Rachel wrapped her arms around his neck. “Caleb and I had a very good talk the other day. He reminded me that we can’t change who we are. All we can change is how we deal with it, and who we allow to help us. I’ve tried safe and secure. As you pointed out to me once, it’s a lonely life.”
She drew in a long breath. “I can live without normal. But not without love. Can you give me love?”
His soft dark eyes shone with the light she’d seen in them the first time he’d ever looked at her. The light of reality. And now the light of love.
“I can do that,” he whispered against her lips. “Can you give me forever?”
Rachel laughed through tears. “Oh, Eric, I can definitely do that.”
