That’s what I did and, in the end, it worked out.
I reach for Cody’s hand and, under the table, I grab it. He squeezes it gently, wrapping his finger around mine, and turns to look at me. He’s smiling softly, and I can almost see my reflection in his eyes. He doesn’t even need to say it; he loves me.
I mouth the words to him, moving my lips so slightly no one else can see it, and he just leans into me and kisses the corner of my mouth.
“Love you too, babe,” he whispers, and I feel that gentle feeling of happiness opening its wings inside of me. Who knew that our story would end like this? A happy ending to call my own.
“Let’s get out of here?” I whisper back at him, and his face lights up with a grin.
“I thought you’d never ask.”
Happiness and love—I got it all.
And now it’s time we fade to black so I can go enjoy my HEA, know what I mean?
;)
