And you make me want to do bigger and better things, while helping me see that sometimes the bigger and the better things are the little things.” I nuzzle her ear. “And you’re sexy as hell.” She leans into me and hugs me tight. “You still scare me, but not as much.” It’s not I love you too. But I’ll take it.
