I wake up, sunlight streaming in through the window, and I look over to see them still sleeping. I can't help but think how perfect Eli looks, long limbs spread out, dark curly hair a giant beautiful mess, the sun lighting up their skin, highlighting their stretch marks and scars, making them look like the angel they are.
I look at the time and sigh, knowing that we'll have to get going soon. My fingers dance across their arm and I see them smile. "Good morning, sunshine," I whisper.
They open their bright amber eyes and they reach for my hand. "Good morning, handsome". I blush and kiss their cheek as they giggle. "Come here," they say softly, "I have a secret for you."
I smile and inch slightly closer, "What's this secret?"
The move right up against my ear and scream "I love you, biiitch!"
I jerk back and curl up laughing, "I picked the right motherfucker to marry!"
They laugh and kiss me, and we stay like this for hours.
