“There was no gentle way around it - hearts would be broken, relationships would be crushed and I was the messenger.”

“Before we go on from here, I just want to say," he paused and took a step closer to me and reached his hand out to my heart. "What I should have said back on the plane is I know you're real." His eyes narrowed, "I'll always fight for you, Lexi, in my own way.”

I retaliated before I go in. "There's something you need to know, something I haven't told you," he said, taking my backpack from me.”

“You're not safe with me."He cut me off, seeming to growl. "I don't want to be safe. I want to be with you. You can't do this alone.”

“I started picturing Rens smiling face, the warmth of his touch, the slight curl of his lip before he kissed me. Every happy memory came rushing back through the blackness illuminating it in brilliant color.”

“Do I make you nervous?" he said teasingly.”
