Why don’t we just say it already?” He smirked. “I mean come on now.”
I eyed him carefully not knowing where to step. “What is it you think we want to say?”
“That we love each other. I kick myself every time I stopped myself from saying it. And I know you love me and that’s all that matters,” he said, pulling me close instead of away this time. We stared at the water in a shared silence.
My mind wished I could say the same thing, but knowing if I wanted to was the problem. Did I even know how?
