Chapter 13

Jane stood outside the flight gate exit waiting for him. She was so nervous that she hardly even noticed the odd glances from strangers as they passed her on their way to baggage claim. She knew she shouldn’t be nervous, that she and Caleb had spoken nearly every day since he’d been away, but she was nervous just the same.

A pilot paused to look at her. He smiled and said, “I might be a frog now, but I know if a woman as beautiful as you are were to kiss me, I’d change into a prince.”

Jane glanced down at the homemade glitter sign she had hanging around her neck—

PRINCE CHARMING

—and then she looked back up at the pilot and blushed.

“You’re certainly very charming,” she said, “but my prince is on his way.”

The pilot grinned and carried on with his bag, replying as he passed by, “And he’s a lucky prince at that.”

When she saw him coming, it was from a long way off.

Caleb was taller than she remembered him being, his head above most of the others walking toward her. He had his duffel slung over his shoulder and he was wearing a black T-shirt and torn blue jeans. His hair was a little longer than it had been when he had left, but she could clearly see the highlights they’d put there catching the sun coming in from the high terminal windows. And even though she couldn’t take her eyes off him, she didn’t miss the looks he got from every girl and woman he passed, and a few others he even got from men.

She knew he had seen her when a smile flashed on his face and he quickened his step. A moment later and his duffel was on the ground at his feet and she was in his arms, being turned around in the air. She buried her fingers in his hair and looked down at his upturned face. His smile seemed wider and whiter than ever against the several days’ worth of stubble around his gorgeous mouth, and his green eyes seemed to sparkle with a new intensity, a deeper happiness.

Perhaps, Jane thought, from having made the live show. Or maybe, she hoped, from having finally come home. She meant to ask, but then he set her feet on the ground again and kissed her.

His lips were softer than she remembered, even though his kiss was firm and filled with need, and his tongue tasted of coffee and of mint. He pulled his lips away, held her head between his hands, and looked into her eyes.

“Do you know how much I love you?”

“How much do you love me?” she asked.

“So much that I can’t wait to marry you.”

“Good,” she said. “Because I was worried maybe now that you’re famous and everything, you might have changed your mind about marrying a lowly old meter maid.”

“Famous? The first episode hasn’t even aired yet.”

Jane smiled. Then she brushed his T-shirt with her hand. “I got glitter all over you.
