“It’s meant to be.”

“I’m beginning to think it is.” She glanced around. “This place is small. But if you don’t mind sharing a double bed. You can stay here.”

“I would love to share your bed, and your apartment is fine. It’s homey, and I like it. This will also give me a chance to check out clubs in the area and see what they’re doing. I need to stay on top of the trends.”

Gabby laughed. “My one weekend in Seattle is the best thing that has happened to me.”

“Me too. And I will be with you each step of the way on your new journey. When you’re ready, we can take the next steps in our relationship.”

“I already love you more now than I did an hour ago.”

“That’s good because I’m not letting you go. You’re mine.”
