Story: Tamed By A Knight
“Fuck, I love you.” The words barrel out of me. But they always do with him.
We’ve been together for years, but every time I look at him, or hear some cheesy line designed to make my heart beat faster, it’s like we’re back in some sleazy bar and he’s offering a joke to comfort me for the bike ride home.
The way he looks at me? Even now, when he’s seen me at my best and my worst, it’s always like the very first time. Awe-stricken and nervous, searching the recesses of his mind to find the perfect line.
I still remember ours. How could I ever forget? So simple, yet it changed the course of our lives forever.
Hey.
Hey, yourself.
Thanks to those three words, we’re taking our step into becoming a real family. With a child on the way, and Hush expressing a great desire to give our first daughter siblings. And somehow, his eyes still tell the story of him being lost, scared, and shy. Wanting to impress me like he hasn’t done it a million times already.
“I love you.” Hush kisses the top of my head, focusing on me instead of the beautiful sky ahead.
That’s why I know our love will last forever. Why I blush at his silly jokes or attempts to tease, and why I can’t control my expressions of love.
Because he’s the perfect husband, and soon he’ll be the perfect father.
And I can’t wait to take the rest of this journey we call life together.
The End
