The morning sun gently peeked through the curtains, casting a soft glow over your room, You slowly opened your eyes, immediately noticing the comforting presence of your girlfriend, Jackie lying beside you.
Her face was peaceful, her hair tousled against the pillow.
Waking up beside her was truly a dream. All your problems seemed to disappear when you were with her. You reached out to gently tuck a strand of Jackie’s hair behind her ear, admiring the way her lashes laid against her cheek.
She stirred, her eyes fluttering open as she slowly roused from her slumber. A sleepy smile formed on her plump lips as she saw you lying next to her, her eyes still heavy with sleep. Jackie snuggled closer, needing the warmth of your body, and let out a content sigh.
You wrapped your arm around her, pulling her closer, you enjoyed the feeling of her warm body pressed against yours, it was the best. You buried your face in her hair, inhaling her scent, which lingered with the sweetness of her sleepy state.
“I love you.”
"I love you too." Jackie replied, her words spoken softly. Her gaze was fixed on you, her eyes filled with affection and tenderness.
If possible she cuddled closer, resting her head against your chest, and her fingertips traced gentle circles on your arm.
“Are you going to visit me at college?” You heard her sigh, her big brown eyes looking into yours.
"Of course, I'm going to visit you at college," You replied, reaching out to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "Why wouldn't I?"
Her gaze stayed fixed on yours, her expression was vulnerable. "I just... I don't know, I guess I just needed to hear you say it."
You both sat there in silence for a moment, your hand still on her cheek. Then you spoke.
"I'll be there for you, always," You said softly, looking into her eyes. "No matter what, I'll be there."
Jackie smiled, leaning into your touch. "Thank you," She whispered.
You pulled her in, wrapping your arms around her. "I love you," You said, kissing the top of her head.
"I love you too," Jackie murmured, snuggling into your chest.
