With as much enthusiasm as I could muster, I threw him an encouraging look. “I promise to think about it, babe. We’ll never know, seven weeks is quite a long time. Maybe by then I’ll miss you so damn much that I won’t have a choice but to move in with you ’cause I can’t stand being away from you any longer.”

His eyes glinted, amused at the thought of me obsessed with him again. “I’d love for that to happen. Then you’ll just be as crazy as I am with you.”

“I amcrazy for you.”

“You are … but not like before …” He trailed off with sadness in his eyes, recalling the memories of our past. “In those days, I was your endgame.”

He still was, but I wasn’t going to throw everything in one basket when we just started dating again. Surely, he could see that?

“Baby steps, River. I’ll get there, and you’re going to help me.”

“You bet your sweet ass I will. I’ll fucking carry you if I have to.”

Like I expected anything less from him.

We only had a couple of hours left before he was due to jet back to Los Angeles. And like always, we spent it in bed, talking and cuddling. So, when it was time for him to leave, we got stuck at the door, kissing and nipping each other’s neck, not ready to say goodbye.

I’m going to miss his crazy so bad.I heaved before kissing him on the lips once more.It’s time to let him go, or he’ll miss his flight…

“I’ll be seeing you,” I whispered, hating these temporary goodbyes.

He smiled against my lips and whispered, “Be seeing you.”
