Tell me what you think.

The morning light shined through the sheer veil of the oak tree leaves above us, reaching through the flaws in it's protection and dragging it's horrid reminder into my perfect dream. Turning to him, I let out a sigh of relief, loving the way his perfectly messy hair framed his dark eyes. I offered him the smallest smile and he returned it with less enthusiasm. His naked body next to mine was all I ever needed and through out the years, it was the only thing I ever really wanted from him. At least that's what I told myself on occasion. In honesty, I wanted all of him; every bit of his being should have been mine. Every single smile that graced the room was just a gnawing reminder that he was content with this.

And how many more times would we be able to escape to our spot in the woods; the one I'd spent years thinking about? Never again. This was the last time, he'd told me, but how could I believe him? He'd been saying that ever since he found the god-forsaken girl that stole the whole of his heart; what would lead me to believe that even in marriage, it would stop?

His hand snaked around my bare body, reached across my chest, feeling the marks that he'd left there the night before and I let my eyes close, forgetting the gnawing pain only for a second.

"Will you be attending?" he asked quietly into the nape of my neck and I laughed bitterly.

"I couldn't miss it; I like to see you truly happy."

He didn't object, only shifted his position and sat upright in his spot, wiping at his tired eyes. Reaching for his shirt and slipping it over his bare torso, he stood. I marveled at the body that was no longer mine, clutching the dirty sheets to my chest as he tugged on his jeans and began back toward his car.

"Jack," I called, realization setting in that this was the last time. "I love you."

"Wedding's at one," he mumbled, ignoring me like he did every time before disappearing into the trees
