Elizabeth took a shower while Chris slept, and she hoped to finish before he woke.
Last night had been more than she could have ever hoped. Not only had they both confessed their love for one another in both words and actions, they had talked about a future together.
He wanted her to move in with him. Officially. Even though she hadn’t slept in her apartment for three weeks, hearing him say that he wanted her there with him always, made her insides do little flip-flops.
When Chris had asked her to never leave him, her heart nearly broke. After hearing him talk about his ex-wife, she knew his first marriage was the cause of his insecurity. Chris was so strong and confident most of the time that it hurt her to see him so vulnerable. His opening up like that only made her love him more.
