He laughed, smiling at her, feeling like he was getting back to solid ground. He brushed his thumb over her cheek. "Maybe I'll pretend to run."

"For my sake, that would be a good idea," she allowed a small smile to come across her lips as she looked at him.

He trailed his thumb along her cheek, smiling back at her. After a minute, he spoke softly, "Yer the only girl for me, Rose."

Rose let out a short bark of laughter. "Sorry. You were probably expecting a lot more from life."

His smile faltered. "What are ya talkin' about, Rosie? Yer perfect. Yer funny and smart, the most beautiful girl I've ever known. So ya had a rough past. That don't change any a' the other stuff."

She blushed, frowning at his words. How could he think she was beautiful? She was lucky he did, but she didn't understand. Okay, maybe her hair was a little...unusual, but she was lanky and her eyes were too far apart and her lips were too big for her face. And the smart, funny part? Well, that was just being facetious.

He watched her, knowing full well what was going on in her head. "Rosie, believe me. Yer definitely all those things, and a million more. And I'm a lucky guy to have ya."

Her heart stopped beating. "...What?" she whispered, surprised she was even able to say that.

He sighed, pressing his forehead against hers, still cradling her face in his hands. His voice was a whisper, "Ya heard me, Rosie..."

"I...I don't understand," she replied, trying not to laugh. She figured it was probably inappropriate to laugh right now.

Moonshine brushed his lips over her forehead gently. "What don't ya understand, Sugar? It's pretty easy. I'm fallin' in love with ya. Fast."

"How can you love me? I...I'm not lovable."

"Baby, what're ya talkin' about? Of course ya are!" He gathered her into his arms, nuzzling her. "I know ya are, 'cause I do."
