“I can daydream that it’s you touching me,” I shrug.
“What are we doing?”
“I’m following your lead, Val. I know what my future looks like now, it’s up to you how quickly that dream future comes true for me,” I answer, standing up and pulling my pajama pants on. “I love you, and I know I need to earn your love back. If you give me a second chance like we’re talking about doing, I promise you on my life that I will never leave you again or let you go. I’m yours for the rest of my life, Valerie Russo, if you’ll have me. If you change your mind, then that’s your right. I will still be here for Freya. She’s mine now.”
