Chapter Twenty-Five

Daniel's P.O.V.

[A/N]

This chapter will be like, super fluffy. Just a heads up.

Add on:
I'm sorry that I assumed everyone knew what "fluffy" meant in these terms. It's means super cute and adorable and all that.

I can't think of a more content, satisfactory feeling than just lolling in bed with the person you love. After we... took the next step in our relationship, Nida and I have not moved from our place in her bed, but just spooning and having meaningless conversations. In all honesty, there's no place in the world that I would rather be.

When I've had sex before, I have never felt any emotion other than lust, but Nida made me feel  so many different things, love definitely being the most prominent out of all of them. Everything we did felt so right, so much so that I decided to never let her leave my side. I don't know her plan for the future, me not having one myself, but I know that where she's going, I'm going too. No matter the circumstance, no matter what happens in life, she will be in my life forever. Call me crazy, but I need her.

With her naked back pressed against my bare chest, Nida giggles and plays with my fingers, making my heart flutter just a tad. Her laugh is cute, careless and happy. I want her to feel this way all the time. I'll just have to tack it onto my list of things to do with her for the rest of forever.

Daniel, you're crazy. I think to myself.

Crazy in love, take that brain.

"Nida?" I say, my eyes watching her aimlessly play with my fingers.

"Yeah babe?" She replies. I smile, happy at the nickname. She never calls me anything other than my name, so this is a step up.

"Let's play twenty questions." I offer. Nida drops my hand and turns completely around, me putting my arms around her in return. She smiles up at me and I can tell it's from genuine happiness. How can I tell? When she's genuinely happy, her eyes smile as well. Her dark brown eyes become a little lighter and her smile spreads farther, those being small details that you have to really pay attention to her in order to know.

"Okay." Nida bites her bottom lip, waiting for me to ask her something.

"Favorite color?" I start simply, not wanting to jump into deeper questions until later.

"Easy: dark blue." She states. I nod and for a second consider buying more dark blue clothing. "Uh... favorite food?"

I smirk before saying, "You." Nida laughs and hits my arm playfully, as I start to laugh as well. I watch her laugh, taking in just how beautiful she really is. I knew she was gorgeous, but every time I see her she gets more pretty.

Whipped.

"Whatever." She says, finally sobering up. Nida is still smiling, and it warms my heart to see it. I know what she can be like, so broken and crying, but to see her happy makes all the tears worth it. I love this girl.

"What are you doing for college?" Nida looks up at me and sighs.

"Local. I want a school but needs to be close." She says. I nod again. She's staying close for her family. I would never, for a while I wanted to get as far from my family as possible. But to Nida, family is worth more to her than living is. Selfishly, I want to be worth that much to her one day. She already means that much to me.
