Title: Coffee With Death

Word Count: 206


I find the Grim Reaper making coffee in my kitchen.

"Don't freak out," he said, pouring me a cup.

The smell of the coffee wafts in the air, signaling that it is already morning.

Wrapped only in my blanket that felt cold against my bare skin, I stand in the doorway to my kitchen with a goofy smile on my face as I look at the man that I love.

He looks so out of place in my old, small kitchen. Him being six feet tall looked like he is cramped inside a tiny box, yet, the simple thought that he is here with me, and remembering that we shared a night together made my heart feel warm.

"Why would I freak out?" Even I can hear the joy in my voice. "I like that you made me coffee."

I take the warm cup from him as I stand on my toes and plant a small kiss at the tip of his nose. He smiles at me lovingly.

"Thank you," I utter, looking into his caramel colored eyes.

Everyone knows him as death, but to me, he is the one who brought color to my life.
