Lucas lay on the couch with me lying on top of him as we chatted and laughed. We were officially a couple and I was darn happy about it. He was my boyfriend and best friend.
"Hahaha, what did you do?" I giggled, my face buried in his neck.
"I couldn't do anything. I was so embarrassed. Gosh, I'm more than glad that that part of my life is over with." he mused.
He had me wrapped warmly in his arms.
"I imagine the shame." I replied, amused.
"Horrible. But that's over now."
"Yeah..."
We lay quiet for a while until I began to trail soft kisses on the side of his neck. Why was it only now that I realised how much I loved him and everything about him! His scent, his skin! I'd refused to admit it a long time ago.
I kissed him softly.
"I hope this isn't some dream." he murmured and I giggled.
"No, it's not."
"I'm so lucky." he mused and I laughed. Lucas still had that funny attitude which I loved.
"We both are."
