The Wrong Woman

Imogen's heart raced as she slowly hugged Jasper, her voice bashful yet resolute. "Jasper, you'll always have a place in my heart."

Jasper tensed slightly, his senses on high alert. He met her eyes. A glint of anticipation sparked in his gaze as he eagerly murmured, "Say it one more time. Say it-"

"I love you, Jasper," Imogen said gently.

Jasper's eyes immediately filled with tears as he held Imogen tightly, his body shaking. Overwhelmed by emotion, he could only whisper her name into her ear. "Imogen... Imogen..."

Jasper frowned. "I do love you. Haven't you always known?"

"I still want to hear it," Imogen said.

"I love you. I love you with all my heart," Jasper declared, gazing at her with intense passion and unwavering resolve.

Feeling a bit stiff from his tight hug, Imogen gently pushed him away. "I love you, too, but I must get up and go to work."

"Not today," Jasper responded, scooping and carrying her back to bed. He pulled the covers snugly over them both and held her close.

Imogen smiled helplessly. "Can I at least go to the bathroom?"
