-It's a quiet night in January, year 2029-

Terra blinks tiredly as Brendon rolls over in his sleep, his arm drooping lazily over  Terra's stomach.

"Tear," Brendon mumbles. Terra smiles endearingly. Sometimes Brendon talked in his sleep. It was nothing but adorable.

"hmm?" She responds even though her husband can't hear her.

"Love you, Tear. Love you lots."

Terra stops fighting the smile that keeps inching its way onto her face. "I love you too, BB."

Brendon is quiet for several minutes as Terra strokes his curls softly and Terra thinks he might be done talking. And since it's three in the morning, Terra decides that she should probably get some sleep as well.

"Terra?" Brendon says, his voice loud in comparison to the tranquillity of the night.

Terra sighs. "Yes, B?"

"Please don't let me go ever again," Brendon whispers, and it's almost a pleading. Terra knows that Brendon's been insecure about himself ever since that day in June, nearly fifteen years ago. And Terra tries her hardest to fix him up, to heal his scars, but sometimes there was nothing that could be done.

But. But, She loves Brendon more than she's loved anyone in her life. 

"Never," She whispers into the shell of Brendon's ear. She plants a light kiss on Brendon's cheek and crawls back under the covers.
