She already fell asleep despite me saying that. I pulled the covers over her and turned to shut off the lamp, but it finally died out. The room was now eerily dark and I went back on my side and watched as Jessica slept, slowly exhaling out of her small, open mouth. There was a calmness to her that wasn't present when she was awake and I caressed her wet but silky hair a bit before wrapping my arm around her, joining her in sleep.
The dream that I had previously came back as I snuggled with Jessica. It was about our wedding day where I looked forward to spending the rest of my life with her. Now I wasn't sure if Jessica would join me in the morning or remain sleeping throughout. I can only pray before the inevitable occurs as these days count down.
