“Of course I mean it. I’d go to war for your daughter. For you, too.” “Why?” she whispers, and I think of a hundred ways I can answer that question. Because I’m attracted to you. Because I’m determined to show you there are good men out there. Because it’s the bare minimum of what you deserve. Because I’m fucking falling in love with you, and I’d let you break my heart if that’s what you wanted. “Because y’all are mine.” I tuck a loose piece of hair behind her ear. “And I protect what’s mine.”

“Okay, let’s just get this straight, yeah?” He stands up to his full height. “You are mine. So your problems are mine, your hurt is mine, your happiness is mine to share, and your achievements are mine to cheer you on for. The same way I’m yours. Every breath in my lungs, every cell in my body, is yours. If you want something, fuckin’ take it because it’s my privilege to give it to you. “I don’t want to hear any more of this ‘not your problem’ bullshit because if it’s a problem for you, then it’s a problem for me, and I’m gonna fuckin’ deal with it. I’m not Marshall, I’m not your roommate, I’m not your parents. I’m not gonna let you down. Because you and me, we belong to each other now, okay?”

“No sleeping.” His lips kick up into a smile. “I’m not sleeping.” “You always say that when I catch you sleeping.” “I’m never sleeping when I close my eyes like this with you.” “Then what are you doing?” He pauses and I think he might not answer. But then he says, “I’m committing the moment to memory.”

“He reminds me of my friend Emmett, a professional bull rider on the WBRF circuit. He travels a lot, so we don’t see each other often, but when we do, we just pick up where we left off.”
