“Your eyes were begging me every time I left this place.” Her nerves are now gone, a smirk on her face.
“You’re moving in? Really moving in?” My hand circles her waist, pulling her flush to me.
“Yup.” Her gorgeous eyes stare at me with love, and in that moment, I’m the luckiest person in the world.
“Why didn’t you say anything? About the lease, nothing?”
“It was a surprise, duh.” She rolls her eyes, making me laugh.
“But I should have helped you with your stuff. How the hell did you do that on your own?”
“Matt, honey, I need you to put your gentleman side aside and kiss me already.”
She doesn’t have to tell me twice. Our lips connect, the elation I feel turning into passion, and I hope we have enough time before others arrive.
Just as I’m thinking of burying myself deep inside of her, whistles and claps sound in my driveway.
“What?” I pull away slightly, noticing where the sounds are coming from. Eric, Rina, Connor, Noah, Anne, and even Bryce, who Anne’s been seeing for a couple of months, make their way from behind the truck, cheering for us loud enough for the entire neighborhood to hear.
“Don’t worry, I had some help with the move.” They’re all dressed in sweats, and I realize this isn’t a barbeque, this is a moving in party.
“Wow, thanks guys! Feel free to start unloading the truck, we need a second.” I hoist her up, so she locks her legs around my waist and run her upstairs.
She giggles as I pepper her face and neck with tiny kisses.
“Matt, everyone’s downstairs. We can’t!” she whisper-yells.
“Well, what did you think would happen when you did this?”
She giggles even louder.
“I guess you’ll have to wait for everyone to leave,” she says with a glint in her eyes, and I know that’s exactly what she planned. She still loves driving me crazy, testing my patience and sanity.
“You’re such a little brat, baby. You’ll need to be punished for that.” I bite into her neck, making her squeal.
“We’ll see.” She jumps away from me and runs downstairs, squealing and giggling.
I huff out a laugh, my dick straining against my pants, but I know he’ll get his, later. Now, it’s time to strain some other muscles and move the love of my life into my house.
Good thing my house’s big enough because Natalie hasa lotof things. It takes us a couple of hours to move everything from the truck, but it will take usweeksto get everything out of the boxes.
Rina and Anne help her unpack a part of it, while the rest of us work on the barbeque, before we all enjoy the food.
Our friends finally leave,so we head upstairs. I let her be the first one to enter the bedroom.Ourbedroom. My heart paces in a fast rhythm as I rub my suddenly sweaty hands on my shorts. The bulge in my pocket doesn’t help my nerves.
It takes her a second before noticing the piece of paper laying on the bed.
“What’s this?” she asks with a sparkle in her eyes.
“Why don’t you take a look?”
“Oh my God,” she says, reading it.
It’s the list.Ourlist. List of all the things we did in the last few months, all the items carefully checked off.
All except for one.
Her eyes turn watery when she gets to the last item on the list. One that says ‘say yes.’
