My eyes sweep over the page trapped between my finger tips as I sink further into the sheets. Sleep burns my eyes and my interest wanes beyond the words on the page as I slam the book shut, ready to settle into sleep.

Almost as if he's read my mind, Harry pads into the room, dressed for bed with signs of fatigue clouding his eyes. He gives me a sleepy grin as he peels back the duvet, settling between the sheets before he leans over, pressing a gentle kiss to my mouth.

I sigh contently, turning on my side, my fingers weaving through his tresses as I pull him in for another kiss. His hair is still damp from the shower, curls still trying to find their rightful place as they recover from a recent hair cut.

For as long as we've been together, this had been our nightly routine, very few words but many kisses and caresses until we both drifted off into a slumber. It was my favorite part of the day, just being able to sit in silence and enjoy each other's company without any interruptions the day might bring.

I smile as he presses a kiss to my temple, his fingers reaching for the growing hardened bump of mine that creates a small barrier between the two of us. It's his latest obsession, the more it grows, the harder it becomes to not touch it. He's crazy about the little bump, perhaps more smitten with it than he is with me, but I'm not at all jealous-I know what's it's like to love someone so much.

"We're in love, aren't we?" I murmur against his skin, breaking the comfortable silence.

It's an absurd question, I know, as if the the rings on our fingers and the small bump aren't obvious indications of love. But for some reason I have to sure.

His eyes brows furrow softly, his beautiful jade eyes narrowing softly.

"Uh, sure. Have been for quite sometime, love," Harry replies, matter-of-factly.

I sigh.

"I guess what I'm trying to say, H, is that- have you ever thought about if this ends?"

My stomach drops at the thought and I suddenly wiggle out of his embrace, sitting up against the headboard.

"What are you talkin' about, baby?"

His tone is worried and he sits up as well, turning to face me.

"What if, one day, this is all over. What if we're over? What if, one day, we wake up and we're in separate beds living separate lives and distant memories are the only things we share?"

Harry grabs hold of my hand.

"Sounds like a bad Taylor Swift song," he chuckles. "we've got nothing to worry about, love."

"Harry," I warn, playing with a lose thread on the duvet. "I'm serious. Have you ever thought about it, at least?"

He sighs, staring down at our intertwined hands.

"Sure," he shrugs. " but I hate the thought of it. It took us so long to get where we are now, I jus'- It'd kill me."

I feel saddened, nearly crushed at the idea of Harry and I permanently going our separate ways as we almost did sometime before but I'm also relieved and happy that he doesn't agree with the idea of parting.

"I don't wanna be without you," I mumble. "I love you too much."

Harry reaches out, weaving his fingers through my bed wrangled hair.

"You're the best thing that's happened to me, babe. D'you know that?"

I grin, feeling the corner of my eyes brimming with tears of happiness.

"If you haven't told me a million times before,"

He, leans forward, pressing another soft kiss to my mouth and I feel his wet grin against my lips.

"We've got little ones comin' soon. Let's not think to hard about this, yeah?"

I trap my bottom lip between my teeth, regaining my comfortable position in the sheets.

"I guess I am thinking too far ahead," I reply.

His eyebrows raise but a grin still lingers on his lips.

"You plannin' on leaving me?" Harry questions wrapping his arms around me once more.

"Not anytime soon," I quip.

"Good," he grins, pressing a kiss to the crown of my head. "hearts don't break round here."
