"Irene?" You said as you tapped your girlfriend's arm. "Irene, wake up."

She opened her eyes and looked around the room to see that it was dark, the only glimpse of light coming from the streetlight outside.

"I'm sorry I woke you but I can't sleep."

She had a feeling that you'd feel restless sooner or later because you've been sick for the last few days and have spent a lot of time sleeping.

Now that you're starting to feel a little better, you're struggling to get any sleep at all due to your sleep schedule being so off.

Irene reached for your hand and held it in yours before yawning and then looking at you lovingly.

"I'm sorry, angel. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

You shrugged your shoulders.

"I guess I just felt a little anxious being wide awake."

"That's understandable." She said before brushing her thumb across your knuckles. "How about you close your eyes and I'll sing to you?"

The thought alone made you melt.

Irene knows that her voice brings a lot of people a sense of comfort and security and it especially does that for you.

She pulled you into her arms and your eyes slipped shut before you asked,

"What song will you sing me?"

"You'll see."

She left a few kisses near your ear before she began to sing one of your favorite songs.

"No longer able to hide this thrilling feeling. Yeah, you're my favorite. So I'm trying to pull back the emotions I pushed away."

Calling Me Back, one of your favorite songs from her solo album.

"Keep calling me, baby. You're different, why, why. You melt the icy air, you entered my world and it feels more natural. I told you it would turn out like this. Now everything is becoming clearer. Even the language from the deepest parts is being revealed, babe,"

Her voice was so soft and so pretty and there was no better feeling than getting to hear her sing this for you, only you.

"Even if I try to hide it, you're calling me, calling me back. Calling me, calling me back. Your presence grows even clearer, it makes me turn back again. Calling me, calling me back. I'm becoming more honest."

You were starting to drift off to sleep.

With her hand in yours and her voice in your ear, you felt so content and so happy.

You love Irene more than anything and you've always felt so lucky that you get to share these moments with her.

There aren't any words to express just how much she means to you and you swear, until the day you die, you'll always remind her how much you love her and her beautiful voice.

"Calling me up in the morning, every day starts to look different. Are you afraid of these uncontrollable feelings? Might grow too strong, oh? But you already know."

Your breathing became a little slower as you fell asleep in her arms, to her comforting voice.

All of your anxiety and fears about possibly not being able to fall asleep were long gone now because you were sleeping soundly, all thanks to her.

"The things I want have always been in my hands. I've never once lost my pride, my ego. I hold it in one hand, and in the other, I'll have you." She sang softly before kissing your temple.

She listened to you breathe and watched you sleep as her heart filled with love.

"Sweet dreams, my love. I love you very much."

She put her head on yours and closed her eyes before falling asleep too, happy that you're finally resting, hoping you'll be fully recovered soon.
