I'm standing on the balcony watching the sunset, the orange and red coloured sky is so relaxing, the air is so cool after a long hot summer day.

I love and hate this season.

Suddenly I feel soft and strong arms around my bare waist.

1 I'm wearing a crop top and shorts since it was hot today.

"Hey love" I hear her husky but smooth voice. Belonging to my one and only wife Alex.

"Hey baby" I put my hands on her arms to feel her body close to me even more. I love feeling her close to me. Her scent is intoxicating, I love it.

"What are you doing lovey?" Her voice, lovely and heavenly, rings in my ears.
"Just enjoying the sunset, it's calming for some reason. I like it."

I turn to face her. Her hair is tied in a high ponytail, it's so long I love playing with it and braiding it all the time. I look in her blue eyes, as the sun is making them brighten and giving them more colour. I could just stare at them all day. She towers over me, I always forget how tall she is.

"But I love looking at you more." She smiles, that smile it gives me butterflies everytime I see it. This women has no idea what she does to me.

I close my eyes as I lean in for a kiss. As her lips meet mine, I feel like I'm on cloud 9, I feel fireworks, I feel like I'm flying. I put my arms around her neck to pull her close, she does the same with my waist. Our lips are in sync with each other, like moving to the beat of the music. I never want this to end. Her kisses are always magical, I can't explain it, but she does something to me, she makes me happy.

I break the kiss, looking into her lovely blue eyes I pull her into a hug. Feeling her body close to mine, closing my eyes I can't help but think that we've been together for over 8 years now. She never fails to make me laugh, she gives me butterflies and makes me blush uncontrollably.

" I love you my starlight"

" I love you more my beautiful angel" she says kissing the top of my head.
With her arms me I feel safe, secured and at home, I'm home.
She's my everything.
I will and always love her unconditionally.
