Nick was a tad blindsided by the question. Rebecca? He'd really not given her much thought lately. "I won't lie. I really did love Becky. To the point that had we stayed together, I might have considered proposing to her eventually." It was really confusing for him. He felt no physical attraction to her; the disastrous attempt at anything sexual proved that. Emotionally, however, he'd been very close to her. How could you love someone that you weren't attracted to?
"However. You are on a completely different level." He smiled. "I know this is going to sound extremely sappy, but I mean it." The latino exhaled shakily. "I loved her. I feel whole with you."
