"I told you I'm fine!" "I know you're not!" "Stop asking if I'm okay!" "Okay, are you fine?"
"Stop asking! I try my best to hide my emotions from you, but you keep asking!" "Julie I-" "no I should be sorry." "Why?" "For annoying you."
Saige caressed my cheek and spoke up, "you've never annoyed me, from your stupid jokes to your mental breakdowns, I will always love you." My eyes teared up, she was not like my dad, she was always there for me.
My eyes slipped shut as we kissed passionately, it was the most wonderful feeling in my life. It felt like I was flying, like there was nothing else in the world except her. We both parted for air and I hugged her, I hugged her like my life depended on it.
And it did. If it weren't for her, I would have been long gone. "Hey honey what are you writing about?" "Oh, about us," I replied showing her what I wrote. Saige kissed me on the cheek and went back to cleaning up.
I felt a popping sensation and a slow trickle of water. "My water broke!"

"Let's name her Sadie." "Okay," Saige replied nonchalantly looking softly at the our baby and held my hand as I held the baby in my arms.
At that moment I knew I was never truly alone.
