"I've been too much of a coward to tell you while you're awake, and I'm sorry for that. I didn't want to scare you away. I can't. I don't want to lose you. Katrina"

Katrina did turn around then, tears in her eyes, her face

entirely fro

You could never scare me away. Kylan I haven't. All this time, I've been by your side. I've been patient. I've been underganding. There's not a damn thing you could say that would make me not be completely in love with your stubborn, grumpy, kind, warm ass." She didn't disguise the emotion in her voice. She wanted Kylan in understand. To know how much she loved him. How much she would always love him

The expression on Kylan's face. It was He was. Shit, he really did love her. It was clear. As clear as the sky on a sunny darnn day.

His eyes were brimaning with it Overflowing with words, emotions, the feelings he didn't know how to say

She let out an embarrassing whimper, flinging her wet hands around his neck and hugging him tighter than she ever had. He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her to him and releasing a long, slow, exhale.

"I love you, Kylan, I love you" She sobbed those words, sniffling, her heart nearly exploding with the truth that she had been holding Kylan gingerly shifted so that he could take hold of her face, his thumbs brushing the tears away that pooled beneath her e bark

"I love you. Katrina. You're the only person I've ever been in love with, and the only person I ever want to be in love with. Rylan's own eyes were full of tears, and she heard herself laughing.

"You're a pain in the ass, Kylan Ross. My pain in the ass. Forever mine." Her hands fisted in the back of his hair and her lips ascended on his kissing him with every ounce of passion, every unfiltered emotion that she possibly could.

Tim yours. As long as you want me, kylan spoke against her lips.

She hammed, resting her forehead against his.

"Will you make love

to me. Kylan?" It was the first time, the first real instance that she had ever referred to their passion in that way.

"Every damn day, if you'll let me." With that. Kylan picked her up bridal style, carrying her over to the staircase and walking her up to the loft.

Katrina would never tire of this. She would never become bored of Kylan. She would never grow used to making love to him, feeling him inside ber, hearing how much he cared for her.

She would never take for granted the fact that Kylan let her in, let her see him in a way that he hid from the rest of the world. She would never stop being grateful that he knew she was just the same, and he knew exactly how to make her feel safe and seen. It wouldn't ever be easy, it wouldn't be a perfect journey, but it would be hers. It would be her own journey with Kylan. Her own path with him. She didn't need perfect. She didn't want perfect

She wanted real. She wanted someone who believed in her, who pushed her to be the best version of herself. She wanted to do the same, to be the same for someone else,
