Ever since then, Declan’s been on the quiet side. Still attentive and loving, but I can feel his hurt and worry. I wish I could make it better for him, but the only thing that will help is Gage coming home.

“I’m good,” he says, bending and kissing my temple. “This song deserves to be recorded for the world to hear.”

“There they are,” Johnny, the producer handling our song, says, giving Declan a fist bump. We recorded it a while back—though, I don’t remember—to show it to my dad, but he made a couple of changes to the instrumentals, and we’ll be finalizing it today. I also gave him all the songs I wrote while we were on our road trip, and he said there’s enough for an entire album there. He’s having one of his staff writers edit and tweak them, and then next week, I’ll begin recording my album. I was set on the title Falling, but the more I think about it, I think a more apt title might be Fallen because let’s be real—I’m not falling for Declan… I’ve completely and utterly fallen.

“You guys ready?”

“Always,” Declan says, heading straight into the sound room. Since we’re in public, albeit my parents’ studio, we’re not holding hands or touching, and even though it’s only been a few minutes and my choice, I already miss him.

I put the headphones on to start my part, and once Johnny gives me the go-ahead, I sing my heart out.

I’ve never been in love before

Never knew what my heart was capable of

Until you walked in and turned my life upside down

Now my heart’s racing, my body’s vibrating

I should run the other way, protect you from me

From what I’m capable of

But you make me weak, make me someone I’m not

Because…

You’ve got me drunk on you

Drunk on wanting you

Drunk on needing you

You’ve got me drunk on your love

And I’ll never be the same

The moment you walked in, everything changed

My heart is filled with chaos, my head fuzzy

I want to be the one who makes you happy

Who gives you the world

I’ve spent too long pretending

Wishing, hoping, praying these feelings would go away

This might be the biggest mistake I’ve ever made

But it will also be the best

Because…

You’ve got me drunk on you

Drunk on wanting you

Drunk on needing you

You’ve got me drunk on your love

And I’ll never be the same

I’ve been watching you all night

Memorizing your every move

Know exactly what you need

To cure that chaos in your heart

Hand it over, and I’ll fix the broken

Turn the chaos into calm

Make that heart of yours mine

And you’ll never feel alone

All you gotta do is say yes

And I’ll handle the rest

Haven’t touched a single drink all night

But I’m drunk as fuck

On your scent, on your touch

Hand it over, baby

And you’ll never know what it’s like to be without love

I’m handing my heart over to you

Keep it safe

Promise you’ll never stray

I’ve fallen for you, I must admit

I’m flying high, not worried about the hit

That I’m going to take the day you walk away

Hoping and praying when I go down, you’ll be there to catch me

I know it’s a risk, but it’s one I’m willing to take

Because…

You’ve got me drunk on you

Drunk on wanting you

Drunk on needing you

You’ve got me drunk on your love

And I’ll never be the same

Declan and I spend the next couple of hours working with Johnny, perfecting the song, and with every word we sing, I wonder if deep down I maybe always knew how I felt about Declan.

My thoughts go to the day I woke up in the hospital. When I opened my eyes, Declan was the first person I saw, and all I could think about was how delicious and kissable he looked. I pushed the thoughts aside and told myself we were just friends, but the fact that I wrote my first true love song with him tells me that maybe it was more, and I just wasn’t ready to admit it yet.

“What’s going through that beautiful head of yours?” Declan asks, snapping me out of my thoughts. I look around and realize we’re alone.

“Johnny said it’s perfect,” he says, giving me a chaste kiss. “He’s going to finalize it after he grabs dinner and then send it to your dad and us to approve. Now tell me what’s got you lost in your head.”

“I was just thinking about when we wrote this song.” I encircle my arms around his neck. “I think I knew you were the one for me back then, but I didn’t want to admit it. I’m sorry it took me this long and almost marrying the wrong guy to realize my feelings for you.”

Declan smiles. “It’s all good. We’re here, together, and that’s all that matters. Now, what do you say we go home and celebrate ‘Drunk on Your Love’?”

“And how do you want to celebrate?” I ask, knowing damn well how he wants to celebrate.
