Covenant

It is going to sound so cliché and I know it is entirely expected of people to write something relating to their partners but everything always feels perfect around him. I know, I know...boorinngggg. Hear me out, though, the perfection is found in the way that laughter erupts and breaks the silence in the room. His smile ignites a spark in my chest and every single time I hear his laugh I can't help but get lost in the flames. The joy comes any time and every time we're together. Yes, I know how cliché that sounds, but it is the happiest I have ever been.

Today, our perfect moment was having shared thoughts on the evening's movie date. It was a great film, and I think we agreed on that for different reasons but we were both on the edge of our seats almost the whole time. As connected as I always feel to him, this was just one of those moments. It was just like in the movies, when the two characters would glance at each other and smile because of some cute but slightly awkward scenario...except we were both stress eating popcorn and had our eyes glued to the screen until the end of the movie. We just sat there as the lights came on and the credits started rolling with huge smiles on our faces as we immediately began reflecting on the most nerve-wracking scenes. And then came the laughter. It was just that and whatever music came during the credits echoing through the empty theater. We kept laughing and talking about the movie as we went down the steps to leave. It is such a small moment but it felt so magical and it carried on until we made it out the theater doors. It was just one of those moments.
