Emily - Underway

"Will you miss me?" she asked early this morning, looking me deep in my eyes.

"Terribly," I admitted.

"It means so much to me," she said, "you giving me this."

"It means something to me, too," I admitted.

She leaned towards me, kissed me, pulled back. "I can't wait to see him," she said. 

"I know," I said. "He's special, isn't he?"

"He always has been," she said. "I couldn't ask for a better boyfriend."

"I couldn't ask for a better man in our marriage," I said.

We kissed again, stopped again. "I need to get dressed," she said, "I want to say goodbye to B before I go."
