CHRIS' POV

I love her scent – now she smells like strawberries and champagne at night she smells like cherry blossoms – her hair smells like apples. I wonder how her lips taste like – yeah wondering all these times at times even dreaming about it.

As my lips touched her earlobe I know she would blush and I would love to see that. She tried to hide by taking a sudden interest on the floor so I held her cheeks so we're at eye level. She's as red as an apple and pouting.

"don't pout babe, I might lose control and kiss you senselessly." She stopped pouting but bit her lower lip oh this woman will be the death of me. For I might lose control I used my thumb to pull her lower lip.

"I told you to stop pouting but you bit your lip – didn't you know that its sexy enough when you pout and then you bit your lips? Really Jane?" I sighed as I rest my forehead in hers. A few seconds later she held my wrists that made me lift my forehead from hers so I can look in her eyes properly

"why? Why are you doing this? Why are you saying all those things? Why Grey?" she asked uncertainty and confusion lacing in her voice

"isn't obvious Jane?" she shook her head

"I do all of these because I just not like you I think – no I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU Jane!" I told her without blinking and as she look me in the eye I know she's assessing every word I said and me.

"why me?" she then asked again?

"I don't know either, what I know is that you make me feel things I haven't felt with anyone else."

She's pouting again

"don't." she just look at me quizzically with creased brows

"pouting unless you want me to kiss you babe." Then I smiled this time she just pursed her lips – smart girl.

I know from the looks of it she will not say anything but what she did next took me by surprised – she hugged me.

I was taken aback but hugged her back after a few seconds. Then she said the words ive been needing to hear.

"I like you too, Grey." I held her tighter until she told me she cant breathe

"you don't know how happy am I to know that the person I love likes me too and is about to marry me." I told her as I once again held her cheeks and she gave a heart stopping smile I was about to kiss her when she yawned – talk about wrong timing.

"let's sleep Grey, I need to gain energy right?" she said smirking ah such a tease

"don't I get to have a good night kiss?" I asked as we approach her room

"don't push it Grey." She said as she twists the door knob

"okay for now. Good night babe sweet dreams."

"good night, Grey." And with that her room swallowed her

I can say that it was the best sleep ive had in years – knowing that the person I love likes me too is good enough for me.

I cant help smiling ever since I woke up. After their morning jog, they were briefed by the UDT/SEAL instructors. They're wearing white shirts with their last name on it, olive green shorts that's 3 inches above their knees and sneakers.

I cant help but check out my girl, wearing that and her hair in a bun style plus her killer legs then I noticed a scar at back of her knee – looks like a gunshot wound – then it reminded me that she too has been to a war.
