I move my hand from my chest to his mouth. I don’t want him to say another word, giving me excuses for not saying it in return because I want to say it to him, too.
“I love you, Jacob.” His brown eyes widen, and I feel his smile under my hand. I drop my and replace it with my mouth, kissing him senselessly.
His hands tangle in my hair, and I hold the sides of his face as our tongues glide together, sealing those three little words we just said. I love this man, and I’m overflowing with joy knowing he feels the same way about me.
Jacob pulls back and looks at me. “You love me, too? You don’t think I said it too soon?”
Shaking my head, I reply, “No, I don’t think it’s too soon. I wanted to say it to you, but I was afraid you’d think I was moving too fast.”
He smiles. “You did?”
I nod. “I did.”
“I love you,” he says before kissing me again.
As I kiss the man I’m in love with and I now know loves me, too, I’m overwhelmed with happiness. Jacob is everything I’ve wanted in a man for as long as I can remember. After all the struggles I’ve been through in my life––both mentally and physically––I suddenly feel a sense of calm.
Jacob’s and my relationship may still be new, but I have a feeling it will be different than all the rest. It has already been different, and I’m looking forward to all the possibilities for us as a couple. Sometimes life throws curveballs, and sometimes first impressions of people aren’t always accurate. I’m relieved I gave Jacob a second chance after our initial disastrous meeting. Who knew that things would turn out so amazing with this man? I certainly didn’t, but I’m grateful it did.
Happy New Year and new love to me!

“I need a favor.”
“Well hello to you, too,” I say to my best friend Henry Black. “You missed poker last month.”
“I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t important.”
“Okay shoot.”
