If there was anything he'd learned - and retained - it was that you should never put off until tomorrow what you could do today. You might not get the chance if you procrastinated, and he wanted desperately to pick up the pieces of his life and fit them back together until they made a picture he could understand, a picture he wanted. And he knew he wanted Summer to be a part of that, even after only two days. Any girl who had waited for him for four years deserved his trust and yes, his love, and he knew it might take a little bit of time, but as his lips moved slowly against hers, he thought it might not be so difficult to love Summer Roberts at all, even if he had to fall for her all over again. It felt like she might have him head over heels in no time - and he had a feeling it might have been like that all along, since they were kids, no matter how long it had taken him to get up the courage to ask her out, or for her to drum up the courage to kiss him. He wanted to honor that courage, not bury it, and he was determined to make every second count as he hummed softly against her lips, his own forming a smile small enough that they didn't have to break the kiss, not until they were both ready.
