January&Gus, Alex&Poppy, Charlie&Nora in one short story? You damn well know I'm going to love it. And yes, I was smiling so hard I almost broke my jaw.

“What?” I say.
“Nothing,” he says, with a one-armed shrug. He draws the back of my hand to his mouth and presses his lips against it. “I just like you.”

emily henry core is crying tears of literal happiness over a 1 page epilogue.

Sometimes he does this still, even now, years into our relationship, where his eyes get so focused and dark it feels like he’s looking straight into my veins, and whatever else is happening outside my body has dissolved, inconsequential as mist.
Like I am the only solid thing in the world. And it feels like such an honor, to be solid for him, to exist with him in moments when nothing else does.
it’s amazing how words on a paper (or in this case, words on a screen) can make you cry. ms emily henry really outdid herself by creating a hole in my heart dedicated to these characters.
