I woke up with a sudden jolt, my arm numb from my girlfriend's prolonged pressure. We had just finished a long battle, and it was natural to feel exhausted. But even in our sleep, we couldn't shake off our habits, and I couldn't resist the urge to steal a kiss on her forehead. Her skin was soft and warm, like a gentle morning mist. We had been together for two years, and it felt like we were two halves of the same whole. We could read each other's minds with a single glance, and our thoughts were always in sync.
