“If I’m going to fly to every show I might as well go on tour with you.”

“Exactly.” He smiles like he just won the argument.

“Stop.” I swat at his leg, needing him to not make this any harder on me. “We’ve been over this.”

“I know. I know.”

“But I will make it to a few shows. I promise. I’ll look over your schedule tomorrow and see which ones I think I can make work and I’ll let you know.”

“I guess I’ll take what I can get. We do have a few breaks where I should be able to fly home for at least a day or two.”

“We’re going to be okay, right?” I ask, hating how weak I sound.

“Hell yes we are.” He locks his hands around the back of my neck to pull my face down to his. “There is no fucking way I’m letting you go, Lennon. The sooner you wrap your pretty little head around that, the better it’s going to be for both of us,” he says, turning his face inward to steal a soft kiss.

“I love you,” I say, pressing my forehead against his.

“I love you. Now why don’t we go toourbedroom so I can show you just how much.”

“That’s all you care about. Getting me naked,” I tease.

“Have you looked at yourself recently? Who could blame me?” He wraps his hand around my upper thigh and squeezes.

“You’re hilarious,” I say sarcastically.

“I’m gonna show you hilarious.” He shifts beneath me, pushing out of his chair with next to no effort, taking me right along with him.

“Hudson.” I laugh as he pushes his way inside and kicks the door closed with his foot. “What are you doing?”

“I thought that was pretty obvious. I’m taking my girl to bed so I can make damn sure every time she climbs under those covers all she can think about is my body moving above hers.”

“Pretty sure that’s already been accomplished. But by all means, I’m at your disposal,” I say, giggling when he drops me down on top of the bed.

“That’s what I like to hear,” he growls, covering my body like a blanket seconds later.

“Promise you’ll textme the minute you land.” My arms cling so tightly to Hudson they ache.

“I promise.”

“And you’ll call every day?” I ask, fighting back the tears welling behind my eyes.

“Every single day.”

“I don’t want to let go,” I say, turning my face into his shirt.

“I don’t want you to let go.” He sweeps my hair to the side before kissing the top of my head.

“I wish this wasn’t so hard.”

“It’s not goodbye, Lennon. I’ll see you in a few weeks,” he soothes.

“I know.” I sigh, finally letting my hold on him drop as I step back.

“When you get home, check the top drawer of your nightstand.” He grins, leaning forward to press his lips to mine, but pulling back way too quickly.

“Why?” I question.
