I can feel my eyes widen as Jack leans down a bit, his gaze warm and soft and open in a way I've seen more and more of recently. It's hard to calm the rapid beating of my heart when he starts talking even as I feel my cheeks go so, so warm.
"Jack," I breathe, but he's already kissing me, just a light brush of his lips against mine.
No one's ever said anything so amazing about me in all my life and, for a long moment I can't say anything at all. There are three very distinct words I want to say, but even now, even after all that, I'm worried it's too soon. We've only been officially dating for a few months and the very last thing I want is to scare him off.
Oh, but how that feeling burns in my chest.
So instead I reach up to cradle his face, holding him there as I press another kiss. And another, just because I can. "As selfish as it is, I'm so, so glad you're here," I tell him, bumping my nose against his lightly. "I can't even tell you how happy you've made me these past few months."
