6 am,

she tries to shuffle away from your grasp.

But you feel her shift and pull her closer to your chest.

She muffles her laugh as she tries the second time after a slight pause, 

her back is against your chest, your arm wrapped around her holding on to her like a child does with their favorite teddy bear that they couldn't sleep without.

She tries once more, that's when you flip her around.

Face to face, 

your lips graze hers and your grip tightens.

"Good morning."

She loved mornings like this.
