" Kaylee, this means something to me.” His hands trailed down my arms to cup my elbows, and his gaze held mine. “With any
luck, we’re going to have millions of moments over the course of eternity, and I plan to love every one of them. But we’ll never
have this moment again, and this is very important to me.” The twists of blue in his eyes coiled so tightly the color was almost gone,
lost among pale shades of a need so deep it couldn’t possibly be captured in a kiss, or a touch. “I need to know that this is important
to you, too. I need to know that this isn’t like last time. That you’re not doing this just so you can say you’ve done it. Because that’s
not good enough for me. That’s not good enough for us. "
