"Come back to me, Kiwi!" I heard Vivi call from the bed. I was in the bathroom putting on a little bit of lip-gloss for the date we were going on for our anniversary.

I'd never get tired of hearing that phrase. It was just a reminder of how important I was to him and how much he cared. To me that meant so much. He always wanted me around and I always wanted him around. Both of us were very clingy, and very affectionate. That was just our relationship and I loved it.

"I'm coming! Just two minutes!" I said, putting the lip-gloss down and grabbing my hairbrush.

I brushed my hair back and then loosely braided my hair in a side braid. Then I examined myself in the mirror for a few minutes, trying to decide if my look was complete.

I heard Vivi's footsteps before he entered the bathroom. But when he did, the smirk that formed on his face made my eyes roll without permission from my brain.

"No eye rolls. This woman looks hot! Are you sure I'm the lucky man that married her? I've never been so lucky before." He joked.

I smiled. He was too much sometimes.

"Stop being so sappy." I laughed.

"Never." He chuckled, grabbing me by my waist and kissing my cheek repeatedly.

"Where are we going tonight?" I asked him.

"We're going to get some food and take a walk in a pretty garden downtown. How does that sound?" Vivi asked me.

"I like it... When we get home, I have a gift for you. But it's a different kind of gift, I guess." I told him. 

I had planned some alone time with him for tonight when we got home. I just wanted to do something that I knew meant a lot to him. It was also a thank you for all that he's done for me these past two years. 

"You don't have to give me any gifts, so whatever it is, thank you and I already love it." He told me. I smiled and kissed him, looking at his lips which had lip-gloss on them now. I wiped them off for him and we were off. 

Aurora was with her Auntie Mabel and Uncle Theo for the night. So, we had the whole night together in peace and without worrying about diapers, milk and crying. 

Once we were finally able to drag ourselves to the Angel's to get some dinner, we had an amazing date. The walk was possibly the best part. The weather was beautiful, and the garden was gorgeous.

I started to get restless eventually, just wanting to go home and give my man a relaxing night.

"Alright. It's time for us to head home so I can give you my gift... if it classifies as a gift. I don't know. I didn't have time to buy anything, so... I just planned something that's more of a service." I said to him. 

"That's amazing, baby. Like I said, you never even had to get me anything." He said. "But, I did get you something, Kiwi." 

I laughed and nodded, and he handed me a little box. I opened it and saw a necklace. It had a Kiwi pendant hanging in the center, it was green and everything. I thought it was the cutest thing ever. 

"I also have a bracelet and earrings that match it." He said to me. "But I forgot them in Aurora's bag."

I giggled and kissed his cheek. 

"It's ok. I'll get them later. This is adorable, baby! Thank you! I love, love, love it!" I smiled. 

I was about to wipe the lip-gloss off his cheek, but he stopped me. 

"No, leave it." He told me. 

"Are you sure?" I laughed. 

"I'm sure. Let the world know that I'm yours." He laughed. 

"They already know. We've been attached to each other this entire time." I said. 

"Well, this will just solidify it more." He said, wearing my pink lip print on his cheek with pride. 

Soon enough, we were home. I had Vivi get out of his cute outfit and I gave him a massage. I kneaded his back muscles, his legs, and his shoulders. I just waited until he was ready to fall asleep and then I cuddled him and gave him a head massage. I gave him a face massage, put a mask on his face afterwards and did his skincare for him. Then I gave him kisses and cuddles and I let things get heated. I did all the work for him, not wanting him to exert himself at all that night. Then, we went and we took a long bath together, soaking in the tub until our fingers were all wrinkly. 

I took care of my man for the night. I gave him all the special treatment I could think of. I got the softest clothes and he wore them to bed. We cuddled for hours, staring into each other's eyes, talking. We talked a lot about each other and about our baby girl. But it was talking nonetheless. We didn't have much time like this anymore, and it was nice to just talk. To stay up together and tell each other every last excruciating detail about everything. 

He told me about work, since I'd been away for a while taking care of our angel. I made sure to make him aware how appreciative I was of the hard work he did. The man was amazing. He went to work and he'd come home ready to make food for me if I hadn't gotten any. He'd take Aurora so I could rest. He'd give me massages and attention. He'd cuddle me so I could sleep better. He was just incredible. 

I knew that it was exhausting for him to be working and taking care of me and Aurora when he came home. But that's what showed me that this was the real deal for him. The commitments that he made for me from day one just showed how serious he was about me and our relationship. He may have been inexperienced and he did make mistakes at times. But I watched him learn from every single mistake and never repeat it. 

I wasn't the only one that grew out of the state I was in when we first met. He grew too. He became more experienced, more responsible, more caring, much more expressive. He got better at communication. He discovered what about his life he wasn't happy with and he made changes so that we could both have the best life possible. 

Neither of us planned for Aurora and while I freaked out, he remained calm and saw the brighter side of the situation. That's another thing I loved about this amazing man. When I couldn't be calm and see straight, he did it for me. 

Another thing was how affectionate he was. Maybe it was weird to other people, and maybe it's because of my past that we're like this, but we cling to each other in ways others don't. I like curling up in his lap and he likes it just as much as me. He doesn't mind letting me do that in public, nor does he ever shy away from being goofy and overly affectionate with me in front of people. I guess some people think that it's gross or unnecessary. But we don't do anything too weird in public. We're usually pretty normal unless we're more comfortable and around family.

It's just a match made in heaven in my opinion. Vidal and I were meant to be with each other. If it wasn't because of me getting scared and him catching me before I fell of a hospital bed, it would've been something else that brought us together. Our love was unbreakable, unstoppable, uncontrollable. 

He was the man who saved me. The man who protected me. The man who taught me about the world as I know it today. The man who made all my dreams come true. The man who gave me the world and placed it in my hands. The man who dropped everything and made me his. He was absolutely incredible. That's how I see it anyway. I'd love this man with all of me, forever and always.
