Nothing To Hide

1 Nothing to Hide sm

Why should I? Everything in this photo needs to be seen.

Maybe I’m crossing my fingers behind my back, but not because I’m negating telling a fib. Maybe it’s because I’m hoping you are excited as I am about all of these amazing things!

More from The Liaison Collaborative and [ keke ] this post. The dress is an adorable peek-a-boo sundress from Vinyl. Peek-a-boo meaning, you’d better wear panties underneath! The Petal Eyelashes from Izzie’s are dramatic and unexpected. They certainly jazz up a spring outfit.

From [ keke ] comes the clipped artwork. They, along with nine other designs, will be available at The Seasons Story when it opens on April 10th. Using public domain works of art, she has yet again created the most wonderful accents for your home.

Check out the credits for the rest of the goods; like I said, I have nothing to hide.

He Hasn’t Gone Yet But I Miss Him Already

1 In His Shirt

He hasn’t left yet. I can hear him singing loudly and slightly off-key as he showers in the next room. I envision him conducting the band with his loofah as he rinses, reaching for his towel and drying his back with a wiggle of his bum. With the towel wrapped loosely around his waist, he clears the steam from the mirror and inspects his profile, checking it from the corner of his eye. He picks up the razor, then switches it for the trimmer and touches up his beard. Grabbing his toothbrush, he applies the toothpaste with a flourish and polishes his teeth to a shark-like gleam. I hear the water splash as he rinses the residue from the sink since he knows that finding globs of blue paste in the bowl is one of my pet peeves.

He emerges from the bathroom and I admire him as he dresses, softly humming the chorus of the tune he began in the shower. He steps back into the bathroom to bring out his shaving kit, tucks it into his suitcase and slowly zips it closed. His movements slow, he turns to see me sitting there, cuddling his pillow that smells of him, dressed in his shirt, his socks and even his hat. With a wan smile he shrugs into his jacket, picks up his bag and crosses to me. Setting his luggage on the floor, he tips back the brim of my fedora and kisses me softly, holding me so closely I can feel the beating of his heart.

In that moment, even though I know he will only be away for a few days, I realise how much he means to me.

He hasn’t gone yet, but I miss him already.
