Waking up next to her, was everything he'd ever wanted. Watching her sleep, as the early sun peeks through the window.
He watches her breathe in and out, while she lays on her stomach, and her left hand sat in front of her face. He just wanted to hold her, never did he ever think this moment would happen.
She awakens, but does not open her eyes, as though she felt his eyes on her. She slowly opens them. Sensitive to the light shining through the window, she squints.
Their eyes connect, as she gave him a soft smile. He looks beautiful, watching her. He chuckles, and pulls her close to his chest.
Laying there, she felt safe in his big arms. Listening to his heartbeat, was her most favorite thing.
He gets up, interrupting her from falling back asleep, she looks confused. He moves her legs around his waist and lays on top of her small body.
He lays his head onto her chest, as he listens to her heartbeat. She runs her fingers through his hair, and smiles as he squeezes her gently.
Once again, they both fall back asleep, like they've never woken up. It was easy for them fall in such slumber, because they've always felt safe together.
