The chill in the air was undeniable. The sound of the rain as it hammered the earth added an eerie silence to the room. The fireplace crackling softly was the only sound to be heard besides the steady rise and fall of his chest. He held you against him as you reveled in the warmth of his embrace. You were nestled on the couch in front of him, feeling protected and cherished in his arms. He slept soundly, yet even in his rest you were in awe of his presence, a calmness that didn't come often. The two of you have been in a relationship for a whole month, and every day your love and admiration for him grows stronger. You feel like you know him better and better each day, and your connection becomes deeper and deeper.
