Is this cliché true?

Can and I celebrated our 13th Wedding Anniversary with family and friends, a grand feast, exuberant fanfare and spectacular fireworks!
My life is full, complete, perfect, çok harika, and as he says it "baya baya iyi" !!!
I'm the girl who has it all : a loving and close-knit family with parents, sister and friends, our kids, our home, our agency, our careers, a can't-live-without-me-family of my own, and die-for-each-other-every-single-moment craving, passion, lust and love for my man and soulmate Can, my Jaan, Divit!
I have everything that I need, want and ever desired in life.... and I am incandescently happy!
After all our guests have left, the children had fallen asleep after partying too much, we carry them to their beds, tuck them in and kiss them goodnight!
...
Our home is usually only quiet at nights and we walk holding hands to our bedroom. Suddenly he lifts me, cradles me in his arms and starts kissing me passionately! Something about that kiss reminded me of our wedding night from all those years ago.... and the need, want and energy between us is more intense than ever! He blows my mind, body and soul to smithereens... I'm ecstatically shattered and created anew every time he makes love!
I can read him, crystal clear, like a book, but this night something is different, he's more desperate, urgent and trying to prove something. Of course, I let him be him! In that moment, I stay present, relish his passion and everything that he has to share and we reaffirm our love for each other over and over and over again!
...
As the night progresses to dawn, I'm wrapped in him but unable to sleep. My gut instinct is telling me that he's trying to tell me something that I don't already know! My first thought runs to "Is it a goodbye?". The abject panic and fear I feel in that moment is debilitating, paralyses me in bed, tears are pouring involuntarily and I'm unable to move or breathe.
Can, even while asleep, is tuned to what is happening with me. My sudden stiffness, lack of warmth, or may be I actually stopped breathing, wakes him up and he looks into my eyes. As he sees the tears, he's fully awake to me and tries to pull me even closer to himself, all the while asking, "My Love, what's wrong? Are you okay?" .... kisses..... "What's wrong Love?" ....kisses.... Hearing his concerned and worry-laden voice relaxes me a bit and I formulate a response "I'm okay... can you get me some water?"
