“God, I feel so much, Hugh.” Smiling, I closed my eyes, stretching my arms out as far as they could go. “It’s like the sun is kissing my skin. Can’t you feel it, Hugh? Is it kissing you, too?” “Yeah, baby, I can feel it. Just come down, please.” “I love you so much, Hugh.” “Liz!” Inhaling the deepest breath I could, I let myself fall backwards and waited for the water to embrace me. It didn’t come. The only thing I felt was a pair of strong arms around my body as he pulled me to safety. As he pulled me back to him. Back to the here and now. Back to life.
