“Wow,” she said, holding him tight as she
wrapped her legs around his waist.
He chuckled as he settled her in beside
him. “My sentiments exactly.” He ran his fingertips up and down her arm. “I’ll
never make you regret takin’ a chance on me, I promise.”
“I know that,” she said, pressing a kiss to
his chest.
He tangled his legs with hers, pinning her
down. “You realize that resignation letter is worth less to me than the paper
it’s written on, don’t you?”
She chuckled. “How do you know you won’t
get tired of seeing me every day at work, you know now that we’re a couple?”
“I could never get enough of you… at home…
at work...”
She looked up at him. “What are you
saying?”
“ I want you to move in with me, Bri.” He
could have sworn his heart stopped in the seconds it took her to answer. He’d
already made the mistake of pushing her too fast once. He prayed he hadn’t made
the same mistake again.
“Are you sure we’re ready for this?”
“I’ve been ready for a long time. The
question is are you ready?”
“My dad might have something to say about
it,” she said, wrinkling her nose. “You know how old-fashioned he can be.”
“He knows I want to make you my wife, just
as soon as you’ll agree. But I don’t want to push.”
She laughed. “Isn’t that what you’re doing
now?”
He tried to quash the disappointment.
“Yeah, I guess I am. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. I just-”
Brianna leaned in to kiss him. “I need you
to push me, Ry. That’s what makes us so perfect for each other. You’re not
afraid to push me out of my comfort zone and I’m not afraid to rein you in when
I have to.”
He grinned. “Is that a yes?”
“On one condition.”
“Anything.”
“You promise to use the clothes hamper
instead of leaving a trail of clothes from the bathroom to the bedroom?”
He threw his head back and laughed.
“Anything for you, baby.”
