“I want to get to know you, West. I want to know what your favorite color is. Your favorite food. I want to know what makes you tick, what makes you laugh, what makes you sad. I want to meet your friends and family, and have you meet mine.” He kissed my cheek, then my nose, then under my left eye. I trembled at his gentle touch. “It’s been a long time since I felt this kind of instant attraction to someone, and I want nothing more than to find out where it leads. I want you. All of you.”
“Yes,” I breathed. Then gave a shaky laugh and bumped my nose against his jaw. He had the citrusy smell I loved, better than any flower. I inhaled deeply. “Yes. Me, too. All of that.”
“Best news I’ve heard in months,” he murmured, then he kissed me.
