“The minute I saw him. No, the second I saw him, my world froze. Actually, it was just my brain, because my body, skin, and bones warmed up just with the sight and memory of him. I couldn’t think, hear, or move. All I could do was stare at the man I thought was the most beautiful specimen on this planet. The man I left, the man I had to leave.”

“Nothing could compare to waking up with Nora by my side. I had yearned for this for so long. I blinked my eyes a few times to make sure I was awake and that I wasn’t in a dream. No, no dream. She was very real and exactly where she was meant to be—with me.”

“I held my breath and watched him pick one up and bring it to his mouth.
He admired the swirl of dark cream again before taking a bite. His eyes widened, and he let out a moan of pleasure. He sat down on the stool, like his body couldn’t handle the emotions the flavors caused him.
“Man, I need another one.” This time, he grabbed one with white frosting. Lemon and strawberry.
He groaned and I thought my insides were going to melt. My heart was certainly beating at an odd rhythm.

“I’m not going anywhere, I can’t. Not again. Leaving you… not coming back to you the first time—it broke me. How could I ever think that was best for you, for us? All I did was hurt us both. I’ll carry the guilt. I won’t lie about that. What happened to Charlie, to you, it’s always going to weigh on me. But you’re right. I need you, Cupcake. I can’t help feeling guilty, but I’d rather feel it right here with you, so you can slap me silly when I need it.”
“How about this? How about I kiss you silly instead of striking you? You think that would help you feel better?”
“I think I can handle that. Although the force of your kisses is so powerful, my heart feels like it will explode.”
“Oh, well, we can’t have that now, can we?”
“The heck we can’t!”
