I wake up at movement and when I turn my head I see Danny getting out of the bed, I watch his back muscles move as he moves around. he turns and when he sees I'm awake he smiles at me
"morning beautiful" he gives me a smile as he walks over and gives me a kiss.
"good morning" I smile back at him, getting up and walking to the bathroom to get ready for the morning. I brush my teeth and hair, put on some light makeup and walk back to the bedroom to get dress. I walk down stairs into the kitchen and see Danny sitting at the island eating some breakfast. I grab a banana and sit down beside him.
"I have to go today but ill be back for dinner" he says before taking another bite of his pancake.
I smile and nod, Danny is always super busy. with his job and all. so he's gone most days but i don't mind, its the nights I enjoy the best. I mean nothing like last night but the nights where we stay up and just talk until one of us falls asleep. i look over at Danny and smile at him, he looks over and smiles back.
"what's got you so happy?" he asks, looking me up and down
"oh nothing, just thinking about how much I love you" he laughs and kisses my cheek
"I love you to April" my smile widens and I kiss him, it doesn't take long for him to start kissing me back.
"whoa, keep it PG in here-" I break from the kiss and see my dad standing at the end of the island covering his eyes with his hands "- my virgin eyes cant take this"
"dad your not a virgin" I laugh as he peaks though his hands and uncover his eyes once he sees that were not kissing anymore. he walks to the cupboard and grabs a cup
"says who!" he walks over to the coffee machine, making some coffee.
"I am living proof that you aren't" he hold his coffee in his hands as he leans back against the counter.
"no your not, the stork brought you here. so yes I am still a virgin" he said with a serious face before taking a sip of his coffee, I laugh and shake my head.
"ok dad, what ever you say" he gets up and messes up the hair at the top of my head as he walks by me, I give a playful glare as I try to fix it which makes him laugh
as he walks back out of the kitchen. I look over at Danny and see him smiling
"I didn't know you were a baby of a bird" I laugh
"oh please, I'm already irresistible as it is. telling you my secret would drive you mad from all the love for me" he laughs loudly and kisses me again before getting up.
"yeah your right but I got to head out, see you later tonight" he starts walking to the front door
"byeee" I yell before I hear the front door close. I finish my banana then walk up stairs to my room, jump on my bed and grab my favorite book. I got so sucked into my own world that I didn't noticed the day flying by, I snap back to reality when I hear my door open. Danny walks in with a smile, he jumps on the bed before rolling over and snuggling into my side.
"read to me?" was all he said as he wrapped his arm around me. I smile as I start reading out loud, listening to his deep breaths. its times like these that I wish would last forever, just me and Danny forever, it was always just us even when we were kids and its still just me and him. he's the best thing that ever happened to me, he always makes me happy no matter how sad I am. I turn and wrap my arms around his head as he buries it in my chest, only letting go when I needed to flip the page. About twenty minutes later I hear his breaths are slow and deep, meaning he's asleep so I close the book and it on the nightstand before I turn of the light and wrap my arms around Danny again, drifting off to sleep. I wake up in the middle of the night to Danny coming out of the bathroom, he walks up to the bed and sees me awake
"did I wake you up? sorry" I smile at him and pat the bed beside me, he lays down and I put my head on his chest as I wrap my arms around his torso.
"I can't wait" I say as he starts playing with my hair and I close my eyes, enjoying the feeling.
"cant wait for what?"
"our future-" I look up at him "-what do you see when you imagine our future?" he starts playing with my hair again as he look out my window, I follow suit and see the night sky full of stars like thousands of fire flies lighting up the world.
"I see us living in a house together, maybe a few kids and just complete and utterly happy"
"it sounds perfect" I say as I smile, my attention goes back to the night sky. the moon is so big, like if I reach out I could touch it and the stars so bright to glow against the dark sky. everyone has stars, but they are not the same things for different people. for some, who are travelers, the stars are guides. for others they are no more then little lights in the sky. for others, who are scholars, they are problems. but for me the stars are these late nights with Danny, I can almost hear our laughter in them, so it is as if all the stars are laughing when I look up at them. I look over at Danny,
"will you tame me?" he looks at me confused
"tame you?"
"yeah. if you tame me, then we shall need each other. to me, you will be unique in all the world. to you, I shall be unique in all the world" I feel his chest vibrate as he laughs
"then I shall tame you. to me, you shall be unique in all the world April" he says, quoting my words. I smile and close my eyes, drifting off to sleep.
