Mike shrugged. “Then I’ll watch Amy and Chris.”
Kiersten reared up. “Hey. What about sibling loyalty?”
“He’s good for you. Even can see that.”
Garrett grinned and set Kiersten down on her feet. But he didn’t let go of her. He needed her by his side too badly. He threw an arm over her shoulder. “Keep talking like that, and she’ll be playing matchmaker for you.”
“And with that? I leave.” Mike grabbed his bag. “Hey, Chris, want to have a Call of Duty marathon? I’ll bring you to school tomorrow with me.”
Chris hopped to his feet and handed Amy off to Garrett. “Sure. If it’s okay with you guys?”
Garrett nodded. It would be nice to have the place to themselves tonight. Amy was too young to question the loud noises coming out of Mommy and Daddy’s room. “Fine by me.”
“Me too,” Kiersten said.
Mike and Chris left. Kiersten turned to Garrett, rose on tiptoe, and kissed him. “I love you.”
“I love you, too.” He entwined his fingers with hers and they left the lobby, hand in hand. “And I’ve got a surprise for you tonight.”
She shot him a look out of the corner of her eye. “ one?”
“Mmm hmm.” He ran his thumb over her knuckles. “Remember that drawer you didn’t want me to go in the night we made Amy?”
She raised her brows. “Uh, yeah.”
“Remember why?”
“Oh, God. Yes.”
“Well, it’s my turn to play with the bunny.” He leaned in close and nibbled on her ear. “And I know exactly what I want to do with it.”
Her heated gaze raked over him. “I’ll look forward to that. Almost as much as I look forward to every day with you by my side.”
“That’s a promise. I’ll be there. I swear it.” He dropped a kiss onto the top of her head. “For the rest of our lives.”
She dropped his hand and cradled his face. “For better and for worse, for richer and for poorer, in sickness and in health, as long as we both shall live.”
Then she kissed him…
And didn’t let go.
