Your husband, Hercules Mulligan, was heading off to war.
You didn't like the thought of him leaving, but you hated the idea of him staying instead of doing what he wanted.
Currently, you were lying in bed beside him, your face buried in his warm shirt. You pulled yourself closer to Herc, your eyes tearing up and your lips quivering. You couldn't be alone.
Not for..however long it would take him.
You didn't even KNOW how long it'd be before you saw him again...

Your body trembled, causing the sleeping Mulligan to wrap his arms around you. You pulled closer in his embrace, tears slowly running down your face. You had two weeks left with your husband. Terrible thoughts ran through your mind as you tried to sleep.

What if he finds someone else?

What if he cheats on me?

What if he..dies...?

The tears continued, waking Hercules. He looked at you, squinting in the dark. "Babe...What time is it..?"
"....2:30.."
Hercules hugged you against him, kissing your forehead.
"What's wrong, gorgeous?" He wiped the tears from your face.
You shook your head, knowing that speaking would make you cry more.
Hercules pulled you on top of him, looking into your eyes and smiling gently.
"Babe?"
You curled up on his warm body. A normal man would groan at the body on top of him, but Hercules was no normal man. He was SUPA-strong.
You kisses him softly, laying your head on his chest as tears streamed down your face. You hated doing this to him. You felt like you were guilt-tripping him into staying, but that wasn't it. You wanted him to stay, but you also wanted him to do what he wanted.

Mulligan pulled the blanket over the two of you, kissing your forehead.
"Just sleep, baby. We'll talk in the morning, lovely."
You'll fell asleep in his warm embrace.

The next morning, you woke up to find yourself on your husband's chest. You smiled a little, kissing his jaw softly before getting up to fix breakfast.
Just as you began moving, a pair of arms wrapped around you.
Hercules began shaking.
He was having a nightmare.
You peppered him with kisses, holding him close to let him know that everything was okay. His eyes popped open, his lips smirking.
"I love your kisses, gorgeous." You blushed, hugging the love of your live. "I love yours, too."
Hercules smiled, giving you an Eskimo kiss. (For those who don't know what an Eskimo kiss is, it's when you rub noses.)
You giggled, cuddling him.
He sighed, rubbing your hair. "I'm gonna miss mornings like this, babe..."
You rested your head on his chest, sighing. "Yeah... Me too... I don't know how I'm going to make it without you.."
Mulligan kissed you softly . "Without me? I don't know if I'm GOING to be able to make it without you..." He frowned a little, wrapping arms tighter around you. "I wish I could come with you..."
Mulligan kissed your head. "Me too, gorgeous... It's too dangerous,though... I can't bear thinking about you..." He stopped, unable to finish. He kissed you softly.

"I'll always write. Every chance I get, I'll be writing."
"As soon as you write, I'll write back, Herc."
His smiled, turning on his side, holding you against them.
"Let's go back to sleep, lovely."
You smiled, not responding.
You soon heard snoring, and felt the pressure of a resting Hercules on your head. 
"I love you."
"I love you too."
You fell asleep.
