Love is not enough

There was a part of me that knew it wouldn't end with me and you

Present:

Simon's Pov:

"What do you mean? You will be happy again Adele." I said confused.

"How without my baby?" She cried.

I picked her up and began to walk towards a tree, I placed her on the ground and sat beside her.

"How will we end up?" She asked.

"Loving each other more day by day, like we used to do before. I promise sunshine." I kissed her temple.

"Why don't you want to be happy again?" I asked her.

"I can't stand the idea of me living a normal life when my baby is somewhere watching me, it's like I don't care about all that happened." She said.

"You can't be like this for ever Del, it's normal to be deeply sad but think about something: Would your child be happy seeing you like this?" I said.

She didn't reply, she only looked at the grass.

"Answer me baby" I gently said and brushed her hair away from her face tucking it behind her ears.

"No, it probably wouldn't." She said in a low tone.

"Exactly, so don't feel guilty. Obviously you're not happy but you have to fight to have your life back, alright?" I caressed her hair.

"I can't do it on my own Simon" she sobbed and climbed on my lap.

"That's why I'm here" I kissed her cheek.

"I'm here for you as well, don't forget that." She cupped my face.

"Thank you" I said and she smiled.

We kissed under the tree as we were in a Hollywood movie, I felt like a teenager again.

She held my neck and deepened the kiss, I held her waist tight but yet gentle.

I could feel our tears mixing together, just like our hearts.

We cried and sobbed but our lips stayed connected, we were sharing our pain with each other.

We did that for about fifteen minutes until she went on top of me and cuddled on my chest, while her legs were locked around my waist.

"Snuggles" I said and giggled a bit remembering all the time when she said that to me.

"You are the best cuddler of all." She sadly smiled.

After some minutes she closed her eyes but I felt my shirt getting wet.

"You know, when we first met, four years ago on that bench, just by chatting you gave me hope in love. I was afraid of returning to love, especially after a very short time from my previous relationship.

I had started to stop believing in love before I met you.
I saw the light in your eyes that was somehow showing me the way. My life changed when I became a dad, my life became filled with responsibilities, my priorities are no longer the same.

Now my whole world revolves around that little guy, I'm happy like this. When you told me you were pregnant I was over the moon, I couldn't wait for the family to expand.

Right now we find ourselves crying because our little big dream has been broken. Evidently it had to happen, but I'll tell you one thing, don't ever feel guilty to show your beautiful smile, don't stop being happy because remember, a happy and carefree mother, will raise a happy and carefree child."

"Don't give up on me, please promise me." She said with tears in her eyes.

"Never baby" I hugged her.
