Sky drove behind Meg as she turned into a driveway and through a tall white gate. He followed her car past the large farmhouse and barn, to where she stopped in front of a tiny white house. He grabbed his duffel bag from the back seat, and followed her to the front door.

“This is the farm’s guest house,” she explained as she opened the door and turned on the lights.

Sky looked around the simply furnished living room. “Do you always stay here when you come home?”

“Usually. I actually grew up here, in this house.”

He was confused. “But your father doesn’t live here.”

“No, he lives in the house he and my mom bought when they were first married. After I was born and my mom died, he needed help taking care of me, so he moved back here to the farm. My grandmother basically raised me. My Aunt Grace and Uncle Peter came out from the city every weekend to help my grandmother out, and so that I could play with my cousins.”

“Jennifer?”

She nodded her head. “Jen, Pete, and Gina. They’re like my siblings. Jen is really protective of me, like a big sister. And Gina and I are the same age.”

Sky put his arms around Meg. “I like this.”

“What?”

“Peeling back the layers.” He placed a soft kiss on the top of her head before continuing, “I like getting to know you better. I always thought there was more to you than what you let me see, because you dodged so many of my questions, but had no idea what it was you were hiding.”

“I thought you’d walk away from me. That maybe you would think I was too broken, and wasn’t worth fixing.” She shrugged out of Sky’s arms, and sat on an ancient blue and green chintz covered sofa.

“No, baby. Never. You couldn’t get rid of me that easily,” he said, as sat down next to her. He leaned in, placed his hands on either side of her head, and brushed his lips against hers. “I need you to understand that I’m not going anywhere. The moment I first saw you, it was lust at first sight. I’d never seen anyone so exotic, so beautiful before. You literally took my breath away. But then, once we started talking that night, I knew that I liked you. I mean, I really liked you. You listened, you cared. You ‘got’ me, and you wanted to help me. You treated me like a regular person, and not a celebrity. I knew I had to see you again, and get to know you better. And all the time you took care of me after the accident, little by little, I was falling in love with you. I just didn’t realize it until last weekend in Vegas, when I was worried that I was going to lose you. I was too afraid to tell you then. But no matter what happens, Meg, I love you, and I will always love you.”

Meg exhaled and snuggled against Sky’s chest.
