Excerpt:
Tangled in the Laces by Toni Aleo
When the song ended, Karson stopped moving and
slowly lifted his hands up to frame her face, his eyes searching hers. Softly,
he said, “I can’t sing for shit, but I will pay to have someone sing to you. I
don’t dance well, but I’ll do it just for the chance to touch you. I’m not one
to listen to guys sing to find the perfect song for a girl, but I did for you.
Most of all, I don’t usually pour my heart out to a person in front of a full
coffee shop because I’m not that much of a romantic, but for you, I’d do it
all. I’d do anything to be with you, and I’ve waited for someone like you my
whole life. It’s true, all of it, and I would be the luckiest man in the world
if you’d agree to go out on a date with me. Please give me the chance to make
you fall for me, like I have been falling since the first moment I set eyes on
you.”
Never in her life had she had someone so ruthlessly
come after her. Her heart pounded in her chest as he held her gaze. His eyes
pleaded with her, begging for that chance. She wanted to scream yes and never
let go of him, but there was a part of her that had her frozen with fear. “I’m
terrified of you, Karson. You don’t know what you are getting into. I’m just
now picking up the pieces of my life. I can’t redo it all when you run for the
hills.”
“I’m not going anywhere, Lacey. I’m here. I’m
yours. Just give me the chance.”
Biting into the inside of her cheek so hard it
hurt, she closed her eyes as she leaned her forehead against his lips, taking
in a deep breath. She was given a second chance at life to live it, not to
hide. She had to live her life to the fullest, and a part of her knew that she
wouldn’t be living if Karson weren’t a part of her life. Yes, she was
terrified, and yes, there was a chance that he would completely break her, but
she couldn’t help but try. She didn’t care how crazy it was. She felt the same
thing he did. So she slowly nodded, as she looked back up into the caramel eyes
she craved to look into daily.
A grin came over his lips, and she returned it
before whispering, “Yes.”
