Chapter 86 For Pretend

• I couldn’t breathe. Images flashed through my head faster than I could fully comprehend them. Asher and I holding hands. Asher opening doors for me. Asher kissing my cheek or my forehead or the back of my hand.
• Asher kissing me softly on the lips. Introducing me as his girlfriend. Sitting side by side at the movie theater with a single bucket of popcorn between us and his arm thrown over the back of my seat.
• Being Asher’s girlfriend was a fantasy I thought I’d never see bear fruit. Yet here we were, with Asher suggesting it.
