  The weeks flew by and the couple's bond was growing stronger with every day. They were inseparable. Their friends got used to the fact, that wherever Bob was, Corrina was for sure with him and the other way around. They even considered moving in together, but decided to wait a bit more. Bob found a good job. Where? Well, at the same antique store, as his love. Now he wasn't only living from the money he earned, every now and then, while playing at Basket Houses, but also from the fixed salary, that actually wasn't that bad. That also meant, that they were able to see each other, even at work. It seemed that everything was splendid and couldn't get any worse, until a one very cold and unpleasant Sunday morning...

   She opened her eyes. The room was rather gloomy and she didn't feel like getting up. She looked to her left, at the boy, sleeping next to her. He was laying flat on his stomach, had his arm draped over her waist and was facing her. He was breathing softly, fast asleep. Last night, they were at one of the Basked Houses, where Bob performed. He had already written a few wonderful songs and decided to perform his own works, not only traditional folk songs. She was very excited to hear him. The concert was a success. The audience loved him and she felt that he was gonna be great in the future. After the performance, they went to her flat. They talked and kissed for a few hours, until dawn. He wanted to go back to his place, but she said, she won't let him. They didn't do anything inappropriate. They just laid down in their underwear, on her bed and went to sleep. She still wanted him and he felt the same about her, but they decided to wait, at least a few months.

   She delicately touched his face and ran her fingers through his locks. His eyelids fluttered and opened, to reveal his beautiful, blue eyes. He smiled and pulled her closer to himself. He burried his face in the crook of her neck and kissed her warm skin.

-Hello, beautiful- he murmured into her ear.

He licked the shell of her ear and she shuddered.

-Hi, baby- he whispered, out of breath.

He laughed, quietly and kissed her neck, running his hands around her sides and stomach. She moaned and burried her hands in his hair.

   After a while, he lifted his head and looked her straight in the eye. His two sea depths were full of love, that was pouring down on her face, body, mind and soul. He looked at her, as if she was the most beautiful thing in the world and the only one, worth his feelings. She loved that look. She dreamed about it every night, every day. She looked up at him and her restless forests held the same amount of love for him. Love that will never die. He kissed her. Slowly, lovingly. Letting her know, they had all the time in the world, for themselves. She ran her hands up and down his bare back, wanting to feel his hot skin, under her fingers.

   Suddenly, a telephone started to ring. They broke the kiss and she groaned. He smiled.

-I can take it- he said and started to get up.

-No, babe- she said and got up. -I'll take it, you go make us breakfast.

She kissed his cheek and went to the hall. He followed her, to go to the kitchen, but changed his mind and wrapped his arms around her, from behind, kissing her nape.

-Yes?- she picked up the phone.

She paused, listening to the voice on the other side.

-Speakin'- she answered.

-What?!- she nearly jumped, causing Bob, to look at her, worriedly.

-How is he?

-Which hospital?

-All right, I'm on my way- she hung up and turned around, facing his lover.

-What is it?- he asked, cupping her face.
