Chapter 163: Chapter One hundred sixty-three: I love you and the rest is history

"Thank you so much, Sam," He said right after he put me down. His hands were on my face and kept tracing my facial features with his fingers.

"What are you thanking me for when I just said I love you too?"

But he pulled me to him and wrapped his arms around me before answering my question.

"That's what I'm thanking you for, sweetheart, for saying that you love me too." And I closed my eyes when I felt his lips kissing my hair repeatedly. "You don't know how long I have been waiting to hear those words again, for you to say you love me again." He then stared at me. "It has been six years since I last heard those words from you when we were still together and it's also been six years since I longed you to say you love me again."
