He smirks and then tilts his head behind him. “Food first while it’s still warm, and then you can get ready.”
“And Grandma Betty?” I ask again.
“Is going to lose her mind when she sees you.”
His gaze slowly tracks over my body, and when it gets to the hem of his shirt, he clears his throat and snaps his gaze back to mine. “Let’s eat.”
We dish up and eat in silence.
He glances at me a few times, and you’d think it would be weird, because I know what he wants to talk about, but it’s not.
Nothing with Tobias is ever weird.
“How long are you planning to stay here?” I ask just as I finish clearing my plate.
“I’m not sure. I’m going to call Quinn later and see if she can come for a bit.”
I nod slowly.
Griffin and I were living together in his house, so I’m not sure where I’ll go or what I should do when I get back.
Ugh. There is so much for me to figure out from here.
“Tobias?”
“Yeah?”
“Can I stay here with you until you go back?”
His lips stretch into a grin.
“I wouldn't have it any other way.”
“Okay. Thank you.”
“And Natalie?”
“Yeah?”
“When we get back to Wind Valley, you’re moving in with me.”
I bite my lip before I smile. “Thank you,” I whisper.
He winks and then gets back to his breakfast.
God, I’ve missed him.
This.
Us.
That’s why this is exactly where I need to be right now.
CHAPTER ELEVEN
TOBIAS
Griffin is lucky he’s in another town right now.
