The tears came rushing back to her eyes again, and this time, she couldn't blink them back. She gently pulled her hands away from his and looked down at the table. Quietly, almost heartbroken, she said, "Yeah... okay... I'll move back out if that's what you want..." Though that most definitely was not what Chloe wanted. Her tears splashed silently onto the table.
"Chloe." Asher said again, very boldly.
"I love you more than anything in the world." Asher told her, and he didn't say that very often about anyone or anything,
"I don't want you to move out. But if you feel like we're moving to fast, or your gut says something. Go with it." Asher told her.
"Go with your gut." He told her, his voice starting to get softer and quieter.
"Going with your gut is the best option. And I completely understand either way." He told her, he didn't know how much it was going to take to get it through her head that he loved her so very much and he did NOT want her to move out. But if it was what she needed, he'd support her, he wasn't going to force her to be there.
