“I’m not going to do that,” she assured him.
An hour later they were walking hand in hand toward the security checkpoint at LAX when Nate pulled her out of the traffic flow. She gazed up at him in surprise as he gave her a sheepish grin.
“This isn’t at all how I’d planned to do this, but it occurs to me they’re going to make me empty my pockets.” He pulled out a small box and popped the lid. Nestled in the black velvet was a diamond ring. “Mia Navarro, love of my life, will you marry me?”
Stunned to silence, she stared at the gorgeous ring and then lifted her gaze to his.
When she didn’t speak, his brows drew together. “I’m not asking because you’re pregnant. I’m not that guy.”
“You are exactly that guy.” She gave a self-conscious laugh. “Which is why I love you.”
The look on his face set her heart to pounding. “Say that again,” he demanded.
“Say what?”
“That you love me.”
“I love you.”
“And,” he prompted.
“And I absolutely will marry you.”
He took her hand in his and slid the ring onto her finger. “You are my world.”
Mia put her palm against his cheek and leaned close. “You are mine. Forever and always.”
And after a tender kiss that sealed their vows, they headed for the plane that would take them home.
