His Midnight Confession

Synopsis

On our wedding night, we slept in separate rooms. Ryan didn't say a word. He just went along with it. Every night, I'd fall asleep hugging my dolphin plushie, but somehow, it always ended up at the foot of my bed by morning. Then, one night at two in the morning, Ryan quietly took the dolphin away and pulled me into his arms. He whispered, "Honey, when will I finally get to hold you for real?" It turned out he had loved me for twelve years, but he never had the courage to even come near me.
