“How can we build a relationship on a lie, Jeffrey? How can we move forward knowing how this started?” I grab her hand, and she lets me. I wait for our gazes to connect before I keep speaking. “It wasn’t a lie. Nothing I felt for you was a lie, Ariel. Were you lying about what you felt for me?” “No.” “So then, we both got what we wanted. Don’t you realize that I did what I did because I never wanted to date any other girl, never wanted to use what I learned from you with anyone else? That everything I did with you was always about you? I just needed you to see it, to see me, to give me a chance to be something other than your friend, Ariel. I wanted to be your prince, and you’re the only girl I want to be my princess.” “God, you’re so cheesy,” she says, tears filling her eyes, but a smile graces her lips. “You love it. And I love you.” Her breath hitches. “I think I did from the first time you scowled at me and told me you weren’t my sweetheart. So now I’m just asking for the chance to love you for real, forever . . . as long as you’ll have me.” Nice Guys Still Finish is coming March 2nd!
