That sheepish look on his face was one she knew so well from the early days of their relationship, the lines of that expression engraved forever in her memory. It warmed her heart to see it now, even as the cold rain seeped further into her clothing.
She was as ready as she'd ever be, but there was one thing she needed before she could go on. "Just one thing," she said quietly before reaching up to hook her free hand around the back of his neck and pull him in close. She pressed her lips to his, a firm, quick kiss to give them both strength. Her fingers brushed back the wet strands of hair that were clinging to the side of his face as she pulled back, and she finally nodded. "Now I'm ready. Let's go."
