I feel so bad, I've been writing this book for over a year. I'm a terrible person 😂

Jace's POV

"In just a few minutes, it will be New Years Eve." I say to Julia.

I'm glad we're back home. I missed it. I missed the memories, my friends.

"Yeah." She sits up. "What's your new years resolution?"

"To kiss you with every chance I get." I smirk

"You already did that in Paris remember?" She teases.

"No, its not enough." I hug her close to me. I playfully kiss her neck as she laughs.

I love this.

I love the fact that I can make her happy. That I can make her smile. I love the fact that I can make her laugh and just forget about everything she's going through.

She's not perfect, but she's Julia Pepper.

And that's all I need.

Most of the time it might look like I always say the perfect things to her but I'm not perfect. Hell, I'm no where near there.

Most of the time I'm just speechless. I have no idea what to say to her. But somehow I find a way. I'm still so very surprised.

She could've had anyone else but she chose me.

I don't know why she did, but she did. And I'm forever grateful to this amazing girl.

She's it for me. I know I might sound cliché about that but it is what it is.

I'm not perfect. It might seem like I am but to the hell I'm not.

I'm not.

And I don't want anyone to see me as that. I have my faults. Each and everyone makes me who I am. And I wouldn't change myself for the world.

I'm only human and I'm gonna make mistakes. Too many to count actually but I'll find a way to learn from them and become just a little bit better.

And I'm glad that she sees that.

She's a beautiful soul.

I look at the clock. Its 11:58.

I look in her dark brown eyes. I have to make this quick.

"I'm glad I'm starting this new year with you. I promise that I'll make you so happy. I wouldn't take back one minute from the day I met you. And I'm not sure you know just as about how much you mean to me but I want you to know that its a whole lot.  You mean every damn thing to me baby. And I might seem like I know everything to say but trust me, I don't. I'm glad you love me for me. "

She shakes her head affectionately.

"I'm so in love with you my Jace." She whispers, her voice filled with so much emotion.

"And I am with you my love." I whisper back to her. I could cry at just how much I love her.

We're not perfect. Trust me, we're beyond that. But somehow we manage to get by.
