She leaned forward and kissed him, still holding his face in her hands. She stroked her hands through his hair and then over his cheeks again, smiling a tender smile all the while.
"We make quite a pair, don't we? We've made mistakes. But I like to think that we haven't given up. And that maybe we're stronger for it all. It makes me hurt that you've given up so much for me. Your family. The place you grew up in. And you gave it up, bought a beautiful house you knew I'd love all because you loved me. If I don't forgive you then I'm denying myself that love and I don't want to live without you, Matt. Or your love. Not anymore. The last months have been the worst of my life. I don't ever want to relive that kind of agony again."
He pulled her into his arms, leaning forward so they didn't tumble into the sand. He held her so tightly she couldn't breathe, but she didn't care. They were together. Finally. Without all the hurt and pain of the past. Without reservations or barriers.
As soon as she'd told him she loved him and that she forgave him it was like the weight of the world had been lifted. She felt lighter and freer than she'd ever felt. She felt…happy. Joyously, giddily happy.
