Summary
“But the real question is, do you believe in love?”
My second commander is in a standstill - a pause. Still chewing, grin still there, gray eyes still on me. Another eruption of cheers and hooting sounds from another corner. Someone probably lost a bet.
“Yes.”
There is a calm silence between us.
“And you?”
When I look up in reaction to his question, Gray Eyes is back on me again. Same gentle eyes, same soft smile. Same freckles that I swear seem to dance under these dim tavern lights...But as I pull myself away from my thoughts, I remember my answer, which has been the same my whole life. Smiling, I place my beer down again after one more sip.
“No, but I do believe in heartbreak.”
