It's like she told him at Mardi Gras. She loves Declan. It kinda feels as close to forever as she can imagine. Yeah, okay, her 'forever' isn't the same as most people's, probably, since three years ago she hadn't stayed in one place more than a few months since she was sixteen. But for her, they've already been together forever. And she can't imagine ever getting married. Even if forever means forever.
