This was a level of comforting that I had never had before and I soaked up every moment of it. I pressed my face harder against her feeling myself begin to relax, as her hands rubbed my upper back and neck.

"I'm hopelessly in love with you and would do anything for you, but it bothers me that I know so little about you in regards to the time before I met you Tyre." Anna said softly.

"What do you want to know?"

"What gives you nightmares?"

"My whole childhood was a nightmare and sometimes I dream that I never left it."

I was quiet for a little while and so was she.

"I suppose you want to know more?"

"Yes." Was her soft response.

I reluctantly pulled myself up to sit back against the headboard leaving the comforting softness of her chest behind. Thankfully she followed with her comfort, as she turned halfway into me, as she lay her head on my shoulder and her hand rubbed over the muscles of my chest and belly.

"Were you an orphan?" She asked prompting me.

"Yes and no. I had a mother. I never knew my father."

"You were born in Russia?"

"Yes, Kiev to be exact."

"That must've been hard for a single mother in Russia to raise a child alone."

"She wasn't like you Anna. You're a wonderful mother and I've seen few people equal you in terms of the amount of self-sacrifice that you're willing to go through for your own child, and even for me. In a word, you're amazing!"

Her lips kissed the base of my neck, "Thanks!" She whispered before she asked, "Your mother wasn't amazing I take it?"

"She was a drug addict and did anything she had to in order to get a fix."

Anna's words were cautious as she asked, "Was she on drugs while she was pregnant with you?"

"Most likely."

I squeezed an arm around her back, "Come on out with it honey. You think I'm slightly autistic don't you Anna?"

"No I don't think your autistic Tyre, but you do have some processing disorders and emotional hang-ups. Your mother being on drugs could explain that. You cope very well with them though, but it shows at times if you know what to look for like I do. That doesn't make you any less of a man Tyre! It just makes you who you are, which is the man I love above all others!"

"You're sweet you know that! You're the sweetest, kindest most loving influence that I've ever had in my life!" I said emotionally.

She nuzzled her face against my neck and pressed her body closer to mine. "I'm glad you think that." She whispered softly against my neck.
