A packet of smokes and a bottle of champagne.

This day today, I was so stressed.
Can’t even tell you why, just was.
My man was at work and half an hour away.
It felt like he was out of reach
because I needed his embrace so,
so bad.

I needed a drink. Not just for the sake of the drink.
But to share it with him too and unwind together.
I rang and disturbed the chaos in the kitchen.
Giving into my addiction, I said,
“A packet of smokes and a bottle of champers, thanks babe, see you soon”

I waited patiently.
He arrived home, later the usual.
This did not help how much I needed him,
yet still I waited.

The dogs barked at his arrival and I jumped
up from the bed. Not waiting more then 5 seconds
and I was in his arms.
He took away the tenseness and all the shit from my day.

He hugged me so tight I felt all of his love for me,
then he popped the cork on the champers.
We clinked our glasses together, smiled and kissed the day away.
Now I am on my third glass and getting quite giggly.

The most important thing is,
he knew I needed him and he gave himself to me, unconditionally. Like he always does.

My wonderful giving fiancé. I dedicate these words to you. As I know I never even needed to say how bad I felt.
I should have remembered how in tune with me you are, and trusted.

Can we go to bed now? Can you cuddle me and take away the pain like you always do?

The answer, yes. He did as he always does.
My stress is gone and my mind isn’t racing anymore.
There is just love shared between us, over a drink.
