“Are you saying you love me?” he asked, his face all-seriousness.
She pushed his shoulder in frustration. “Fine! You are making me say it first! I love you!”
He stared at her for a moment. He was so still and quiet that Jo could hear the pounding of her heart in her ears.
“Well it’s a good thing I still feel the same way, Josephine March,” he finally said.
Jo looked at him, flabbergasted. “Are you serious, Teddy? You are not jesting me?”
“A moment with you, and all those feelings I have had for you all these years came rushing back. But I didn’t want to scare you away. I thought, if I cannot have you as a wife, then I would have you any way I can,” he admitted, staring into her eyes. “You would not marry me then, but would you be willing to marry me now?”
“I would never make a flawless wife. I will argue with you and I will probably make a bad hostess. I will keep writing and I would still like more of my work to be published one day; I might even want to be published in my own name. My fingers will forever be ink-stained, and I might get along with the boys more than I would with the silly girls that attend your parties. Will you still have me even now?”
“I would still have you even if you promise to be all those things and more,” Laurie answered loyally.
He raised a warm hand and cupped Jo’s cheek. Jo rubbed her cheek against his palm.
“I want to marry you, Jo. I want to spend my life with you.”
“Then yes, Teddy. I will marry you,” she finally answered, leaning forward. Laurie took this as an invitation to finally give her a kiss.
