“You don’t need to apologize for needing some space,” I tell him, shaking my head. “But I want to make sure you know that you’re always able to come to me.” “I do. I know that,” he confirms. Eliminating the space between us, he kisses me, and I melt right into it. This, right here, is exactly what I needed. The feeling I get when I’m around him. The way he makes me feel safe and loved.
