I had been lying on the couch with Winnie all day, trying endlessly to get Sarah out of bed. she had been in a paralysed emotional state, worrying about the election and covid....lets just say life in general. she hasn't eaten, she hasn't drank, she hasn't moved and she hasn't said a word.
"Winnie, do you want to go check on mommy again?....yeah?. yeah you do let's go"
Winnie began wagging her tail following me to the bedroom.
"darling please you can't stay in bed all day", I said walking into our dark bedroom, the shutters all closed "why don't you come and eat something at least"
I walked over and sat next to Sarah who was laying on her side hugging the pillow tightly. I tugged the blanket down slightly, revealing her face, placing my hand on her cheek, wiping the tear that was so delicately placed on her cheek.
"I don't want to leave", Sarah whispered, continuing to keep eye contact with the wall
"I know but you need to", I guided her head to look up and me and I smiled.
I watched as her face scrunched, threatening to produce tears once again
"oh darling", I leant down holding her head to my chest, to which she responded by clinging to me.
"holland everything is fucked"
"I know but we need to make the most of it"
"how?", she sobbed
"I don't know my angel, but we'll figure it out, and the world with un-fuck itself, we just need to be patient", I said causing her to giggle lightly
I pulled away from the hug looking down at her breathtaking smile
"see, there's that smile that I've been looking for", I helped Sarah sit up and she pulled me in for another hug
"I love you"
"I love you more"
"I love you most"
"impossible"
"nothings impossible"
"why don't we get out", I combed my fingers through her hair
"honey, did you forget that we're in the middle of a pandemic"
"we don't we have a picnic or something?"
"you hate picnics", she smirked, still in the embrace
"I know but I love you, and you love picnics"
"okay", she sniffled, pulling back from the hug and giving me a couple quick kisses
"why don't we order some Thai food and then go out to the garden"
"yeah....I would like that", she wipes the tear under her eye, taking my hand as I lead her onto the couch
--
Sarah and I walked out into the garden placing down a white sheet along with some pillows and a big blanket, incase it got cold.
"wine?", I asked as Sarah sat down with the bowel and the take-out bag
"always", she said looking up at me
I came back out with the wine and two glasses, Sarah then helping me down
"what do you wanna start with?", she smiled
"Pad Thai please"
"okay pass me the curry"
"there you go"
we both sat there eating and drinking in silence while watching the sun set over the miraculous view that was painted in-front of us
"holland?"
"mm?", I looked at her
"I wanna say thank you for tonight, for being able to keep my mind of the election and covid for a while"
"my pleasure gorgeous girl", I kissed her cheek, she placed her hand moving my head so that she could now connect her lips directly with mine
"I love you"
"I love you more"
"I love you most"
"impossible"
"nothings impossible"
--
"I feel so sick", Sarah groaned
"you ate a lot of food"
"why did you order so much?", she huffed falling back onto a pillow
"Because I knew you would eat it all, and you did", I laughed joining her
we both lay back looking up to the stars, Sarah quickly making her way into my arms, pulling the blanket up around us as it began to get colder.
I pulled Sarah closer, running my hands through her hair, my head resting on-top on hers
Sarah looked up at me, simply staring
"what are you staring you"
"will you kiss me?", she said lifting her eyebrows, as we had never kissed before
"always"
I rolled Sarah over slightly, so I was hovering over her and then leant in, kissing her gently, before continuing with more passion
"best six years of my life", she whispered in-between kisses
"and hopefully many more to come"
"you don't need to hope"
"I don't?', I smirked
"never", she pulled the back of my neck, intertwining our lips once more.
I placed my knee in-between Sarah's legs causing her to stop
"here?", she questioned
"why not"
Sarah simply shrugged before beginning to grind down on my knee.
this is for sure take her mind off everything
