Staying

Will you stay with me?

Carressing my cheek, looking up at me, I look at her and nod, her cold hands with mine. I smile and let out a sigh, kissing her hands, kissing her cheek

She lets out a giggle, and looks at me. She bites her lip and she looks at me again and asks

Will you..please?

I rest my forehead against hers, i look at her deeply...I remained silent, our breathings in sync. I closed my eyes and I whispered soft, loving words to her that she may only hear.

Yet my answers are plain, she still worries about me leaving. I fear the same. She has no idea how important she is to me. I love her with all my heart. I worry, I go insane without her..

I love you. Stay.

I squeezed her hands tightly and pulled her into a loving kiss. I pulled away for a moment, I see her eyes twinkling. I wiped away the small tears and reassured her. I let out a smile, and she smiles warmly at me.

"Marry me.." I looked at her

She shakes her head and held my head to her chest. I let out a chuckle.

I'm staying. I am. Just hold on to me.
