“My longtime broken heart was breaking again, shattering, falling to pieces and disintegrating. And in its place was a brand new heart. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes.”

“I will start your car when it gets cold. I won't complain about the clump of hair in the shower. I will put my toothbrush back in the holder, and I will try to remember to put the seat down. I will wrap my hands around your toes when they are cold, and I will gladly remove your clothes when you are hot. I will do the dishes on nights you cook...I will do the dishes every night. I will kiss your stubbed toes and smashed fingers. I will tickle you...a lot. And pin you to the wall...a lot. I will be soft, but I will also be hard. I will go fast but also remember to take it slow. Sometimes. I will hold your hand at the movies and push your chair in at the restaurant. I will convince you to wing walk. Not today. Not tomorrow. But someday. I will encourage you and push you. And when you need me to, I will hold you. And when you don't need me to, I will hold you. I will play, I will laugh, I will cry, and I will love--all with you.”

“I know you, babe. I’ve memorized you. And if you’d let me, I’d memorize your heart. I know how to make it beat a little faster. Just tell me how to make it mine.”

“I love you, gorgeous.”

His head dropped to the curve of her shoulder and she mindlessly wrapped her arms around his neck.

His words ruined her, broke her, sent her into unimaginable peril while cleansing her soul. They were beautifully detrimental words, healing her and scarring her. She wanted to cry, and she wanted to laugh…she wanted to scream.

But instead, she crawled into the expansive haven those words constructed and burrowed in deep. If only for just tonight.”
