<Happy sigh> What a wonderful part. I loved every word of it, but I think my favourite passage was:
You uncovered the real me - which made me feel vulnerable and scared, so I ran away. Now, I've uncovered the real you. Maybe that makes you feel vulnerable and scared. Maybe you need time to realise that I'm not going to use what I know to hurt you." Her hand inched forward, and her fingertips pressed into the skin of his forearm. "But I'm really hoping you won't run away."
Well done.
Joy,
