His sweet, clean scent calmed her, brought her peace. He rested his head against her cheek, his eyes closed, breathing softly. She lifted her left hand and studied the silver band with the dainty infinity symbol in diamonds, and tears dripped down her face as she silently cried. She loved him so much. Forever.
Your forever. My forever. Forever is forever.
Beth breathed along with Harrison, pacing hers to his, even as she held back a sob.
“Of course. I’ll read it every night. I promise,” Beth whispered brokenly, turning her face to press a lingering kiss to the smooth skin of his forehead. “Our story, our world, remember?”
Harrison smiled faintly, his eyes still closed. “I want to live in our world for a little bit longer.”
“You will,” Beth promised. “Always.”
She wiped an arm across her damp face and took the first sheet of paper from the pile, cleared her throat against the catch in it, and read out loud. Her voice wavered at first, but as she spoke, the strength of it grew. It was their story, after all, and she knew it well.
“I met Harrison Caldwell on the first snowfall of the season, and like the fall of the snow, steady and sure, I fell in love with him.”
