Noah: You’ll just have to wait and see.

CHAPTER TEN

His texts are starting to become a part of my morning, afternoon, and nightly routines. I find myself looking forward to them more than I ever thought possible.

Noah: Put a guy out of his misery and come out with me tomorrow…

Me: You looked perfectly fine this morning.

Noah: I was dying inside, Val. You’re killing me.

Me: Maybe that’s my plan, wait until you give up.

Noah: You don’t want me to give up.

Me: No?

Noah: No. But I’ll text you tomorrow just to make sure.

Me: Night, Noah.

Noah: Night, sweetheart.

CHAPTER ELEVEN

I wake up and instantly grab my phone, wanting to text Val like I have every morning for the past two days. But when I grab my cell, I realize there’s already a text waiting for me. My heart stops when I read it.

Val: Ask me.

Me: Morning, beautiful.

Me: Will you go out with me tomorrow?

Val: Yes.

Me: You’re actually saying yes?

Val: What, you don’t believe me?

Me: It’s just been so long that I honestly don’t know what to do right now.

Val: If you’ve changed your mind…

Me: Don’t you dare take that answer back, I’ve waited too long.

Val: You’re the one that was questioning my answer. ;)

Me: Be ready tomorrow at 7, I have a plan.

Val: What should I wear?

Me: You want my honest answer? ;)

Val: I doubt it…just let me know if it’s fancy.

Me: Wear a dress.

Val: Yes, sir.
