Did you ever think we’d date?”
I open my mouth, struggling to find the right thing to say. All that comes out, though, is a single word. The truth. “Yes.”

And with those words, the barriers I’ve put up to shield myself from the world are finally knocked down. The boxes where I’ve locked my feelings away completely disintegrate. Until it’s just Molly and me and that force that’s been pulling me toward her since the very beginning. But neither of us is fighting it anymore.
