Elio had an earlier morning than I did, so I woke up to the sound of my alarm and the chill of an empty bed. Thinking about how we’d spent the evening before helped to warm me up.
I smiled as I went about my morning routine, hoping that we might spend another evening doing the exact same thing. We had both been so busy lately, and it was a treat to have an evening to ourselves, spent doing what we wanted.
I loved spending time with Elio, just enjoying each other. We never seemed to get tired of each other’s company.
I let the shower warm up while I brushed my teeth. I had little circles under my eyes because we’d stayed up far too late into the night, just talking and enjoying each other.
