Hearts on Fire (The Hunter Family) Page 17


  “You were magnificent, and so beautiful, Abby! I am so proud to call you my sister.”

  I hugged her back and I was trembling with excitement. “Thanks, Claire! This is so crazy!”

  A few minutes later, Zane, my mom, dad, Nana Bunny, Uncle Jake, Aunt Lauren, Barbi, Jonny, Skylar, and a few cousins came backstage to congratulate me. Zane handed me a beautiful bouquet of red roses and gave me a sweet kiss on the lips. Everyone congratulated me and after a few minutes I was able to grab some quick alone time with Zane.

  His eyes searched mine as he gently caressed my face.

  “You were amazing, so gorgeous, it looked like you were floating on air. So, how does it feel?”

  My eyes were sparkling as they searched his.

  “I can’t even describe it. It is way more than I ever could have begun to imagine. The crowd, the energy…I love it, Zane.”

  I put my arms around him and gave him a long hug and then pulled back a bit to look at him.

  “Thank you for coming and thank you for the beautiful roses.”

  “You’re very welcome, there is no way I would have missed tonight. I love you, Abby and I am so proud of you.”

  My face was serious as my eyes searched his.

  “I love you too, Zane.”

  Then I gave him a quick kiss and a playful smirk.

  “You know what? I think you just might be a keeper.”

  He gave me that playful smirk right back.

  “You know what? I think you might just be right!”
