internship too. They would video call as often as they could and made trips back and forth to see each other once a month or so but it was never ever long enough. Goodbyes got harder and harder every time. But 3 months felt doable and would be over before she knew it, he would keep reminding her. They just needed to get past that and he would be back.
But that did not end up to be the case at all.
After his initial few months there it had been heartbreaking to hear him tell her that his bosses saw such promise in him in I.E.D dismantling and that there was only that one base that he could get the best leadership to mentor him to learn all he could in that field. Florida. She was so proud of him yet so scared too. For them.
She had started to second guess her desire to stay closer to her sister out in New York since Roman wouldn't be due back to this base for a long time.
Brie knew his heart had been to help people and to go overseas to be that change to make that real difference in the world so she could never stand in the way of that. But it hurt her to hear that their 3 months of long distance would be so much longer. How they had survived the full year she had no idea.
Roman had just come back in as a complete surprise on the Red Eye and surprised her early this morning and they had snuggled in her bed all day and she had not let him go from her sight till he said he wanted to show her something and to get dressed warm and come skating just one time with him.
The glasses clinked, foam dripping from the side of the bottle as she beamed at him as they sat together. After the drinks, he held up his very familiar beige and black plaid scarf. She would always remember it being the way they had their first kiss.
Brie beamed at him right then, tugging his lips back to hers just once more, tasting the champagne on them combined with the sweetness that was all him and moaned in pure bliss at how happy she was to finally have him back in her arms again.
Roman smiled against her lips and wrapped the scarf around the back of her neck while they kissed, pulled her in even closer if it was possible. "Mmm, Baby girl, I missed you so much," he said in his sexy deep voice.
He tugged her fully onto his lap while sitting on the hay bales at the side of the ice. His jean clad legs were hanging down over the ice and he palmed her butt and pulled her in even more against him. "Can you tell I missed you my sweet Brie? I am so sorry it had been so long."
It had been. Too long. Weeks since they had seen each other, been close, been in the same state as each other and just soaked in each others presence. Everything felt better when they were together. They had not been able to afford the time or the money to do monthly visits the last few times and so weeks had just stretched on and on and the ache for each other grew deeper.
Roman dipped his head and nuzzled his nose in under her sweater and coat, just at the hollow of her throat and sucked the skin between his lips and heard her moan and clutch at his hair.
"Mmm Rome, I missed you too so much. I hate being apart. I hate every time you have to leave again," she mumbled as her head fell back and he licked and suckled more at her skin, tugging the sweater down more.
She could have melted against him as he kissed her and slowly pulled his head up, cupped her head and stared deeply in her eyes, his own brown eyes so dark and dilated "I hate it too baby. I might have an answer for that though..." But before he said more his mouth covered hers, kissing her passionately, holding her head steady. "God, I missed these lips," he groaned, cradling her face in his palms.
Slowly he pulled back and looked into her eyes, and she blinked slowly, pulling herself from the haze of his kisses. "Surprise time," Roman smiled, gently tying the scarf up over her eyes. "No peeking Love," he breathed against her cheek.
She nodded eagerly, excited for the surprise. Brie leaned in, stealing another kiss while he was busy tying the scarf. His hands slid between the strands of her hair and she whimpered as he moved in closer, his body knelt between her legs as they kissed long and leisurely, tasting and reveling in each other. She loved him so much.
Roman finally drew back from her lips, gently pulling her to her feet. He guided them back onto the ice and spun her in a few circles so she had no idea which direction was what. Then he led her skating them around the rink, his hold firm and secure around her waist.
When he slid to a stop he let his scarf fall from her eyes. She opened them and he said to look up. Brie saw they were under the archway again and there hung a gorgeous ring from the mistletoe!
She had gasped and looked back at his huge goofy grin. His long dark hair was framing his face as he smiled so wide, his brown eyes shining in the sunlight. He untangled the ring from the greenery and knelt to one knee right there on the ice.
The brunette beauty almost slipped then and would have landed ungracefully on her ass at such a romantic moment, however Roman steadied her with his other hand as he held out the ring.
"Marry me my beautiful Brie. Be my everything, forever. I think I loved you the second you crashed into me that night, right here. But getting to know you more and more, I realized I want to love you for the rest of our lives. I want to have babies with you and watch them grow up and have families of their own."
He was still on his knee as he looked up, so achingly sweet into her already teary eyes. He shook his silky hair back behind his shoulders, having it fall in waves down his light gray coat, as his fingers were trembling as he held the ring between them.
"I love you and I want to grow old with you and experience all of what life throws at as, good or bad. I don't want to keep leaving you and having a long distance relationship. I want to face everything together and never say goodbye ever again. I want life with you and.."
He paused and wiped his hand across his face, flipping his dark hair back looking angry at it cause it was slightly windy and getting in his face and Brie saw he was so emotional too. That made her even more is awe of this moment and tears started slipping down her cheeks.
She was already so eager to say yes and wanted to bend down and pull his hair back to caress his face. It was so cute that something like that was annoying him as he was trying to propose to her but she knew he wanted to say all this and she wanted to give Roman everything he ever dreamed of in this moment.
Roman looked back up at her, ignoring his hair in his face and shook his head again to get the strands away laughing. "Baby girl, I don't care where we end up, or how successful we are in our careers right now I'm just so tired of being apart from you so much that I literally ache when I have to leave you again. I just want to be able to love you and show you how much, till I breath my last." He wiped his face again and held out the ring, his own hand shaking. She grabbed for it to steady him.
Brie nodded, words totally escaping her for a moment as she held out her other hand. "Oh, Roman. I feel that way too. I don't want keep saying goodbye. I don't want to live here and keep doing my internship here if it means being so far from you. I want YOU so much more and I can figure out work from somewhere else."
His eyes were shining and held such hope in them as the ring was shaking in his hand and she realized she had not even said anything about it yet. "Oh, yes! Yes, yes, yes I will marry you Rome! I would love nothing more!"
She was nearly jumping up and down and forgot she was still in skates and grabbed for the archway to stay upright.
His smile could rival the brightest the sun shone right then and his dark head bent, his lips so warm on the skin of her hand, kissing down her finger before slipping the ring on. She had tried to kneel down too to kiss him, but ended up slipping as she was so excited.
Roman caught her and they fell laughing to the ice as she screamed. "I'm engaged!" she cried out even though there wasn't a soul around, except the two of them.
Brie felt his lips on hers, the softness of his touch and the new-found feeling of a ring on her finger! She pulled back from the warmth of his body against hers and stared at the sparkling diamond, letting the light catch it.
He has asked her to marry him! She was engaged! "I love you so much Roman," she moaned into the kiss.
"Mmm, I love you too...Mrs. soon to be Reigns..." he whispered, grinning and tangling his tongue with hers.
Brie loved the sound of that and pulled him closer, capturing his soft lips again before she started jumping up and down more in his arms. She was in awe that she could be this happy. It felt surreal. She pulled him down to literally roll on the ice beside the archway, kissing him deeply...the very same archway where they had shared their first kiss.
Roman had laughed and fallen down on top of her as she dragged him with her. Their lips crashed together again as she lay in his arms, holding him closer while still seeing her ring sparkling on her finger.
He dove in, swallowing her screams with his lips. Roman pulled on the ends of his scarf around her neck, bringing her to him, just as she had done to him for their first kiss and they lay kissing on the ice. Blissfully happy and so, so in love and excited for the future.
Brie turned back to look at their daughter. Lily was fast asleep, her hand still ready to turn the next page in her Little Mermaid book. She was the most excited to see Ariel and all her friends. That had been her favorite movie for a year now and she loved anything to do with Ariel.
The plane was shifting slightly back and forth as Brie tucked Lily in under her blanket. They could move around and unbuckle but Brie preferred to stay put, her seat between her daughter and the window, knowing she was safe. Her eyes started closing too, knowing they would be in the air awhile yet.
The sun was just peeking up over the horizon, casting such a colorful glow. She closed the window a bit, to keep it darker and laid back, feeling so sleepy herself. Brie cradled her belly, feeling the slight kicks and laid her head down on the seat above Lily's.
The lack of sleep was catching up with her and she closed her eyes thinking back to more happy moments, more laughter and romance, before all the busyness of parenting. Back when they had promised each other forever in front of all their family and friends...
Roman and Brie were married a few months later on the most beautiful sunny May afternoon. The flowers were blooming, the birds singing, the romantic music drifting through the air. They decided to make the location even more meaningful and got married there too.
In spring the ice rink was nothing but hay bales, strung with lights, all pure white at Brie's request for their wedding. The tiny bulbs cast such a romantic glow. They decorated the archway in a sea of fresh colorful flowers, red, pink and white roses, lily's and iris' and more greenery.
Brie made sure there was one sprig of mistletoe hung in remembrance of their first kiss.
The chairs were white and lined the aisle with more flowers. They stood under the archway, saying their vows and exchanging their rings, promising each other forever together.
Brie chose a simple strapless white dress that hung in soft waves of shiny fabric down to her feet. She had her hair down, falling in soft waves across her back. A diamond and pink gemstone wrapped headpiece encircling her head, the simple sheer veil attached at the back. She wore a soft pink necklace with matching earrings and bracelet her parents had given her as a gift.
Nikki was the maid of honor and two of her close friends, Paige and AJ both whom she met in nursing school were bridesmaids. They were all dressed in soft pink strapless, silk dresses and carried bouquets of red, white and pink roses.
Roman was dashing in the black suit with brilliant white vest and shirt. His best friend Dean was his best man along with two other friends and fellow teammates in the army Seth and CM Punk were his groomsman. The men wore pink roses and Roman's rose was red.
Dean was in the army too and he had been the reason Roman was even at that ice rink that night. He prided himself in helping his bestie find his soul mate, since he was the guy that had actually pulled Nikki away from Brie on the ice and had caused her to skate right into Roman in the first place. He looked to be making eyes at the maid of honor too and his best friend was curious if another love connection had been brought to life.
Roman froze, seeing his beautiful bride walking toward him and suddenly nothing else mattered.
Nothing but her.
Brie walked down the aisle carrying a full bouquet of red roses, tied with a pink ribbon hanging down. She smiled at her groom, meeting his eyes as she started to walk toward him.
It was as if everyone else melted away in that moment.
All she saw was him.
His gorgeous smile back at her. His brown eyes sparkling. His pure joy that this day had finally come. His warm hand took hers as she stepped up under the archway beside him.
When they came to the part where he kissed the bride, Brie gently pulled the sprig of mistletoe out from where it hung and held it up over the two of them, her eyes dancing with excitement.
He met her lips, his own hands cradling her face as they kissed to the clapping of the guests as they stood. They parted, beaming at each other, leaning their foreheads together before the newly married couple raced down the aisle to the sound of romantic music in their ears.
The ice rink became the dance floor, a little stage made up for the band and tables all around for first the meal and then the dancing. Roman twirled her around in his arms, holding her close as she laid her head on his shoulder and swayed to the music. She felt the most peaceful and safe and warm as she had ever felt in her life.
Their first dance was to 'I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas' even though it was May. They didn't care. It was their song, to hell with playing Christmas songs almost in summer!
They hugged everyone goodbye saying huge thank yous all around for such an amazing day. Family was so welcoming with her mom hugging her groom tight with tears in her eyes, her dad offering Roman a firm handshake and a hug. His big family was full of love and hugs and well wishes and his parents held her close too, saying they were so happy they found each other and everyone said to have a great honeymoon.
The door of their suite slammed shut behind him as Roman had carried her across the threshold and kicked it closed with his foot. He stumbled them toward the bed as she was tugging his shirt out from his pants while kissing him hungrily. They fell onto the bed, kissing and panting for breath, Brie kicking off her white high heels. Roman started unzipping her dress as she moaned while she went for the zipper of his dress pants, yanking it down and tugging his pants down his hips.
"God, Brie," he rasped, his voice shaky. He looked up, his dark brown gaze searing through her before his lips crashed back onto hers. He got the zipper all the way down, and she wriggled out of the silky fabric till it pooled at her bare feet enough for her to kick it to the floor. Roman carefully took her diamond studded crown and veil out of her hair and laid it on the table, before burying his fingers in her soft hair.
Brie got his shirt unbuttoned and pulled it off his shoulders, while still kissing him every second she could reach his lips. She pulled his head down, tugging at the dark, long, silky, locks as her lace clad hips grinded into his. "Mmm, I've wanted to get you alone all damn day Rome. Need you so much.." she gasped, between kisses and pulling harder on his head, never wanting the feelings to end.
"I'm right here my sweet Brie. All yours forever," he whimpered into the kiss and fell onto her, slipping his hand behind her back enough to pop the clasp of her bra. He threw the offending item across the room and kissed down her throat, sucking her skin in his mouth, laving her pulse point with his tongue. "Never, ever fucking leaving you again," Roman groaned as he sucked deeper at her skin and thrust his hips against hers.
"Mmmm, Roman," she moaned, throwing her head back, her fingers tugging at his hair. "I love you SO much."
He lifted his head, his hair falling in unruly strands all down his face past his shoulders, taking in how beautiful she was beneath him. He bent to pull her bottom lip in his mouth. "I love you too. So, so much Baby girl," he whispered against her lips.
Brie practically ripped the dress shirt down his back, exposing the hard muscles under it to her probing fingers as he shook his arms free of the sleeves. She ran her hands up and down his sides as they kissed ravenously, tasting, needing, aching for every part of each other. He was hurrying to shimmy out of the dress pants and pulled his boxers down at the same time, kicking off his shoes and socks as fast as he could.
Again it had been far too long to have seen her and too much of the wedding planning even had been done the last few months long distance. It was never enough time when they were together and now finally they would be doing life together no matter what they faced it would be together. The goodbyes from here on out would be only if he was shipped overseas and nothing more. She was determined to follow him whenever he was stationed and they would make it work. They were worth it.
Roman stood up enough to toss his clothes to the side and then knelt at the side of the bed seeing the sexy little pink lace garter on her thigh. With a wink and wiggle of his brows, he tugged it down her leg with his teeth and threw it to the floor. His hands had glided up her hips and skimmed her lace panties down her legs.
Brie was looking down at him, her own brown eyes sparking with love and watching him lick his way back up her thigh as his beautiful eyes never left hers. She was grinning down at him as his hands spread her thighs more as she lay in the middle of the bed and she watched his tongue dip down between them and felt the rush of sensations flood her.
Her head fell back, hands clenched in the sheets and he licked all the way up to tease her center and suck the bundle of nerves in his mouth. "God, Roman," she breathed out falling into the pillows. Her hands scrambled for his hair, her hips crashed up to his mouth and she moaned more as he delved deeper.
Roman's palms were tight on her hips, and pulling her head up she saw he was still watching her, mesmerized by her reactions. But she couldn't wait anymore. She just wanted him closer and now. They had their whole honeymoon for more.
Brie started pulling him up by his neck, shaking her head and gasping. "Want you...in me, please..." she begged. "No, more waiting. It's been too long."
He smiled and crawled up her body and they kissed long and wet, open mouthed moans and whimpers piercing the air. Brie's head fell back as his mouth blazed a trail down her skin just slightly too taking a nipple in his mouth as she cried out his name. He laid between her spread thighs and nudged her opening. She was more than ready for him.
"Roman, please..." she begged, pulling on his waist, rubbing herself up along his rock hard length, teasing him with her wetness. He plunged in, cradling her head in his hands and rocked his hips back and forth as she panted under him.
"Brie," he gasped out, his head falling to the bed above her shoulder and he kissed and licked at her shoulder and neck before he pulled his head up and rested it on her forehead." Roman was so slow in their lovemaking and pushing in and out of her warmth as he laced their hands together beside her head. He just gazed down at her beneath him and they stared at each other in absolute awe. There were no words to encompass the feelings of how happy she felt.
She panted and nodded to him. "I know Roman. I know." And he smiled down at her before delving in to capture her lips again in a bruising kiss, as he thrust still deeper, making her groan in pleasure at how amazing he felt so deep inside her.
He spun them so she was on top, her lips and tongue sucked on his shoulder, kissed along his chest and up his neck. He held her hips tight and she wondered if there would be actual bruising the next day. His palms clenched around her curves as he thrust more into her, his hands cupped her breasts, teasing her pebbled nipples, molding the soft flesh in his hands.
Everything he was doing, every touch, every part of her felt on alight and awake to every sensation as the pressure was building she could practically taste the waves of her pleasure crashing.
Roman spun her back under him again, tangling them in the silky white sheets, his strokes getting just that right spot now to push her over the edge as he was groaning and clutching her sides so tight and had buried his head in her neck, nearly biting her. "Oh, my God Brie..." his voice broke mid way, his teeth in her shoulder.
Her nails were in his arms, her own head against his chest, feeling his heart racing. She pulled her head up and locked her eyes with his, seeing the hunger and pure love just flood his features in that moment as he mouthed her name. She dove against his lips at the last second as she felt everything combust and his hands gripped her so tight, his lips were so bruising against hers as he could hardly cry out as they melted into each other in complete bliss.
They came to an earth shattering climax very close together, calling each others names between hungry breathless kisses before Roman's head fell to lay beside hers. She turned enough to kiss him once more, his lips trembling as she tasted his moans of her name. His body was slick with sweat and shuddering against hers coming down from their highs.
"I love you so much Brie. God, I can't even describe how much," he groaned against her salty tasting skin.
She smiled, kissing a path from his jaw to his lips. "I think you did a great job describing how much baby. I love you too, forever." They nuzzled in, Roman rolled over for her to lay against his chest and they fell into a blissful sleep.
"I love you too...so much Roman," Brie mumbled to herself, her fingers tangling in his necklace. She pulled it out from her camisole and kissed the metal before tucking it back in. She didn't know when she had woken up from dreaming of him, to replaying their wedding night in such vivid detail in her head.
It had been incredible, every moment. Every day of their honeymoon they spent more time in their room than anywhere else. Maui was beautiful Brie realized, but they saw more of it from their hotel window.
Brie glanced down to see Lily still fast asleep. The little girl only started to open her eyes once they were coming in to land. She held her mom's hand and was so brave. Her camel was tight against her chest and she was so excited when she could see the other planes from her window as they taxied into the terminal.
They had made it. Halfway there. Everything would be easier once they got there. Brie was glad to stretch her legs now and realized she was probably almost waddling already as they made their way down to their gate. There was a layover here in Nashville International for a few hours before they boarded their plane to Florida.
Lily was pulling on her mom and already looking for another play structure. Brie knew it was very much in her best interest to find one, so that her big girl could get out some much needed energy so she could relax on the last leg of their journey. Traveling with a little child was proving busy enough on top of being pregnant too. She hadn't felt any nausea the whole plane ride so far but now Brie could feel her stomach flipping.
Her held Lily's hand tight as they made there way to the nearest bathroom and Brie raced into the family one, pulling her daughter in with her.
"Stay right here baby. Mommy is not feeling well but I need you to stay right here against this wall." She had closed the over sized stall and firmly set Lily against the wall away from the door and she fell to her knees by the toilet.
The bags from her shoulders dropped as she gagged and threw up most of her last meal. There had not been a meal on the short flight from New York to Tennessee but even the snack and juice she had before, was coming up.
"Mommy, are you okay?" Lily asked moving closer. Brie was leaning her head to her arm over the seat and gagged more.
"Just stay right there sweetie. Your baby brother or sister is not happy." Brie saw the fear in the little girls eyes fade as Lily stretched out her hand and rubbed her Mommy's back.
"Oh, you mean they didn't like the airplane Momma?" Brie nodded yes that was probably very true. But her morning sickness did not just stay in the mornings or even only in the first 3 months. This baby was determined to show her a more rocky journey than their big sister had been.
She thought back to not even knowing if they would be able to have a baby…
The years felt like they went quickly. Roman had training in Florida when they were still dating and now they had moved to Texas for a few years before moving back to New York. Brie had done well in her internship even with switching it to a Florida hospital and gotten one at a nearby hospital close to both bases and never had a problem finding another one if they moved. People seemed to be pretty understanding of being a military spouse and the challenges that came with that
Roman had been sent on one tour roughly a year after their wedding and quickly became the go to guy with his team to disassemble I.E.D.'s. He worked for most months in the year overseas and was home only a few weeks either in summer or over Christmas. Brie was kept busy by her internship or she would have missed him much more.
There was always a whirlwind of celebration when Roman got home. He would hold her like she had imagined and dreamed about for months at a time. They would talk on Skype and write letters often when he was away, just to feel closer to each other, but nothing felt better than having him back in her arms after so long.
His best friend had been showing interest in her sister at their wedding already and unbeknownst to anyone, the couple started dating that summer and Dean and Nikki were married the year after. The wedding was just a few short weeks from when they both served their first tour.
Dean was a quick study on the explosives and they worked as a team with Seth and Punk who they had met on the army base that first year and saved hundreds of lives. If he wasn't overseas, Roman was training, learning and becoming the best bomb team leader in the army.
They had only started trying for a baby after their second anniversary. He had a year when he was working right from the base by New York and could be home every night and so they decided to try to get pregnant.
Roman had found her one night laying on the ice at 'their' rink. She had thought he was fast asleep but he must have noticed her side of the bed empty and followed her. It wasn't much of a surprise for him to find her there. She came there at any season, to think or to be alone. It was almost spring and they had been trying for a baby for almost a year with no luck so far.
He stepped onto the ice with his boots. It was almost time for skating season to be over. Her husband saw her laying in the middle of the ice and she had thought ahead this time and brought a blanket to lay on in the middle of the night. He moved closer and laid down beside her. Brie remembered him opening his arms, and her nuzzling in on his shoulder. Her arm went over his body, pulling him close as they stared up at the sky. He wrapped her up in his coat, tucking them both in just as he had done that first week he met her as they sat on the hay bales.
She knew barely a word had been spoken that night but they both knew what they were thinking. Roman had just gotten word his detachment was leaving after the weekend for another tour. She had him home a full year and did not know how she could possibly let him go for so long again. He knew she was scared and how much she had wanted to be pregnant by now to have a piece of him stay with her while he was gone.
Roman knew it was a constant worry to her too that he was always so close to the explosives and yet had such a talent for dismantling them. He was doing what he dreamed, saving lives and she could not be more proud.
But that night they just laid there in silence, clinging to each other knowing they could not stop what was coming. Not unless they both ran away from their responsibilities.
He took a picture of them snuggled up on the ice and had it developed so he could take it with him. She lay in his arms, on the blanket, wrapped in his coat, just watching the stars twinkling in the night sky.
Once they both were too cold, he stood up and helped her up. She leaned into his chest as they walked back to the base. They still had not said anything but they needed this time.
Roman had walked them home, the blanket around them both, shielding her from the cold and picked her up in his arms as they stepped through the door and kissed her deeply. He held Brie up, wrapping her legs around his waist, pushing her against the closed door and kissed her all over.
He dropped his coat, and slowly peeled her jacket, shirt and pants off her, tugging off her boots and socks. They kissed passionately, with moans and whimpers of pleasure.
Roman carried her to their island and set her down in just her sexy sky blue lace underwear before he pulled his own shirt off, and kicked off his boots and she made quick work of his own jeans, tugging him harder toward her, between her spread legs on the counter.
They continued to undress each other fully before he was scooping her up naked from the counter with a squeal and carried her to their living room to lay her down on the rug.
Roman made love to his wife on the shag rug in their living room by their fireplace. He whispered promises and declarations of love as he kissed her and worshiped her body and memorized every damn inch of her and had her crying out his name as he held her as close as he could.
Brie cradling him within her, stroking his sweat soaked long hair back from his handsome and now blissfully sated face. She wanted to stay molded together as long as they could. He was everything she needed right then. They fell asleep like that, wrapped in each others arms and did not move all night and woke up to the bright light of the sun shining in the windows.
Brie dreaded the daylight. Kissing his lips, tasting their sweetness and how soft they were against hers, as her husband was still fast asleep in her arms, she already ached. Roman was so warm and so perfect and so safe and protected from everything in the world right there in her embrace, she hugged him tighter and closed her eyes.
Already hating what the day would bring and hating that life and saving others took him away so much. It felt like such a noble and honorable dream as an adult to be the change you want to see in the world. It was one of the things she fell in love with about him.
However cradling her husband so warm in her arms right then she was already breaking inside.
It was getting too hard every damn time he had to leave again.
