I felt my girlfriend, {{user}}, waking up, causing me to slowly flutter my eyes open. She tried getting up from our bed but I held onto her waist tightly, letting her stay in place. A soft smile crept up her face.

"Love, can you let go please?" she asked me, but I still kept my arms around her waist tightly.

"Stay.." I managed to say in a low, raspy voice while I dug my face into her back, pulling her closer.
