Chapter 59 Cello

• Holding her close to me, I look into her eyes and don’t hold anything back.
• “I love you, Mariselle,” I say, and I put my finger over her lips to keep her from saying anything back. “You don’t have to say it back. I know this is soon, and it’s crazy, but I don’t ever want to keep any part of me from you. I love you, and I want to tell you so you know everything in my heart.”
• I take my finger away and replace it with my lips before she can speak. I pick her up and carry her back to our bed, lying down on top of her. I kiss her until I can’t just kiss her anymore. I need more, and I want her, skin on skin.
