The early morning sky was so beautiful, reflecting off the glass and metal skyscrapers around your and Rafael’s Manhattan apartment. Pinks, oranges, yellows, all bleeding into blue. The start of a new day.
You heard Rafael’s footsteps behind you, sighing as he wrapped his arms around your waist. A happiness you had never known before warmed you from the inside out, this was all you ever wanted. To watch the sunrise in the arms of the man you loved.
“Good morning, cariño. Watching the sunrise?” He whispered against your shoulder, voice still groggy from just waking up.
Admiring the now cloudless sky, you hummed peacefully, “Si. Que hermosa”
“Tu mas asi.” He quipped, kissing your cheek, offering you a cup of coffee, steam rising from the mug between his hands. “Cuidado, es muy caliente.”
“Tu mas asi.” You laughed. Rafael shook his head as a sweet smile spread across his face.
“Thought we could go for a walk tonight, after court? It’s such a nice day, the flowers in Central Park are just starting to bloom this time of year.” Rafael questioned, looking at you hopefully. You smiled back, running a hand down his exposed chest, through the small tufts of hair.
