They had been through a rollercoaster relationship for five years, and only they truly understood the depth of their feelings at that moment.
In a quiet voice, Melissa brought up, “You mentioned going slow, but what about last night...” Marcus responded with a light chuckle, soothingly rubbing her back as he asked, “Didn't you want that too? Despite being upset, you didn’t say no, right?” A woman couldn't win such an argument against him.
Eagles.
Despite her intelligence, she chose not to snap back. She redirected the conversation and asked, “Marcus, are you sure you want to start fresh with me?” Marcus responded not with words but by wrapping her in a hug.
Suddenly, Melissa felt the urge to cry. She nestled her face into his chest and said with a softened voice, “But we need to agree on one thing. You have to respect me and see me as your equal.
Marcus, it's comforting to be cared for by you, but I also value the person I've become.” She felt so distinct from him, and after being apart for so long, she wouldn't make the first move towards him unless he showed real commitment, even if he was available and there were no rivals.

She rested her hand on his shoulder and explained, “It's something I ordered.” He then released her, and she went to the door to open it.

He removed it and stood before the mirror, attaching the lapel pin to his tie and shirt collar.
After admiring it for a while, he murmured, “I really like this." He was aware that Melissa tended to be quite economical. Her closet was hardly filled with clothes, yet she had purchased a lapel pin worth a fortune for him. Suddenly, Marcus grasped Melissa's intentions and what she really wanted from this relationship.
Without saying more, he embraced her tightly.
