With an adorable mixture of handsomeness and clumsiness, he’d been somebody who always fought with her and yet when required, fought for her. He made mistakes, but was man enough to admit them.

He had sneaked into her heart like a thief without meaning to, and she’d fallen for him without wanting to.
