51.

I didn't realise how much I craved intimacy until I met him. But I guess some people can really take you by surprise, their presence alone your eternal weakness.

Waking up to him, his light snores, his mouth slightly open, his hair floppy on his head, warmed my heart in a way that I didn't think was possible with a guy like him. I took a few seconds to simply look up and admire his face, and how peaceful he looked asleep. But then I moved a little, and it caused him to lazily open an eye, then the other, and stare back down at me with a smile.

"Morning," I giggle, and run my fingers through the mess that was his hair in an attempt to brush it off his forehead, but loose strands would fall back down.
