384: What would I do without you, baby

I cried after lovemaking this morning. I was lying on top of him and he took my face in his hands and we looked into each others' eyes when I asked him, "What would I do without you?", then put my face on his chest and burst into tears. The prospect of that happening scared me, I couldn't help myself. And I cried because of how dependent I am on him. The tears rolled down my cheeks and onto his shoulder.

He reassured me to make me stop crying and whispered words like he loves me and that we'd get married next year. That made me feel better.
