”I’ve missed this” I mumble softly against your hair, sneakily inhaling the familiar scent of your shampoo. My arm is securely draped over your body and my hand mindlessly tracing circles on your upper arm. You’ve nuzzled into my side, almost like a kitten. My kitten.

It’s moments like these that makes me wish that we lived closer to each other. I mean sure, I have the money to buy a house here in Berlin for us two. But it’s not that easy. First of all, I’m working on my fourth album, causing me to spend a lot of time in the studio in London. Second of all, you’re studying and I don’t want you to give up your dream just so you can come and live with me. And besides, we’ve only been seeing each other for a few months, so this whole relationship is pretty new.

Honestly though, it’s tough not being with you. Not waking up with your hair tickling my nose, going on late night walks together, cooking dinner together while listening to music… it’s almost torture. Right now though, I managed to get away from the studio for a few days, and you just had a big exam so you had a few days break. So of course we’re spending the time together.

You’re my first relationship in a while. It’s been a few years since my last one, and I’ve forgotten how magical it is to spend all your time, asleep and awake, with another person.

Your soft couch holds the both of us, and a tv-show we started watching earlier today is glowing on the tv. And I’m right where Im supposed to be.
