"I can't afford a diamond ring right now, but I promise I'll get you one someday. Marry me after graduation. I really want to marry you as soon as I can."
"I really want to marry you as soon as I can." Aiden Shaw had said those words, too.
'Maybe when you really love someone, you just want to live together, eat together, watch TV together, and say 'good morning' and 'good night' to each other.'
Unbidden, an image of Aiden Shaw surfaced in Laura Lowell's mind.
His every smile and frown, the corners of his eyes, the arch of his brows...
"Cut!" the director yelled. "Laura Lowell, why aren't you saying anything?"
The director's booming voice pulled Laura Lowell from her daze. She offered an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, I forgot my line."
Zachary Redgrave lowered the pull-tab ring he was holding in mid-air and raised an eyebrow. "Zoned out? Don't tell me you were thinking about your Dr. Shaw."
