Say You Still Love Me

“You’re telling us about our past.” Kyle’s arms tighten around me. “I’m more interested in knowing about our future.”

“I knew I loved you since that day, sitting up here on the rocks, when you made me own up to our bet.” Locking his fingers with mine, he goes on. “I have loved you every day since then.” His golden eyes settle on me, and there’s a slight sheen to them that makes my heart ache. “I still love you, even if you don’t feel the same. Even if you never want to see me again.” He swallows hard. “What’s my lie, Piper?”

“My best memories of my life will always be here, with you,”

I’m going to be madly in love with Piper Calloway for the rest of my life and I only just met her.

“I love you, too, Piper. Always. Remember that.”

“I love you so much,”

“I know you think I’m hard on you, and demanding. And maybe I am. But everything I do—everything I’ve ever done over the years—I’ve done only with your best interest at heart. You know that, right?”

“What?” She giggles. “No. We’re not compatible. Eric’s a Sagittarius and I’m a Pisces. It would never work.”

And Why would you hurt me like that?

“What will you say to Kyle if you see him again?”
