I've currently come down with a bad viral infection and it is really, really pissing me off. Good-bye to a healthy start to the new year.
Saturday
Both our consciousnesses begin to drift away to our own little worlds yet we still lay unmoved -side by side - with both our bodies entwined. He twitches subtly at first and I feel the pulse of his neck beat warmly on my left cheek. His quiet breathing; the air he exhales moves through my hair as if it were stroking me. He twitches much more obviously this time and wakes up in an upright position, breathing as though he'd been dragged to an open surface after drowning.
"What's wrong?" I ask gently, caressing his bare back with my hand,
"Just that dream again... Sorry" and he kisses my forehead.
We lay back down again and this time I'm the one to fall away; I don't know how long I must've been asleep. I feel his hand brush away the hair from my face and behind my ear, I crinkle my nose and I feel his soft lips against mine. I dare open my eyes, though, too afraid to look at his because that was when I began to realise that I'm really beginning to fall in love with this guy.
