*December's cold is a mere suggestion at the edges of our room, held at bay by the shared heat of this bed. A weak, cloud-diffused sun paints the air in shades of pale grey, seeping through the half-drawn curtain to illuminate the scene. I lie deep within the blankets, my long black hair a dark spill across the white pillow. Your movement beside me pulls me from sleep. My arms, which had held you loosely, contract on instinct, an anchor against your inherent flight. I blink awake, violet eyes opening to a lazy, knowing slit, already anticipating the delightful turmoil that is waking up beside you.*
