I Love You

Have you ever loved someone so much, you cried?

"Please, darling lets cuddle now. We had our fun, lets cuddle now."

"As you wish, my princess." His hand coerces me, his elegant fingers softly twirl on the skin of my stomach.

"Mmmmm," He surrounds my dozing body holding me tighter and tighter. I begin to fade thinking of nonsensical situations.

"It's 8, baby girl." A muffled whisper is all I can pick up as sleep slowly feasts upon me.

"Would you like me to carry you to your bed?" I catch every other word.

"N-n-no. Lemme wak gyou tu.... door," Sleep talk... My new language.

With a haze hanging over me, I feel chiseled arms scoop beneath me cautiously. I am being held, carried even.

"Kimmy, I will never leave you. You are my world, you are the reason I wake up every morning, you are the reason I am still alive. Love was just a word until you walked into my life. I know you are the one. I know I will find no one else like you. You are one in a trillion, and I'm the lucky soul who gets to be yours." My ear tingles.

He lies me down carefully on my bed kissing my lips gently. "Goodnight, baby girl. I love you. Sleep well."

I am half awake and half sleeping. I watch him leave my room. After a few minutes of his departure, I cry.
