I squeezed his cheek and laughed.
“Every time we’re alone, he asks where you are, so I think he may be as obsessed with you as I am.”
He rolled his eyes.
“But still?—”
“In fact, maybe you should move in here,” I said, and he froze, staring at me.
“I should what?”
I leaned back and pressed my lips together. “What? Too soon? Should I not have said that?”
He took a beat before he cupped my cheek and sighed.
“Do you mean it?” he asked.
“I don’t say anything I don’t mean.”
“I…I’d love that,” he said.
“You would?”
He nodded.
“But maybe we should wait a bit, no? Wouldn’t it be weird to move in together so soon after getting together?”
I shrugged.
“Everyone else did it.”
“I’m just thinking of Bear. Another change so soon…as much as he likes me, it might unsettle him.”
“We can always ask him,” I suggested.
“Maybe. Let’s think this through before we rush into anything, okay?”
Wesley had a point. It might be too fast, but I didn’t care. I wanted to be with him all day, every day. For the rest of my life.
“Also, you know I own my house, right?”
“Yeah,” I said.
“So…wouldn’t it make sense to move into my place?”
I smiled and planted a kiss on his lips.
“If you insist. I’m not going to say no to my dream home.”
Wesley smiled. “Your dream what?”
I pursed my lips and walked over to the closet and opened it to show him my vision board. He got up and put his glasses on,not even trying to cover his naked body as he approached, like he used to only a week or so ago. I loved to see it. To see his confidence in his beauty grow. Because the truth was I loved Wesley exactly the way he was. I wouldn’t change a thing about him. Not a damn thing.
“That’s my house!” he said, pointing at the board. “What’s it doing there?”
I shrugged.
“I sort of fell in love with it. I think the same day I fell for you, actually.” Because of course I had met Wesley and stumbled on his house without knowing it all in one morning.
