Love Songs in the Rain

My Mountain

(Amelia's POV)

It has been about two weeks since the big fight between Link and his father. Eric keeps calling, but Link just denies the call. I am a little worried about Link because he has been really quiet and kind of distant since that fight. I have been giving him space, but I don't know if I should keep doing that.

It's not like he has gone completely silent, but he laughs less. When we were planning the wedding we decided not to have sex for a month before the wedding. I doubt that even if we hadn't made that decision that we would be having sex right now. I decided that today was the day that I am going to talk to him.

He was sitting on the couch with Scout asleep on his chest, watching some baseball. I went to go sit by him and he flashed me a smile. He adjusted Scout so he could put an arm around me and I cuddled into his chest. The even beating of his heart and breathing calmed me.

Amelia- "I've missed this. I feel like things have been a little weird between us since a few weeks ago."

He took a deep breath in and released it slowly.

Link- "Yeah I know. And I'm sorry if I have been kind of distant. I just needed some time to process. I'm not angry. I think I have processed it and I still feel as confident in my decision as I did when I made it. Protecting you and Scout is my priority."

I started tearing up because I have been holding in so much stress and worry that it feels good for everything to be alright. More tears keep falling and Link holds me tightly to him as I cry into his chest.

Link- "It's okay. Just let it all out. Everything is going to be fine. We will get married. This is a bump in the road we didn't expect, but we are dealing with it."

Amelia- "I just hate what's happening. I feel like ever since you met me all you have been doing is compromising to make me happy, and I hate it. I don't want you to feel trapped."

Link- "I don't feel trapped. Any compromise I have made was because I felt like it was the right decision. I am so happy that I got the chance to be a father and a husband. I love you and Scout and that won't change. My goal in life is to give you and Scout the life you deserve. And while doing that I get the life I deserve too. I love you, Amelia. That won't change. No matter who stands in our way."

I pick up my head and look Link in the eye. He is perfectly calm. He always is. He will always be my big, calm mountain.

Amelia- "I love you too."

I give him a small, reassuring kiss. I love my family. And I can't believe we only have two more weeks until we get married.
