Fighting for Love (Second Chances #4)(85)
“Not many,” I said, laughing as he swung me around.
When he set me down, he took a deep breath of the salty sea air and gazed out at the ocean and the colorful horizon. “You know, I think I kind of like it here,” he confessed. “Don’t get me wrong, I love California, but this place holds something special for us now, too. What would you say if we bought a house here?”
“Really?” I squealed excitedly. “You would want that?”
“Yeah, why not?” Wrapping his arms around my waist, he pulled me in close and pressed his lips to mine. “As long as I have you with me there’s nothing we couldn’t do. You’re my wife now, angel. Whatever you want I’ll happily give it to you.”
“Anything I want?” I murmured softly, gazing into his swirling green eyes.
He nodded. “Anything.”
There was something I really wanted, but it was something we hadn’t talked about yet. “There is one thing I want, but it might take a while to actually get it,” I told him cryptically, biting my lip.
“Why is that?” he asked, furrowing his brows.
With a mischievous grin on my face, I shrugged my shoulders. “I don’t know. I think sometimes it can take up to nine months to receive it. Sometimes longer if it takes a while to make.”
His eyes went wide and he gripped me so tight I could barely breathe. “Really?” he murmured excitedly. “Are you sure this is what you want, angel? You have no idea how bad I want this … to start a family with you.”
“Oh, Matt, I want it more than anything. We’ve waited so long for this.”
“Yes, we have,” he agreed, tilting my head back so he could kiss me. “And it all starts tonight. I promise I will give you what you want … what we want. It’ll be a new start, a new beginning, and we have the rest of our lives to enjoy it.”
Yes we do, and it begins now.
