Gaze Quote by Stella Rhys
““At this point I’m pretty sure I have everything I need to be happy,” I said, blushing a little as I looked up to meet his eye. “I’m pretty sure I do too,” he said, holding his gaze. “Actually I know that if you ever so much as think you’re missing something, I’ll find it for you,” he promised sweetly, rubbing his thumb over the back of my hand. “Because I’ve honestly only ever wanted you to be happy.””
