I don't know for the life of me why I just said that. Fuck. I've made here cry again. What the fuck is the matter with me?

"I'm so sorry Hailey.  I don't know why I just said that.  I feel like such an ass.  Please forgive me".  I don't know what to do.  I'm still inside her and I'm holding her and caressing the side of her face and she's closed her eyes because she doesn't want to look at me.  I know she is fighting the tears but they are there. "Hailey, please look at me", I say, after what seems like an excruciating couple of minutes.

She opens her eyes and looks into mine and I feel the slightest bit relieved. I kiss her softly on the lips and I tell her again how sorry I am. "I swear Hailey, that I don't know why I said that to you. I think maybe I was trying to be funny but I know that it wasn't. It was completely inappropriate and I wish I could take it back". Another minute passes of complete silence and then I say, "Hailey, please say something. Talk to me baby".

"I guess you just caught me by surprise is all. I try not to think about all the women you've been with and what you are used to but, Chance, sometimes I can't help it. I'm so worried that I am not going to be enough for you and when you said that you've done this before, well, I, it just reminded me of all that again".

"Oh, Hailey", I say as I pull her into my chest. "That is all in the past. I don't want anyone else but you. You are my wife, baby, and I love you. I'm so sorry that I said what I said to you. I was trying to reassure you about what we were doing but I definitely went about it the wrong way. Please baby, please forgive me".

I am still inside of her this whole time that we've been talking and I'm wondering if I should pull out and give her some space. Just as I am about to do just that, she touches the side of my face with her hand and says, "I know you weren't trying to hurt my feelings. Of course I forgive you". With that, she pulls my head down towards her and kisses me on the lips. She slides her hands down my shoulders and onto my back and I feel like I can breath once again. "Besides", she says. "It's probably a good thing that at least one of us knows what to do", and she smiles at me.

This girl. I love her so much. She is absolutely the best person I've ever met in my life. I don't know what I did to deserve her. Her forgiveness makes me want her that much more. We pick things back up right where we left off and I'm loving her and she's loving me back. My emotions get the best of me and just a few short minutes later, I am spilling into my girl once again. "I love you, Hailey", I tell her as I slide out of her and pull her into me so that she's lying next to me with her head upon my chest.

" I love you too Chance".

I guess the two of us must have fallen asleep because the next thing I know is that I open my eyes and my girl is still right there, asleep on my chest.  I glance at the clock on the bedside table and it's now 4:00 pm. We've been asleep for a couple of hours.  Wow. I guess we really needed it. I don't want to wake up Hailey as I'd love to stay just like this for as long as is possible but I've got to take a piss so I try my best to scoot out from underneath her without waking her but it doesn't work.

"Hey you", I say as she opens her eyes to my movement.  I kiss her on the lips. "I didn't mean to wake you but I need to get up for a minute". 

She sits up in the bed and rubs her eyes as I stand up and walk over to the bathroom. I am only gone a few minutes but when I return Hailey is in the other bathroom.

I pull my sweats on and grab a bottle of water out of the mini fridge. Hailey comes out of the bathroom a few minutes later and I hand her my bottle of water.
