Amy’s Point Of View
“Amy?”
“Yes, honey?”
“Are you sleeping?”
“Oh my… not anymore, Victor.”
In my head, my voice sounded a little harsher than intended, also very badly muffled into the pillow, so I slid up the eye mask purloined from our private jet and looked around through bleary eyes. I had intended to sleep late before a shopping trip with my friends, but now that hope was dashed. I smiled at Victor because he was a new husband, so he didn’t truly appreciate how vital sleep and shopping were to his young, pregnant wife.
I flailed my arm out, searching for my husband, who wasn’t in our bed. I caught his leg and stroked it gently as if that would coax him back to a deep sleep. It didn’t occur to ask why he sat beside me or why he was naked when we made love a few hours ago but wore sweatpants now.
“Sorry for sounding crabby, honey. Go back to sleep, come on. Spoon me, baby.”
“I understand it’s very late, Amy.”
“Yes, it’s still time for our sleep.”
“I want to show you something.”
“Oh… I see.”
“Not that.”
“Oh, that’s a shame. I’m almost awake now, and I was dreaming about you making love to me.”
