Kitty 🐺

future

late at night is when the real questions were asked.

it was just me and sam, tucked into bed and nearly falling into sleep.

"kitty," sam yawns, "do you ever think about the future?"

i nod and turn onto my other side to face him, heavy eyes remaining closed.

"am... am i in it?" he asks nervously, words slurred from tiredness.

i yawn and crack a soft, half-assed smile, "honey, you are it."

i ignore the sounds of the sheets shuffling, knowing the blonde was probably scooting closer. when he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me against his chest, i wasn't surprised.

"i love you, so much." he mumbles, sounding like he was about to fall asleep.

"i love you too." i whisper, nearly asleep myself.
