“Red?” she whispered.

“Yes,” he replied, pulling her into his arms.

“Thanks for letting me stay here tonight and for not turning me away after everything that’s happened between us.”

“You don’t have to—”

“I do. I don’t know how to tell you…” She propped herself up on her elbow. “A thank you just doesn’t seem like it’s enough and it kind of cheapens the moment. I want you to know how important you are to me. How important you’ve always been to me.”

Her admission touched him. He knew that he was important to her, but he’d been waiting to hear her say it for so long.

“When Uncle Cal told me about his illness, there was never a question,” she continued. “I knew where I wanted to be and who I wanted to be with.” She looked him in his eyes and offered him a small smile. “I missed you.”

She knew where she wanted to be, and who she wanted to be with. He couldn’t believe it.

“I missed you, too,” he admitted. She rested against him again and he squeezed her tightly. Maybe there was hope for them after all? He kissed the top of her head. “And you never have to thank me for being there for you.” That’s a given. “Now, get some sleep. I’ll be here when you wake up.”
