For the last 10 years she was used to living by herself. Sleeping in the comfort of her bed with all the pillows and the sheet she enjoys the most. Then her husband came along and she had to learn to share.
Sharing with others and letting someone into her life that was a complete stranger was so different from any experience before. Sharing her personal space 24 hours a day 7 days a week with someone who is her best friend and ultimate soul mate was a totally new experience.
It is different than sharing a bed with a sister or staying over with friends. They are someone she knew intimately since birth and accepted from the first meeting. Mostly of the same sex it seems so much more easier and they always understand.
That is until someone who is almost completely different and opposite in so many ways came along and demanded that she make the sheets for two.
A fight for the white things ensued. He suffered many cold feet.
She tried to make them for one again and again, but he knew how to fight.

“I was asleep,” she offered in defense, as he pulled the pillow back again.
The pillow it was easy, something not difficult to regain. The sheet however a much harder thing, for it was wrapped around her. There is much more to this tale, all be it much the same.

Except for one thing that solved everything and he won the sheet back again.
What is it? What did he do? It wasn’t so difficult. Everytime he got in, he tucked the sheet in.
Not into the bed, not into the mattress. No, no his only defense was to take it in his hand. It took all his strength, even when asleep. He put it also under himself, so she couldn’t get it out.
Now he has had plenty of sleep, and she has no excuse. For now if she is to steal the sheet and take it from him, she must first take it off herself.

Cute!! My sister used to have that problem. They decided to fix it by buying two sets of single sheets and comforters. Now, they both have their own sheets and blankets! :)
