I didn't open my eyes when I first woke up, I was still too tired. I try to make it convincing that I'm asleep as I roll towards him. But Matt's not there. I open an eye, the bed's empty other than me and the white and grey sheets are a mess. I sit up and rub my eyes, not wanting to get up but knowing I should find him.
It's just then that the bed sinks behind me. I turn to see Matt and he tackles me. He kisses my lips and neck and I push him off.
"Can we go back to sleep? I'm too tired." I say and close my eyes. He pulls me to him and I'm in a ball. I rest my head against his collarbone and he puts his chin on the top of my head.
"You're like a cat, Gracie. You're sweet and easy but always sleeping."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." I say against his shirt. He runs his fingers through my hair.
"I have to go to work." He says after five seconds of silence.
"Call Foggy and tell him you hurt your back last night, on patrol." I say, my eyes still closed. He shifts and lays on his back.
I lay on top of him.
"It's partly true. You hurt your back on patrol of me." I say. My eyes are open now. He smiles in amusement.
"I should go." He says and sits up, I'm in his lap and he pulls me off and stands. He goes to his closet.
"I love you Gracie."
"I love you too Matt, but you push yourself to hard." I say. He shifts through the closet blindly. I stand and pick a suit out for him. He changes.
"You push too little." He says honestly.
"Ouch. I hate you." I say jokingly. He kisses my forehead and I hand him his cane.
"Hate you too baby." He says and leaves. I smile to myself. I love that man.
