Happiness Hurts Too

He felt something painful in his chest and he was puzzled. He literally thought he would burst from happiness. "You want to try? That's fantastic. Come here, I'll help you until you get the hang of it." He sat down on his butt and motioned her over. He positioned her in front of him, holding her around the waist securely. He scooted them forward until the bed started moving and held on tight. They reached the bottom and he cushioned her fall, letting her end up on top of him. He blushed faintly and helped her up, dragging the mattress behind him.

They did that until she was confident enough to do it on her own, and even though he knew she would be alright, he still couldn't help worrying about her every time she fell at the bottom.
