Have you ever wished for an endless night
Lassoed the moon and the stars
And pulled that rope tight
Have you ever held your breath
And asked yourself, "Will it ever get better than tonight?”
“Glitter in the Air” – Pink
FAITH POV:
If you’d have asked me awhile ago where I thought I’d be six months from now I’d have probably said dead or lying passed out in some dirty alley somewhere. I never thought I’d be here, in her arms. Of course it was everything I wanted six months ago I just never thought it would ever actually happen.
She is my saviour, she pulled me back from the brink time and time again and I owe her life. Sounds fucking corny I know but I guess corniness comes with happiness must be a packaged deal or something. I crave her now, she is so addictive, she is my drug. I crave her touch, her smell, her voice like nothing I have ever craved before. Withdrawal from her is a thousand times worse than any drug withdrawal I’ve ever been through.
I have learnt so much from her and I know I still have so much more to learn. She is patient with me, gentle, everything that I have never had. Her smile, her laugh, just her presence help me to forget, it’s like every day I’m with her erases a bad day from my past. I still have every fear, every insecurity but she makes them okay, she makes them better and I know I’m more than lucky to have her in my life. She makes me feel whole, complete like she is literally my other half. And right now we are sitting so close together it is almost like we are one.
We’re in the cemetery on a group patrol, it’s all of us, except Giles and I mean all of us, Xander, Cordelia, Oz, Willow, me and B, the entire Scooby Gang. We’re like a fucking chick flick montage we look so happy and coupley. Great now I’m even talking like her. They don’t care, she told them and they were actually happy for us. Took me awhile to wrap my head around that one but I accepted it, truly accepted that they’ve accepted me.
Patrol is pretty quiet so we’re sitting on the blanket Red brought along with her. I’m sitting in between her legs my back resting against her body and it is like we are the one person, our hearts beating in sync, beating for one another. The others are in similar positions and they’re bantering back and forth while I lean back against her and listen. Her fingers are making patterns on my stomach and I can’t stop the contented sighs that escape. She laughs at something Xander said and my heart flutters at the sound, I would gladly listen to that sound for the rest of my life.
I have never felt this warm before, it has spread through my entire body making my fingers tingle. There is no weight on my chest, and I breathe in deeply just to enjoy the peace that a lungful of oxygen can bring. She looks down at me a soft smile across her face almost like she knew what I was doing. She leans down and kisses me softly and I can feel the love and passion being transferred through our connection as her lips gently caress my own. I would stay here in this moment forever, in her arms, kissing her because it cannot get any better than this. It’s not possible to feel better than I do in this moment.
“I love you,” she whispers in my ear.
“I love you too,” I whisper back.
And it’s true, I do.
THE END
