Her hair smells like coconuts and thatās the first thing that Sam could think of when he woke up. Each morning he was greeted by a new scent, whatever product Jess was trying out that week, but it always smelled like home. That bed, the weight of her in his arms, her curly hair tickling his nose, that was the definition of home.Sam pressed a kiss to her shoulder. It was covered in freckles like she spent her days in the sun. There was a ray of sunlight peeking through the crack in the window that illuminated her skin. She glowed like a goddess. There werenāt words Sam could use to explain how lucky he felt.āMorning Sam,ā she said. She turned around in his arms, her familiar smile on her face.God, Sam could never get tired of seeing it.āMorning Jess,ā he grinned at her. He place a kiss on her forehead, then the tip of her nose, and then her lips. She melted into the kiss, wrapping her arms around him to pull him closer. In all his years, Sam had never been as warm as he was in her arms. He pulled away from the kiss. āWhat are you doing today?āāIāve got a class in like an hour, then some studying to do, but Iām entirely free tonight.āāGreat, you wanna go to that art exhibition across town?ā Sam asked. Jess hummed. āAwesome, we can go for Chinese or something too.āāSounds good,ā Jess cuddled closer to him. āI need to go get a shower.ā She didnāt move, her arms still wrapped around his waist. The bathroom door was open, beckoning her, but she refused to let go of Sam.āFive more minutes,ā he told her. Five minutes laid beside her felt like an eternity but it still wouldnāt ever be enough. He felt his eyes start to close again, sleep pulling at him.Then their alarm went off, blaring and beeping and ruining the softness of it all.Jess groaned as she pulled herself out of bed. Even in the early morning, she looked like an angel. Sam couldnāt take his eyes off her as she shuffled over to the bathroom, wearing one of his old shirts as a nightgown. He stayed in bed as he listened to the shower click on, her sweet voice blending in with the sound of running water. He was blessed, he thought, with a live heād never believed he could have.
