““I kissed his forehead. “You don’t have to thank me. I told you, I do anything for someone I care about.” He pulled away and looked up at me. “You said you do anything for someone you love.” I didn’t know how to respond to that. We were in such a precarious place. I didn’t want to say anything that might scare him away or let him know how I truly felt, because at the end of the day, I loved him. It was that simple. Instead I gave him a small smile. “I did say that, didn’t I?””
