Her lips part trying to say something, and finally, with a pained breath, she says the words that completely crumble what little resolve I have left.

"Do you love me?" He whispers, keeping his eyes on mine.
Even if I try to deny it, I can't lie to him. My feelings for him are written in everything I do.
"More than you know."

"Are we crazy?" My voice is barely a whisper. "It's been what? A little over a month?"
"Sixty-two days.” He grins. It's so bright that it sends an ache straight through my chest.
"You've been counting?" I ask softly.
He nods as sadness flickers in his eyes.
"Good things don't happen to men like me," he starts while holding my gaze. "So when a good thing like you comes into my life, you bet your ass I'm counting the days."
