when he kissed her on the lips, she kissed him back. He let his lips linger for a while, then pulled back, tracing his finger down her cheek. “I’ll see you later tonight, right?”
Holly felt a familiar warm glow starting in her center. “Of course.” Her voice sounded a little breathless, but then Nick’s kisses always made her sound that way.
Holly leaned back and watched him walk away, marveling at how funny life was. Nine months ago, Stan’s leaving had turned her world upside down. She had been hurt, scared, and miserable, thinking she’d never be happy again. But what she had considered to be the worst thing to ever happen to her had actually turned out to be the best. It had given her the opportunity to have a second chance at happiness, and in the process she’d gained a new career, an education, and, most importantly ... love.
The end.
