We could have a life, us two.. (Completed)

Like a dream

Eleanor opened her eyes feeling bliss beyond belief. It was dark probably the middle of the night there was only light coming from the fireplace. Hearing the crackling sound of the fire she was still in Sweeney's embrace on the settee her small body resting onto his, his hand was holding hers making her heart melt even more, his other resting on her back supporting her, a little blanket over their naked bodies she didn't have it cold with the fireplace that was lit holding them warm and smiled feeling extreemly peaceful. He kissed the tip of her nose that's when she realised he wasn't sleeping.

"You didn't sleep?" Yawning to her hand she asked when she saw he had the same peaceful expression on his face. "Watched you, you needed to sleep" he kissed her forehead this time. Looking at her angelic face admiringly he didn't need to sleep, now he knew what she felt all those years when she was madly in love and did everything for him. Now he was the one in her place doing everything for her to make her happy although he couldn't quite understand her moods lately maybe it was Toby's horrible death, all those sudden changes, dangerous situation they were in and his behavior all together even though he was changing for her, she needed a loving caring husband and it was something he wanted too.

A week now they were moved in there new home, she had been bussy cleaning the whole house, all rooms and every corner making it as clean as possible even washing the curtains and every cloth she possible could find in the house. She asked him to fix things in the house so he could be bussy with that now before he got work. So he fixed a door, a couple of cupboards and the back porch railing. He wouldn't have adjusted for anyone but he obeyed for making her feel good knowing that something bothered her even though he had been annoyed with her for that he only saw her for dinner, she was scrubbing everywhere to clean he thought she was going to scrub a hole somewhere and when he said it was enough she said spic and span was her moto.

He just wanted time for them before they get into the rush of their new life yet she couldn't sit for a couple of minits. This was something new they never had shared a house just the two of them back in Londen there always was someone in her establishment. It ofcourse was difficult sometimes being toghether day and night working on each others nerves but the two of them started from the beginning, knowing each other from the start, learning more things about each other. It was not going to be easy and especialy him trying to adapt to a new life but it was a start and seeing her just like this resting made him smile. He was happy to have this time for their own.

She felt buterflies in her stomach thinking about him watching her the entire time. Raising her hand up she stroked his beard.
Knowing now why he figthed for her to live, stay alive why he didn't let her die it was beceause he loved her or started to love. She knew he wanted to hear the words from her wanted to hear she loves him. But she couldn't being afraid something bad would happen afterwards so she just wasn't ready to say it yet.

"You love it don't you?" He asks reffering to his beard. She could see the grey hair between the black. Behind that stern look of him lay the Benjamin he once was and who was slowly coming through.

"It suits you although I prefferer you without, it tickles when you kiss me down there" she started to chuckle shyly burriyng her face in his chest. He laughed with her and when she raised her head to look at his face he saw her pink cheeks his hand shifted to her breast that lay on his torso and started massaging.

She gave little whimper as he played with her nipple. "Still hurting?" he could see the marks he had left, her breast and chest were bruised thanks to him she had hickeys al over her upper body, luckily he had been smart and she hadn't none on her neck. Not for 15 years but they definnitly had made up for the days they promised to wait until marriage. "Just sensitive" she answers him corfirming his question. "Sorry" he says pursing his lips apologeticaly. He enjoyed this just the two of them sadly he had to look for work leaving their love nest even he didn't want to. Soon they would run out of their money.
