“Words streamed from my mouth, some familiar, some not.The last of the were, “I love you.”He rose up off me with a grin. “If I’d known it was that easy to get you to admit how you feel, I would have done this a long time ago.”

“You’re a rose, the perfect flower. I’m a carnation, just a cheaper substitute.”

“I focused, rather embarrassingly, on his chest which was rising and falling slowly. I left teeth marks!”

“However, I have to warn you, I kind of like that you find me irresistible.”“Did I say that?” he asked, a slight tint creeping up his stubbled cheeks. “I didn’t say that! I find you completely resistible.”
