My eyes shoot open. My heart is beating as fast as ever, and I feel tears on my face, as well as sweat. I turn in my bed, so that I'm facing Ben. His arm is wrapped tightly around my waist, and he is fast asleep. At my movement, he snorts and wakes up. "You okay?.." He murmurs. "Yeah... I must have had a bad dream..." I reply. I yawn and smile at him, and I peck his lips before I lay my head back down on the pillow. He hugs me to him and gently presses his lips to mine. I wrap my arms around his neck, adjusting the wedding band on my finger. I pull away and look at him. He's so cute when he's tired.
"I love you Margaret..." He says.
"I love you too Ben..." I reply.
