Morning Coffee Part 2

I woke up with a start this morning.  I am not sure what it was that jarred me from sleep.  The sun was starting to come up and the room was starting to get light.  

"Good Morning" I said as I laid back down, reaching over to your side of the bed.  You were not there.

I sat up in bed and looked around.  Your clothes were hanging on the rocking chair in the corner of my room.  I could see your car keys on the dresser, so I knew you were still here.

"T?  Where are you?"

You didn't answer.

I got up out of bed and looked into the bathroom.  No T.  I Opened the door into the hall way.  I could see a light on down stairs and could smell coffee brewing.  

I make my way down the stairs.  I had not bothered to get dressed.  As I reached the bottom, I could hear something moving around in the kitchen.  Silently I came to the kitchen door and finally I found you.

I cough softly.  You look over and me and smile.  Set down your coffee cup, walk over to me, and wrap me in your embrace.  I close my eyes and melt into your arms.  I feel warm, safe and loved.    I wanted to stay like that forever.  You hold me a long time, until you suddenly swear and and push me away.

I open my eyes, puzzled at your sudden reaction.  My nose tells me what's happening as you rush to rescue the eggs burning on the stove.

Hey!  A guy can dream, right?
