Kellan's POV
As I lay in the silent aftermath, my fingers drew soft circles on Olivia's back, feeling her even breathing against me. A soft chuckle escaped my lips and broke the stillness, though the weight of what had just passed between them was still settling.
“Why are you laughing?" she asked, her face tipped up to me, an amused almost nervous glint in her eye. Her cheeks were red, her hair spilling over onto her shoulder as she lay and watched me.
“It is nothing," I said, reaching to brush a strand of hair off her face."I just didn't expect the night to end this way but I'm glad it did.”
She chuckled low and leaned into my hand, and I knew right then she was relaxing. "Me too," she whispered low enough her voice wasn't much more than a murmur over the hum of the car.
The solemnity of the nod I gave sent a wave of heat coursing through me. "Olivia, I really don't think you truly understand the implication of how much this would change for me.”
