Liam's POV
Damn. My heart felt like it was about to burst out of my chest. I didn't even know what possessed me to say all that to Ella. Maybe it was reckless, maybe it was too much, too soon, but I couldn't hold it back. She needed to know how real, how sincere my feelings were.
Because the truth was simple: I could already see her in my future. If it were up to me, she'd be the woman I'd grow old with.
Now here I was, waiting for her answer, and I swear I was seconds away from a nervous breakdown. Time really did stand still. My pulse hammered so loud it drowned out everything else.
And then—she smiled.
She smiled like the world had just split open and heaven poured through. My angel.
"I do understand what you mean... I want that too…" she said softly.
Hallelujah! I swear the angels were singing with my heart and soul because I had never—ever—felt this kind of happiness before.
