“Shit.” I lifted her into my arms, hugging myself around her. “I did it again. I hate making you cry.”
“I’m fine.” She laughed. “I promise. Just emotional. Everything has me crying lately.”
I leaned my forehead against hers. “I meant everything I’ve said.”
“I know, Jaron.” A shuddered breath left her. “I know.”
Kissing her softly, I stepped out of her embrace and held my hand out. “Go out for dinner with me?”
She nodded, slipping her fingers in mine. “You don’t even have to ask me.”
“Good.” I tugged her closer, slapping my other hand against her ass.
She gasped.
I grinned.
And did it again.
“God.” She shivered.
I chuckled. “The mood was getting too heavy.”
Piper snorted. “No kidding.”
Fisting her hair, I stared down at her. “You good?”
She nodded.
“Arewegood?” It was a question that I wasn’t sure I was ready for the answer to or not, but I still needed to know. Add to the fact that the question just fell from my lips anyway before I had a chance to stop it.
“I think we are,” she said softly.
Kissing her one last time, I released her and went to my cut that was hanging over the arm of the love seat. I wasn’t sure why, but something was stopping me from putting it on. It was like a part of me felt that I didn’t deserve to wear it.
“Did you want to wear that?” Piper asked.
I caught her gaze.
“I mean…” Her cheeks reddened. “I’m not sure of the rules or anything but shouldn’t you be wearing it all the time?”
“Tonight, I’m not a biker. I’m just a man taking his girl out on a date to try and save their relationship.”
“Okay.” She gave me a small smile.
My body stirred. Fuck me, she was beautiful.
Her long dark hair fell down around her shoulders in waves. Her lips were red from the many times I had nibbled at them over the past hour or so. Her eyes were dark with lust. From that point on, I vowed to myself that I would do everything I could to keep a smile on her face. She deserved it. She deserved all of it.
Holding out my hand, I waited. I often wondered if she would run. When I had gone to jail, a part of me feared that I would come home, and she would be shacked up with another guy. Maybe even with one of the twins or both. I hadn’t seen them yet. Hell, I hadn’t seen anyone yet. I didn’t want to, but I knew at the same time that if I was going to be with Piper, I had to make an appearance and not be so damn grumpy and broody.
When Piper finally closed the distance between us and took my hand, all the struggles we bore, left me. Even if it was just for a moment.
Jaron
With my hand inPiper’s, I drove us to a small Italian restaurant that my cousin, Zach, had recommended. He said it was a little on the expensive side but the atmosphere and food were well worth the cost. It also always put a smile on his fiancée’s face, so that would definitely be worth every penny dropped.
Piper had been silent on the drive over. She kept looking out the window, chewing her bottom lip. She was thinking. And I knew it had to do with us, Brynn, her future.Ourfuture.
