My Darling,
          
          You don’t check under your bed at night. You should.
          
          I hear your breathing, slow and steady as you drift into sleep. I match it, inhale for inhale. If I reached up, I could touch you. But I won’t. Not yet.
          
          You move in your sleep sometimes. Do you ever wake up with a feeling that you weren’t quite alone? That the air felt different? That was me.
          
          Maybe tonight, you’ll look. Maybe tonight, our eyes will finally meet.
          
          I can’t wait.
          
          Waiting for you,
          Me.
