“I want us to get married.” His green eyes bore into my blue ones. “I want to marry you. I want to be able to do all the things I couldn’t when you were in the hospital. I want to put that ring and another one on your finger and marry you in front of our friends and your family.”
I get down on my knees so I’m level with him. “I can agree to that.”
“I mean it, Brie. I don’t want to wait. I don’t want to hide anymore.”
“I know.”
“Okay. Let me get some pants on and let’s go file paperwork that I want done.” He gets out of bed, and I smile at his perfect ass as he walks by.
“And they say romance is dead.”
ChapterThirty-Three
BRIELLE
“You brought me back to the park?” I ask Spencer with a brow raised.
“I need to show the kids that I fixed it.”
“Fixed what?”
“Us.”
I laugh. “And how do the boys know you broke us?”
He shrugs. “I may have come here and ran into them. They said I looked like shit and must’ve messed up.”
Well, if that isn’t the cutest thing ever. “And now you want to show me off?”
“Exactly. Now, I just hope they’re here . . .”
“Hey! It’s Brielle!” Kendrick runs over. “You’re back.”
“I am! Hey, guys!”
“Oh, she’s with him,” Timmy says when he spots Spencer.
I laugh because it’s hilarious how much they really don’t like him.
Spencer grumbles under his breath. “Yes, she’s with me. I brought her here.”
“You owe me twenty bucks,” Saint says to Timmy.
“Did you bet I wouldn’t be able to fix it?” Spencer asks.
“I did. I thought she’d be smarter.”
I snort and try to hide my amusement. “Well, as fun as this has been, we have to get going. I am glad to see you all though.”
“See ya,” they say and race off.
I hook my arm around his, and we walk down the path. “This is nice.”
“What is?”
“Our park,” I say as we stroll leisurely. This park may be a bit out of the way, but it’s now ours. That date really changed him for me all over again. It wasn’t about the past that day, it was about what we had together in the moment.
“This is ours.”
