Epilogue

"I – I am in love with you" I looked at my feet as I spoke those words, it would have been impossible to look into his eyes and speak those words, my voice was a mere whisper and my heart was beating loudly the whole while.

"I fell head over heels for you long before you noticed me" I completed and then looked up to Jared. Jared's eyes were soft, full of affection, his lips were slightly parted and he looked awestruck, "what?" I asked as I chuckled and looked away. "I am just debating how I was so blind?" that made me look at him again. "What do you mean?" I asked a bit puzzled, I was always curious to know what Jared was thinking.

"How did I not notice you before? I am so sorry, I must have hurt you so much" Jared looked genuinely guilty of what he did. I was always upset by the fact that he did not notice me but looking back at it now, I realized that it only happened for good. Had he noticed me before I would never been so clear and sure of my feelings for him.

"I know a way you can make it up to me" I answered with a smirk, "How is that?" Jared was as curious as every. "The list is long" I teased, "From where should I start Miss?" Jared started to play along, "Let me think" I pretended for a while before I bought my lips closer to his and then spoke in a whisper "we can start from this."

Jared's hands cupped my cheeks before he bent down to kiss me passionately, my hands found their way to his muscular chest and I could feel his heartbeats matching the pace of mine.

Finally, when the kiss broke Jared looked into my eyes and spoke "I am in love with you Kim Connweller, and I cannot make speeches to confess my love for you but what I do know is that I need you forever, I need to look at you, I need to hear your voice, but more than that I need to know that you are happy and safe wherever you are. I need you because I love you, I know that you have become the most essential part of my life, in this very limited time you have become a part of my life – the most important part and it is impossible for me to let you go, I don't know if any of this makes sense to you but all I know is that I am in love with you Kim and no one can take that away"

"It makes perfect sense to me" I assured him with a shy smile, and in that moment I did not only look into his eyes and saw the perfect present, the most amazing confession I could have dreamt of but also I saw the beginning of a beautiful relationship and an even more beautiful future.
