A/N: Another quite short little one-shot. This is Series4, probably right after they got home from the Cretaceous. Or you can say it's right after Series5 ... I don't have a preference. haha! I've been working on stories on my joint account with Sallad24601 so I've lacked on posting long stories on here. I am sorry for my neglect. :) Enjoy!
"Abs," he flopped beside her on her bed, making her bounce up in mid-air for less than a second, but still enough to rattle her. She froze as the brittles of her hairbrush were still in her hair and he looked at her with a grin. She never could resist that look. She smirked back at him as he scooted on the edge of the comforter before speaking. "You know what I just realized?"
She raised a brow and shook her head. "Never been good at reading minds."
He smiled again. "You're better than you think."
She gave a playful expression and continued with her hair. "What did you just realize, Connor?"
"I realized I've yet to tell you I love you."
Abby lowered her hairbrush and turned to him, looking confused and teasingly. "You tell me you love me all the time, Connor."
"Yup, but I haven't told you I loved you today."
She let out a giddy laugh and shook her head. "We just woke up."
"No excuses, Abs! I hafta tell you every waking moment."
She was now facing him, the corner of her mouth turned into a smug but pleasant smile. "And why is that?"
"Because I have to say what I feel, don't I? I love you, Abby. Every waking moment, I look at you, I hear your voice, I think of you, and I love you."
Her hands were intertwined with his and she let her eyes roll at his words. "Lord, you can be so cheesy sometimes."
"That's how it's supposed to be, init?" he grinned once again before kissing the tip of her nose and pulling away, needing to get ready for the day.
"Conn," she tugged on his arm, refusing to let go quite yet. "You know what I just realized?" Connor shook his head. "I must be a mind reader of some sort. Because I feel exactly the same."
Connor leaned back towards Abby and kissed her, tenderly and eagerly. Abby pulled away, pressing her forehead to his.
"I love you, Connor. Even if I don't say it as much as you do, I love you."
He laughed through his nose and pecker her lips one more time. "Saying it once if enough for me," he glanced at the clock and moaned. "I need a shower."
"Yeah, you do, you stink."
"Thanks very much."
She giggled and stood up from the bed, looking at him one last time. "Good morning, by the way."
He smiled. "Good morning, love."
