Aftermath (8)

Having already turned down the covers on his bed, Daniel carefully picked up a sleeping Abigail, and carried her over, laying her down before pulling the covers back over her.  He could not help himself but to gently push her hair from her eyes and smiling.

Knowing that if he was not careful, he would push things further than what Abigail was even comfortable with after their discussion, Daniel moved and brought a chair to sit down beside the bed and simply watch her sleep, which fascinated him.  His wife asleep in his bed, even a month ago, he could not have dreamed that that would be the case, let alone simple things she did would captivate him.

Leaning back slightly, Daniel realised with his thoughts that he needed to be careful.  Yes, developing feelings and wanting to work out with Abigail what would happen with their marriage was something he wanted, but if he was not stop himself, she would become his obsession.
