Chapter 87. Certainty

Ellie's POV

Is it only me, or does it imply the same to him as well? Well, that I don’t know. What I am so certain about is that he also relishes this moment as much as I do. He values this as much as I do. He is lost in this as much as I am. This moment, and the others that we have had, are as important and memorable to him as it are to me.

And those are enough reasons to make me bask in the warmth of his embrace and this moment wholly, surrendering my all—body, soul, heart, and mind. All unto him, I surrender. A pang of waves of possessiveness washes over me, like it always does in moments like this, filling me with a heady sense of euphoria. It is a primal instinct, a fierce longing to claim him as my own, to hold onto this moment for eternity. To have him for eternity.

I affirm that it has been impossible for me not to believe that these kisses mean something more. They are not just mere gestures, but declarations of a love that transcends time
