Because he was smart. And because even in the short amount of time they’d been together, he’d learned more about her than anyone else in her entire life. “I believe in signs. I never did before but…I dreamed about you.”

“You did?”

She nodded. “I think I have for a while, I just…I didn’t know it was you. But now…”
She swallowed hard. “I should have waited for you. It’s the biggest regret I have. I’m sorry I didn’t wait.
