Truly Madly Deeply
As much as he loves to sleep in, he can’t seem to help himself come the mornings after nights shared with you – his body forcing him awake at the first sound of you rustling the sheets beside him. He’d lay on his side and stare down at you snuggled into him, probably with a painfully love-sick look on his face as he admired your sleeping form, reminiscing on how the two of you had come to be.
He’d been the one to pursue you in the beginning, but nothing could have prepared him for the trance he’d end up in. He’s not entirely sure how you managed it, but you’d bulldozed past every one of the guards he’d put around his heart and completely changed the connotation of that four-letter word he’d grown to despise.
He found himself plotting different ways to keep that world-altering smile on your face – ways to keep you on your toes and looking forward to your next encounter with him.
Breakfast in bed, surprise lunch dates, impromptu letters or messages reminding you just how important you were to him. He’d begun paying extra attention to the things you liked, noting which things your eyes lingered on in shops or that you pointed out to him.
All of this, for you.
Never once did he question if it were all worth it – the efforts, the costs, the time – because he knew once you smiled up at him and gave him that look, the one that made time itself stand still, he would feel the fruits of his labor.
He prayed this feeling would last forever, though he would never let his worry show, always playing the calm, cool, and collected person you’d grown to love him for being.
But you always saw through his facade, saw the glimmer of doubt that crept in on rare occasions, and always calmed the storm in his mind the same way.
“I love you,” you’d breathe softly as you raised your hand to his cheek, pulling his face down to yours. He’d savor the soft press of your lips to his before meeting your eyes, his cheek pressing into your touch as he relished in the reassurance.
“Always?”
“Always.”
