«««»»»"You need to be absolutely calm when I tell you this, okay?.."
Alycia doesn't speak. She doesn't even move, and for a moment, I'm not sure if she's breathing.
Her piercing forest eyes look to mine and she furrows her eyebrows, breaking our gaze and looking to her now fumbling hands.
"He's out of jail, isn't he?..." I squeeze my arms around her body, nodding my head against the top of hers.
Alycia gasps quietly. I can feel the hitch of her breath against my neck.
"He won't touch you. Won't see you, won't even talk about you. I'm sure there's a small reason why he's out, but court is soon. Very soon. I'll keep you safe, and we'll make sure he goes to prison, okay?" I rub soothing circles on her back, sighing against her.
"Okay." Her voice cracks, breaking the silence.
"Okay.." I repeat back to her.
"Now..we've got about..forty-five minutes for sappy cuddles," I begin saying, feeling the Australian shake with giggles.
I hold her against my body as I fall forward onto my side, laying our heads on a pillow.
The brightest, forest green eyes stare into mine and I am awestruck. Their intricate design grounds me and the love and affection that lies in them only urges me to love this woman further and for as long as I can.
I tuck a strand of hair behind Alycia's ear, resting my hand on her cheek.
"Alycia.." I rub my thumb across her cheek.
"I am so..completely in love with you."
Her eyes hold a shocked expression and they become glossy. Her mouth opens in an attempt to say something but nothing comes out.
Tears spill onto her cheeks and I rush my thumbs to wipe them away.
"You don't have to say it back, or anything back, for that matter." I quietly tell her, leaning my forehead against hers. A quiet gasp escapes Alycia as I soothingly bring my hang across her cheek in gentle swipes, wiping the shed tears that begin escaping her eyes.
We lay in complete silence and for a minute, I believe I've overstepped.
"No one's ever told me that before.."
It's a shaky, quiet mumble and my ears strain to hear it. I bring my head back to look at her, gazing into her eyes. The intricacies that cross through paths of a deep pine green, lighting into an emerald as it flows into a golden yellow shimmer that surrounds her pupil shine brightly.
"You are, so deserving of those words. Not to be told them, but to be shown them." I tuck loose strands of hair behind her ear, cupping her cheek.
She closes her eyes tightly and nods, tears flowing down her cheeks in silence.
"Now..come here." I pull the Australian on top of my chest. Alycia lowers her head onto my chest, her ear laying on top of my heartbeat.
She sighs contently, wrapping her arm around me and squeezing once.
"I'm in love with you too."
I kiss the top of Alycia's head, nodding against it.
"Good. That's good. You won't get rid of me easily now." I chuckle at the joke.
"A panel..meet and greets..some amazing lunch to get with the beautiful brunette that loves me..seems like my schedule is full today." I call out, feeling Alycia giggle against me.
I rub circles on her back, smiling at the sigh that leaves her mouth.
"I've been thinking about dyeing my hair blonde....thoughts?" She says with a smirk in her voice.
"Well. I think you'd look amazing, you can totally pull off being blonde." This time I say with a smirk, squeezing her once like she did with me.

—————————————————————>A/N: Bit of a note here! Hey, hi, I'm not dead, I swear.
I've recently quit editing because of lack of motivation, and school. This is also a reason why I've had zero time to upload or even write, and I've found myself with lack of motivation with writing this as well, which is why it's so short, for which I apologize.
I do have news though..in the midst of everything, I am writing a new book! It's a slow..slow slow process haha but it's happening! I think you guys will be interested in it and hey, it's actually an original this time! If you guys want more information about it, please let me know! Please! I'm desperate for feedback haha.
I'll try to write more, and I'll do my best to balance writing the new book and this one.
The title for the new book.."The Light: Command Me" and the inspiration for the title is..wacky as heck. It involves myself writing my now favorite friend (feels like a sister to me) "NerdingAlong". Check her out! She's here on Wattpad and I seriously recommend her series "That North Carolina Summer", it is fricken AMAZING!! Please, please check it out.
