Chapter One hundred sixty-five: Sweet Moment

***There is no better feeling than to love someone and to be loved in return by that same person***

All my life I thought my dream of being loved in return by someone to who I dedicated my life wouldn't happen anymore.

I've already stopped believing and used to think that maybe Luke and I were not really meant for each other.

But having him next to me at this very moment felt surreal. I still can't believe he's now holding me by his arms and telling me the words I only imagined in my head when I was younger.

"Hmm... why?"

My eyebrows drew a straight line when he asked me all of a sudden.

"What do you mean why?" I asked in response.

"Why are you staring at me, sweetheart?" He asked again as he kissed me on the forehead.

"Oww!" A giggle escaped my lips and I looked away. "How did you know I'm staring at you?"

"I just know it," he shrugged, pulling me even closer.
