“Truth is, I’m terrified of falling in love. But I’d rather trust you with my heart and risk you breaking it than live another day without you in my life. I want to be the kind of man that deserves a woman as beautiful, selfless, and kind as you. It might take my entire life to achieve that kind of goal, but as long as you’re by my side, I’d consider it a life worth living.” Her bottom lip wobbles and I trace it with my thumb. “And while I know I don’t deserve you, I’ll spend every single day proving to you how much I love you.”
