He had no right.

I keep my eyes locked on the man I love with all of my heart. “It wasn’t my fault.”

The sexiest grin spreads over Jase’s face, and he leans closer. “There’s my girl.”

The corner of my mouth lifts as I wrap my arms around his neck and hug him. “Thank you.” When I pull back, I glance at our plates. “Let me warm them.” When Jase begins to move, I give him a look of warning. “Don’t you dare. Let me do this. I need to.”

The grin never leaves his face as I place our plates in the microwave.

And it’s at this moment I know I’ll never be able to stop loving Jase. No man will ever compare to him.

Chapter 22

JASE

Mila manages to eat half of the food, and it makes me fucking happy.

After we’re done, I clear our plates before I wrap my arm around her neck and playfully tug her against me. “Wanna torture me with a movie?”

“I’ll never say no to that,” she teases.

Walking into my room, I shut the door and get comfortable on the bed while Mila scrolls through the selection.

She picks ‘Man Of Steel’, and it has my eyebrow shooting up. “You seriously have a thing for Clark Kent?”

Mila wags her eyebrows as she comes to lie next to me. “He’s hot and has abs for days. Plus, he’s badass.”

I drop my voice low as I murmur, “Sounds like you’re describing me.”

Mila lets out a burst of laughter. “Yeah, just add arrogant.”

“You love my arrogant ass,” I joke, and then realize my mistake too late. “Shit, sorry, I…”

“It’s okay, Jase.” Mila glances at the TV, and when she brings her eyes back to mine, I see the love in her eyes, and it makes my heart beat faster. “It’s the one thing I’m not ashamed of. You’re an incredible man. I don’t regret loving you. Not at all.”

It’s on the tip of my tongue to tell her how I feel, but not wanting her to think I’m just saying it for the sake of repeating the words, I pull her closer to me, and I press a soft kiss to her mouth. “You make me want to be incredible.”

Mila gets comfortable next to me and rests her head on my chest. It’s become our position in bed.

Moving my left hand to her back, I draw lazy patterns over the length of it as we watch ‘Man of Steel’, aka me.

I grin at myself.

Yeah, I’ll be her superman.

Considering what happened yesterday, we had a good night.

Mila doesn’t argue when I walk with her out of the dorm, and I take it as a win. Fallon and Jade walk with us, and when we reach their class, Fallon says, “We’ll be with Mila all day, Jase. You should get back to your own lectures.”

“Yes,” Mila instantly agrees. “I’ll be fine.” She even grins at me. “Besides, Jade can kick ass better than you.”

My eyes dart to Jade’s, and it has her nodding. “I’ll take good care of her.”

Fuck. This is hard.

Taking hold of Mila’s hand, I pull her to the side and wrap my arms around her. “Call me the second anyone gives you shit.”

She nods against my chest.

Over her head, I lock eyes with Fallon. “You let me know the instant anything happens.”

“I will,” my cousin promises.

I press my lips to Mila’s hair and take a deep breath of her.

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

She begins to pull back, but I tighten my hold on her. “Just a second longer.” Mila melts back against me, and I soak in the feel of her in my arms.

It feels like I’m abandoning her.

Christ.

I take a deep breath, filling my lungs with her scent before I pull back.

Mila gives me a warm smile and standing on her tiptoes, she presses a kiss to my cheek. “I’ll be fine. Don’t worry.”

I clench my teeth as I watch her walk into the class with Fallon and Jade.

For a second, I close my eyes and thrust a hand through my hair in frustration as I turn around to walk away. I only manage two steps before I spin around and jog into the class.

Just like yesterday, Mila looks up at me with surprise on her face. Leaning down, I slip my hands over her cheeks and press my mouth to hers.

But unlike yesterday, it’s not quick. I linger as I drink in the feel of her.

I fucking love you, Mila.

Letting go of her, I walk out, and I keep going until I walk into Hunter’s room.

My best friend's eyes land on me, and it’s all it takes for me to spill my guts, “I love her.”

“I know,” he murmurs as he closes the distance between us. He places his hand on my shoulder. “Did you tell Mila?”

I shake my head. “Not yet. I don’t want her thinking I’m just saying the words because of what happened.” Letting out a sigh, I walk to his bed and drop down on it. “I was so close to telling her last night.”
