Of shining mornings and idyllic moments(01)
@emiliv
Bright daylight had already begun streaming in through the sheer very faint pinkish-white gauzy curtains and creamy eggshell-white, embroidered damask drapes, for the past couple of hours of the morning but Kriztian was in no mood to get out of bed. He had woke up about half an hour ago, but had chosen to spend the last 30 minutes staring wondrously and with an expression full of love at his beautiful wife’s sleeping face. He still couldn’t believe how lucky he was after all this while and the mountainfulls of ups and downs, rollercoaster of emotions and drama, as well as the extremely eventful and tumultuous journey of their relationship, that he could now call Emilia his wife and be at her side always and for all eternity for the rest of their lives together.
His beloved Emilia was now sleeping peacefully by his side, her face turned towards facing him on her thick, plush downy pillow, with her body also turned towards him, as during the middle of the night she had, as per a, sometimes-usual habit, she had shifted her sleeping position to sleep sideways facing him. And more often than not, whenever he managed to detect that, he would pull her closer to snuggle towards him with his long, and heavy muscular arm draped above her head and placing its pressure on the top part of her pillow instead, as his right hand which was wearing his daylight ring lovingly clasped her right arm, just below her shoulder, securely. Last night was no exception, just that right now, that instead of having his right arm draped over her, he had moved his arm so that he could bend it to use his right hand to prop his head up sideways, so that he could observe and stare lovingly at her whole face easily. God she was so beautiful and looked so tender and sweet when she slept. Her long eyelashes and fair eyelids closed her beautifully mesmerizing bright blue eyes from him right now unfortunately, but at least he could still see her soft pink lips which he loved to kiss every so often, every day, eversince they got married, her perfect and cute nose and both her lovely pair of cheeks and chin. Her aforementioned lips was currently curved into one her beautiful smiles as she slept which made Kriztian think that she must be having a wonderful dream currently. “What of?” he wondered inwardly to himself, wearing a soft smile of his own as he continued studying her. He could stare wondrously at her face all day, be it, awake or asleep and never be tired of it. In fact, he would never, ever get tired of looking at her till the day he died.
The golden rays of sunlight rested slightly on a lower part of her face as well as her hair, giving her blonde tresses and face a shining golden glow, not that she wasn’t already naturally glowing in Kriztian’s everyday eyes, it was just that the golden rays made her face looked even more angelic at the moment. Unable to resist it any longer, he then lowered his head down towards her face and kissed her tenderly on her forehead, very near her eyes. After drawing back, he could have sworn he saw the edges of her mouth give a tiny twitch, but after waiting for a couple of seconds with a held-in breath to see if he had accidentally disturbed her sleep and awoken her before she was ready to wake up, no other movements happened for on her facial features and he let out a relaxed breath. A minute later however, Emilia then suddenly shifted her sleeping position and chose to suddenly sleep on her back instead, but seeing as her eyes were still closed shut, he assumed that she was just naturally turning in her sleep. Her left arm then went to rest on top of her chest and just above a certain part of her body which he was at this period of time, very much in love with, slightly more than the rest of her body parts,: her swollen stomach which was carrying their unborn child in her womb. Kriztian’s grin was then a mixture of bemusement and love as he then slowly and silently sat up on the bed before balancing himself on his two strong arms, as he then crept over her nearly 8 months pregnant large stomach. “Good morning, sweet pea,”he then whispered softly, his mouth just a few inches above the nightgown covering Emilia’s belly. “Your mummy and I can’t wait to see you soon, little one, “he cooed softly with a great amount of tenderness in his voice and love on his face. And as if the baby could miraculously hear him, Kriztian then at the next minute,felt their unborn baby kick in response within Emilia’s stomach, as it so happened that Kriztian had then, at that very second, laid his left hand which had his golden wedding ring on it, gently on top of her stomach. An expression of utmost tender delight then filled his facial expression as he then took off his hand and instead opted to lay his face very softly and with the least amount of pressure as possible on top of his wife’s belly just to hear their first unborn child’s heartbeat in very close proximity and intimateness. His face sideways laid down was turned up in Emilia’s direction of her face, but his eyes were momentarily not really focusing much on her, as his dark orbs was now sparkling with euphoria and a huge delighted grin could be seen on his face as he continued concentrating and listening to their first unborn baby’s beating heart with the aid of his vampiric hearing.
