The rain fell outside while I cooked the pasta Tom and I were going to have for dinner.
That night was our one-year anniversary and I couldn't be more excited.
"It smells delicious darling" Tom whispered in my neck making me laugh nervously.
"It's our dinner" I explained string the soup and returning to cut some of the vegetables. "There's the soup, and then pasta and for dessert a special souffle"
"Oh really? I was thinking of eating something else for dessert." Tom said hugging me from behind. I chuckled and felt my face turn red.
"Tom!" He laughed loudly and then showed me the bottle of wine he had brought
"This is for before," He said in a playfully seductive voice opening the bottle and grabbing two cups.
"Thank you, darling," I said when he offered me one. I took a couple of sips before Tom turned and raised the volume of the music taking me in his arms and spinning me around with tremendous agility.
"You know? I love you" He whispered with just enough volume for me to hear over the music. I really couldn't tell if my dizziness was due to the wine or the happiness of being in his arms.
"I love you too" I said smiling. Tom put our foreheads together and closed his eyes.
"I really mean it T/N" He opened his eyes and stared directly into mine, making me feel completely naked.
"I love you like I have never loved anyone before. I love who I am when I'm with you, I love that you are always late and that you are clumsy to the bone. I love that coffee hurt your stomach but you still drink it every morning." I laughed, that was true. He always made that first cup of coffee for me.
"I love that you always make my heart warm. I... I love you T/N" I smiled feeling my heart stop. We were slowly turning around the kitchen with his hands firmly on my waist.
"Tom..." He gently put a finger on my mouth caressing my lips.
"You don't have to say anything. I just wanted to say it out loud at least once. How you really make me feel. God T/N I'm bisotted" He said kissing me softly coping my cheek with one hand and pulling me even closer with the other.
Being in his arms like that, feeling him consume me, was heaven.
