The only light in the room was coming from the television as the two of them laid next to one another on the couch. Her head was on his chest and he lightly stroked her hair. This felt so right to him. He could feel her breathing and it was something that he had missed so much.

They were supposedly watching a movie, but he would have been content to just watch her. For him it was a perfect moment in time where nothing else mattered. She was with him and that was enough.

A blanket kept the two of them away from the rest of the world. At that time the world was simply them.
