@soulsendured | i better not hear an ‘i told you so’
“ happy birthday. “ it starts out as a soft, low sound; naked body turning under sheets to better face the woman she shares the bed with. already the cabin was hot from the midday sun, the night before having been more of a late morning. her body still hums from all the spots ryan’s hands had caressed. despite the smile on her face, her gaze is far-away, as if looking for something in ryan’s sleep-heavy eyes. lip quirks as she reaches out to stroke cheek, the touch is reverent & tender, not unlike it had been the night prior. then she leans in to kiss her, a breathless sound forming between them as the words slip past her guard, past the walls she’ built & ryan had slowly chipped away at. a breathless “ i love you. “ before lips capture lips to seal the words between them.
