“Not possible.”
I sway to the music, thankful for the slower pace, and lower my mouth to her ear. “So fucking beautiful, my heart stopped when you walked my way. The entire building could have crumbled to the ground and I still couldn’t have looked away.”
“Ford…” Her voice is breathy, her hands clutching my neck.
“Love you, Rowan.”
“Love you, too. Even when you’re being an overly possessive bully.”
“Possession is all I think of when it comes to you.”
She melts into me, tilting her face my way. Pure, shining brilliance aimed at me. “I thought you didn’t dance.”
“I didn’t dance until you.”
“Wasn’t today amazing?”
“It was.”
“Can you believe they are finally married?”
I follow her line of sight to Major and Jewls, who are lost in their own little world. Jewls is staring at his hand in wonderment. This morning we all watched as he inked her initial on his ring finger.
Like Ace, he wanted her mark to be permanent.
A move I completely understand.
“He’s looking at her like she’s the most precious thing in his world.”
“I know the feeling.”
Her eyes well, the bright blue gleaming. “I’m so happy I could cry.”
“Tears like that, I can handle.”
“This whole week has been… I don’t know how to explain it. Just fairylike.”
“Baby, outside of the bride, you have been the center of attention. When we get back to Nashville, don’t make plans with anyone for a month. I’m sick of sharing you.”
She drops her head back, her body shaking against mine as the soft melody of her laughter coasts over me.
“I’m not kidding.”
“That’s what makes it funny.”
I slant my arms across her back, closing any space between us.
We dance in silence, her nails caressing to the rhythm of the music as I lead us around the dance floor. The song changes, but we stay like this, her looking at me with so much trust I fight the urge to beat my chest.
“Can I cut in?”
I recognize the voice, tightening my hold. “No.”
“Ford!” Rowan stops moving. “You’re being rude.”
“Yeah, Ford, you’re being rude.”
I swing my angry gaze at Hugo and find him smiling wide.
