Gabriel’s arms tightened around me.
“Thank you,” he said quietly, his lips against my hair. “For loving her. For loving me.”
I pulled back just enough to look at him. His eyes met mine, and there was something in them I’d never seen before.
Something that looked a lot like love.
“Let’s go home,” he said. “Let’s go tell Megan.”
Home.
Our home.
I took his hand, and together we walked out of the courtroom.
Into the hallway, where Fitz immediately tackled me in a hug. “You magnificent crazy woman, you did it!” Nathan, Hayden, Quinton, and Julien were all grinning, where Anthony gave us one last nod before disappearing down the corridor.
Into the sunlight outside, where the air felt cleaner somehow.
In the car, Gabriel’s hand found mine again and didn’t let go the entire drive home.
The home we’d fought for.
Together.
