JOHNS POV
I slowly gained consciousness as the warm sun beamed through the curtain of the room and onto my face. It took a moment for the events of yesterday to kick in but when they did I quickly looked down into my arms.. happy to finally see katy there instead of Olivia. She was curled up against my chest, her raven hair sprawled around the mattress, making her look even more angelic than normal. I could feel cool air softly blow against my neck where katy was breathing and smiled remembering how much I missed these little details about her when I would always wake up before her. I didn't mind though, it just gave me more time to admire her while I held her in silence.
I placed my hand on her lower back inching my way underneath her shirt where I smoothed my hand over her warm skin. I began to rub up and down her back, gently as not to wake her, and traced patterns on her back. I still couldn't believe how everything had worked out for us, but honestly I think it just proves that we're meant to be. Katy is the only woman I've ever wanted to be with forever, or start a family with, and that to me is a sign from the start. Sure, I've dated other people and told them "I love you," but I realized that I never really meant it. Because now I know what it truly means to love someone and it doesn't even compare to anyone I've been with. Even Olivia. The thought of marriage never even entered my mind with her.. or any other woman for that matter. I always knew that they would end in the long run but not this one.. I wasn't letting this girl get away. Not for anything.
"I love you." I mumbled quietly against her forehead before placing a soft kiss there. I hadn't meant to say that out loud but my emotions just got the best of me. I knew she wasn't awake yet... or so I thought until I heard the tiniest giggle escape from below me.
"I didn't know you were awake baby." I chuckled leaning down to kiss her soft lips that I never seem to get enough of, her eyes were still shut but I knew she was awake by the way she smiled at me.
"I wanted to lie here with you longer, and you were rubbing my back." She quietly laughed again snuggling herself into me more. I picked up on her hint and began smoothing my hand up and down her back once again.
"We have to leave today.." She whined against my chest, finally opening her eyes to look up at me. She pouted her bottom lip, sad that we had to leave such a wonderful place now that we were finally officially back together.
"I know but I'm kind of glad to go back home... with you." I smiled cheekily causing her to crinkle her nose as she giggled.
"I can't wait plus I've missed moose so much." She pouted, "I hope he remembers me"
"Don't worry I think moose missed you just as much as I did. He kept looking for you... when you left." I trailed off, trying to put that memory behind me and move forward. He truly did miss her though. "And he absolutely hated Olivia." I chuckled at the memory of him cornering her when she came over for the first time. I don't think he liked the idea of her being around rather than katy.. they formed this emotional bond that he never quite got over.
"awh, my baby! I can't wait to see him." She smiled slowly sitting up and tossing the covers off of her legs. "but in other news I need to shower.. and no you can't join" she added when she saw me start to open my mouth but I immediately closed it and pouted when she had crushed all of my dreams.
I smiled to myself, finally happy with my life. Completely content. I had Katy and everything else would just fall into place because of that one person. She made my world go round, and I could never truly express to her what she meant to me. I know she probably gets annoyed with me saying I love you 200 times a day but honestly I feel like I don't tell her enough. I feel like she should be told every second of every hour.
