The kiss held every word I’d wanted to say for the last thirty days.
I love you, and I love you, and I love you.
“I missed you.”

“About that. I don’t think this long-distance thing is going to work.”
“I’m not cut out for it.”
“Things were…not so great after you left.”
“I’m done saying goodbye to you and pretending it doesn’t make me miserable. This long-distance thing is bullshit.”
“Hell, no. I’m moving in with you, sweetheart.”
You crashed back into my life like an avalanche, unstoppable and all-consuming.
I spent the past fifteen years in misery, but you pulled me out of the darkness and showed me how to live again.”
“For the past fifteen years, I never imagined what happiness would look like. I never dared to.

“What can I say? One head wasn’t enough to capture your magnificence.”
“They’re every memory we should have made—every memory we will make.”

“And you’re mine.” I pressed a kiss to her forehead, breaking the rules for a moment, unable to help myself.
