Her breath was literally taken away in that moment. It was sporadic but she wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. Of course, in her mind she always imagined something planned out and well thought, but that was just who she was as a person. Maybe it was good for her to experience things that didn’t follow her tight schedule and plans. When they both pulled back, her hands moved back down to her sides as he stood flat on her feet again. “I don’t have a single clue.” Sophia shook her head, smiling wildly as he kissed her nose. It was a simple act but it meant more than he would probably ever know. ”I’m bad at guessing.”

Everything he had ever thought– killing, inflicting pain on himself and others, torturing women and being able to get them whenever he wanted– was gone. He didn’t want anyone else, and certainly didn’t wish to fracture the heart of this girl. Jasper took her hand once more and began walking, this time his heart had been beating at a wild place. Was this how it felt to be in love, or had he been in some wild trance again, as he had been in high school? “Which is why I told you to guess in the first place. We’re going to the Lincoln Center Fountain. I mean– we’re in New York City so…” He gave a shrug, allowing himself to turn a corner, dragging her along with him. “It’s a humongous fountain. You’ll like it.” And it didn’t help that he had been googling romantic places to take her all day. It’d probably be worth it.
