Epilogue
Brendon
Kaylee steps out of the humanities building with stars in her eyes. She stretches her arms over her head as she lets out a soft yawn.
Her lips spread into a smile as her eyes catch mine. Her movements get faster. The exhaustion fades from her expression.
I move toward her. Meet her at the halfway point of the sidewalk.
She jumps into my arms and squeezes me tightly. "I thought you had to work."
"I finished early." I soak up the feeling of her body against mine. She's so warm and soft. And she's mine.
All mine.
Fuck, it's still hard to believe.
I set her down on the concrete, but I keep my arms around her.
Her green eyes fill with affection as she looks up at me. "I missed you."
"I missed you." I bring one hand to the back of her head, undo her ponytail, and run my fingers through her hair. "How was it?"
She smiles. "Easy peasy."
"Easy?"
"Relatively speaking."
She's been locked in her studying cave for the last two weeks. It's been torture. But it's worth it for the look on her face.
I cup the back of her head. "Straight As?"
&nbs
p; "I think so. But we'll see." She slides her arm around my waist and rests her head on my chest. "Tell me we're going straight to your place."
"My place? What would we do there?" I play dumb.
"Brendon Kane, this is not the time to be a tease."
"There go my plans for the afternoon."
Kay laughs so hard she shakes. "Okay. You can tease. But not until we're at your place."
"I'm not following."
"You are too." She slides her hand under my t-shirt and presses her palm against my stomach.
"I have a surprise for you."
"Yeah?" Her voice lifts. "Something, ahem..."
I chuckle. "No. After."
"After." She looks up at me. "I like after."
"Me too."
