Garrett POV
I run the tip of my finger up her neck and lean in to kiss her again. She smiles when I break away. It's surprising how comfortable I've felt being with her all these years. It's wonderful. What we share is amazing.
She runs her fingers along my collar bone, breaking my train of thought. I poke her belly and she giggles a little before pulling herself against me, comfortably. I hold onto her by her hip and wrap my other arm around her shoulders, taking her in my embrace.
"I love you so much," I say with the words slipping off my tongue with emotion.
She kisses my neck and replies, "I love you more!"
Laughing, I stroke her hair and close my eyes. I focus on her elegant breathing. Engulfed by the silence, I notice Lilly slipping from consciousness.
I smile and kiss her on the forehead. She's adorable when she's sleeping, I think to myself.
"Goodnight, love. Enjoy your sleep. I'll wake with you in the morning."
She nudges me in her sleep and I try not to laugh at how cute she is. I stay up most of the night, listening to her sleep so beautifully.
Finally, I drift off to sleep hoping for a great day tomorrow...
