192 Open Hearts Lead to Vulnerable Feelings

William woke first to the streaming summer sunlight pouring in through the large windows directly onto the bed.

Her soft snoring was extremely adorable and she was still deep in her sleep; He ran his fingers through her curled hair that smelled like roses and strawberries and listened to her sweet mumbles and groans; sounds he had missed dearly this past year.

She raised her arms and turned onto her side, resting her bare leg on his and under the covers their bodies were warm and locked together.

It felt so right, having her here and feeling her face bury deep in his neck while she slept peacefully in his arms.

Half of her bridal makeup had rubbed off and William gently lifted the sheet to take a look at her body in the daylight; perfection.

With her bare chest resting on him, she gave him a clear view of her bare back, covered in bruises from last night's crazy love-making.
