"No…" She shook her head.
Maybe just a little bit, but she already made up her mind that whatever he was, it would not change how she felt about him at all.
And she stuck to her words.
"Valerio... if I love you, then I love you for you. And that means that whatever you are, I will still love you regardless."
"Whether you are a monster, anything! I don't care. I simply...adore you! Your monster doesn't scare me, and I really don't know why. I should be terrified, but I feel a mixture of slight fear and fascination." She spoke truthfully to him with a shy smile on her face.
"Besides, I knew what I was signing up for when I fell for you. So there is no going back now. YOU ARE STUCK WITH ME FOREVER!!!" She laughed heartily and jumped on top of him, leaving Valerio, who had not expected those words, flabbergasted.
"Everly…" He whispered her name, and his shocked expression gradually gave way to a smile.
