I held her for who knows how long that night. Her face was firmly pressed against my right breast, softly snoring into it whilst she had her arms wrapped around me. I could feel her hands rest along my back, giving a slight shiver up my spine. I'm sure she felt it because she held me tighter. My cheek was against the top of her head as we held in this tangled embrace. It was moments like this that made me not want to let go, that made me want to run away and take her with me and with Bjiorn and Ama. We could live happily together, I could grow flowers and herbs to practice my magic and alchemy and she could raise animals. We could build our little home near the edge of a cliff where we could see the ocean and just land for miles and miles that it would take days to get to the next village. We could grow our own food, and sleep like this every night. I felt myself smile wide at just the thought of it and then it dimmed when reality set in once more. I brushed her long, thick dark hair with my fingers as I struggled not to let myself cry. As if that could ever happen now. [The story is not perfect, please mind grammatical errors]

As I stare at myself in the mirror, I don't even recognize the reflection. I'm a married woman, and I can't get over that. I'm only wearing red lace underwear at the moment. I wear sexy panties and bras now because I have someone who's seeing them every day other than myself. Does he wear special boxers...? I'm not ready to think about Silas that way yet. It is still too weird. I am a little surprised that I haven't had a meltdown yet. I've never had a panic attack before, but my life has been turned upside-down. I have a pretty damn good excuse to have one. Everyone is probably expecting that I will. They may even be surprised that I haven't yet. Eight years erased... Eight years to learn... I stare at my reflection in the mirror. I'm still me... just older. I rub lotion into my face, examining it closely. Still me. Same blue eyes. Same shallow dimples in my cheeks. Same lips that cover straight teeth that my parents paid a lot of money for. I step back and take in my body. A little curvier then I remember, but not by much. I guess with marriage comes comfort weight. My hair is the same blonde, just longer. How odd to have everything the same... yet so different. Completed July of 2019
