Luca’s words made my heart soar.

“You’re such a smart cookie,” I teased, delicately tickling his side.

Luca grinned and jerked his body away.

He pulled me in tight, though.

And his hug said everything that his mouth didn’t.

He was very happy about the latest development.

Very, very happy.

Dinner did eventually get cooked.

But only after we celebrated.

Twice.

I’m sorry. Did I offend you with my common sense?

-Luca’s secret thoughts

Luca

My morning run was filled with what-ifs.

What if I hadn’t enlisted in the Navy?

What if I’d decided to go with a different branch?

What if I’d never been held prisoner?

What if we decided to have a baby and it never worked out?

What if I married her?

What if, what if, what if.

Hell, there were a thousand what-ifs, but only one came back to my mind time and time again.

What if something else happened, and I was taken away? Or she was?

Needless to say, I wanted to officially ask her to marry me again.

I wanted to move in together.

I wanted to do a lot of things with her, the majority of those making sure that she was at my side a hundred percent of the way.

So, first thing first, I would ask her to marry me again.

Second, I needed to tell my parents that I was alive.

Third, I needed to figure out my job situation.

I was no longer who I thought I was, so all of my paperwork would have to be redone.
