Even after all their time together and even having just made love in a sense Katelynn couldn’t fight the blush at his words as her fingers traced random circles and shapes along his skin.
“You’re even more wonderful..” she tried retaliating, unsure how she could even express how she felt for him with words. “You do know how much I love you right? How highly..I think of you..? How strong and brave I think you..are as well..? You have to know by now..”
If he didn’t she had no problem showing him again or telling him until it reached his brain and he believed it.
Oh, he couldn’t resist it any longer. Smiling down at her (and fighting back the embarrassing sting of happy tears in his eyes), Jack gently tilted Katelynn’s chin up and kissed her deeply. He gave a little groan as he tasted himself on her lips, and knew she could probably taste herself on him as well. He hoped she wouldn’t mind, because he needed this like he needed air to breathe.
“It’s b-because of you,” he said, gazing into her eyes as he broke the kiss. “You’re the one who makes me brave.”
