"Sienna, with you, I feel like I'm in a different world from my dramatic world that is full of lies." Zachary continued. "I feel comfortable around you."
Sienna found herself staring at him. She could tell he meant every word he spoke.
That realization slowly warmed her chest. Still, she said nothing, simply waiting for him to continue.
Zachary's hand tightened slightly around hers.
"Since then, I started thinking and wanted to know more about who you were." His smile returned. "And then you stubbornly refused to leave my mind. That's why I believe you're the one for me, and I can't wait to marry you and spend the rest of my life together."
Sienna's breath caught in her chest.
His confession was so honest that it took her a moment longer to find the right words to respond.
"...Zach. Perhaps it's because you concealed who you are. That's why I feel comfortable talking to you openly."
"Well, maybe." He nodded. Agree with her. "That probably helped."
Then he smiled.
