His hand slipped behind my neck as I unbuckled my seat belt and let him pull me closer to him. When his lips crashed against mine, he made a low growling sound from the back of his throat. My insides quivered while he kissed me more passionately.

When we finally pulled away from one another, we rested our foreheads together.

“I want so badly to do things the right way. To sweep you off your feet, Tay. But I have to ask you right now before I burst. I swear to you I’ll make it up to you and ask again, but I have to ask now.”

A tear slowly made its way down my cheek as I held my breath.

“Will you marry me, Taylor?”

A sob slipped from my lips as I pulled back and looked into his beautiful blue eyes. My tears spilled out as Jase reached up and wiped them away.

“Yes! Yes! Yes! A million and one times yes!”

I’d never seen Jase smile so big before. “You have no idea how happy I am right now!”

“You?” I said with a giggle. “I’m pretty sure I have an idea.”

“Buckle up, I need to get going.”

Doing as he asked, I quickly buckled up. My heart was beating rapidly and I couldn’t contain my smile.

Jase asked me to marry him.

Marry him!

When he reached for my hand, butterflies danced around like mad. I wonder if I’ll ever tire of his touch? Never.

Pulling up, Jase parked and jumped out of his truck. He ran over to my side, opened the door and pulled me out. Holding me in his arms, my feet dangled while he kissed me again.

“Don’t say anything to my mom!”

Nodding. “I won’t.”

“I’ve got to run.”

Running back around the truck, Jase jumped in and rolled the passenger side window down.

“I love you!”

“Wait!” I called. “Is your mom expecting me? Do I just walk in?”

He flashed his dimples and nodded. “Just walk in, sweetness.”

Putting the truck in drive, he started to take off slowly. “I love you too! Be careful!”

“Always!” he shouted and took off. I stood there like a silly girl who had just received her first kiss. Watching his truck until I couldn’t see it anymore, I wrapped my arms around my body and started running in place as I let out a squeal of delight.

“My . . . that must have been some kiss.”

I spun on my heels and looked at Whitley. “Oh . . . um . . . well.” I let out a soft chuckle. There was no way I could hide how happy I felt. My cheeks actually hurt from smiling so big.

Whitley w

alked down the front porch steps toward me. “That smile is the most brilliant smile I think I’ve ever seen.”

Covering my cheeks with my hands, I could feel my face on fire.

Stopping right in front of me, she tilted her head and examined me. My hands moved to my mouth where I tried like hell not to smile. The back of my throat ached as I attempted to hold it in. There were no words I could say. If I tried to talk I was surely going to laugh or cry.
