Bone Deep (22 page)

“Because you were wrong.” She holds up the piece of paper, rattling it. “A jerk would’ve never
poured his soul out
like this. Krister, this is the sweetest thing anyone’s ever done for me. I will never ever forget this.”

“But will you
forgiv
e me?”

She smiles, her full lips parting just enough to show her top row of teeth, the slight overlap of them. It lights up her face, reaches all the way to her eyes.
“Only if we can both promise something.”

“Anything.”

“No more games. No more lies or secrets or stupid lists…”

I lean down and carefully
press my lips to her neck. “Just us.”

“Then, yes.” She tilts her head to the side, our cheeks brushing as our lips slide closer, closer, closer. “I forgive you.”

And then I kiss her, because kissing her makes everything better.
