NPOV:

I wake up with Will's arms wrapped around me. Careful not to wake him, I turn around in his arms and face him.

The pale sunlight filtering through the curtains makes his hair look lighter, pale yellow instead of gold. His azure eyes are shut, and I can't help admiring him. He looks amazing...

His eyes flicker open, and he smiles.
"Morning." He whispers. I smile and he pulls me closer. "I love your smile." He tells me. I kiss his cheek in reply, making him blush.

We've been together for almost four months... In fact, I think it's four months exactly! I grab my notepad and write four months? Then hand it to Will. His eyes widen. "Shit. I forgot!" He exclaims. I shrug, to show him that I did too, but he shakes his head. "I'm such a bad boyfriend..." He groans. I shake my head, eyes wide, but he shakes his back. "I can't believe I forgot...."

It's not important. Only four months. I write. "But..." I shut Will up with a kiss, properly on the lips. He sighs. "Okay, you win."

I want I tell him how much I love him. In actual words, not written down. I take a deep breath and try to speak. My voice is hoarse, but I manage.
"Will..." His head snaps up, and he stares at me with unfiltered joy. "I love you." I whisper. He pulls me into an extremely tight hug, almost crushing my ribs.
"You... You're talking!" He grins. I nod.
"My throat hurts though."

Will laughs and pulls me into a kiss, smiling.
"Better?" He asks when we pull away.
"Not really," I admit. "But I like your kisses."

"We have to tell the doctors:" he decides.
"Now?"
"Yes."
"Can't you just call them?" I plead. Will nods.
"Okay, I'll call them. Then we're spending the rest of the day talking."

"Do you have any medicine for my throat?"
"Uh... Yeah. It won't taste very nice though." he grimaces.
"So? I've been eating your food for the past four months." I joke.
"Hey!" He seats my arm playfully.
"Just kidding." I kiss his cheek and he smiles. "Love you."
"Love you too, Neeks."

Don't worry, this isn't the end!
