“Just checking.”
She gives an annoyed grunt as I guide her forward. “Are we there yet?”
I grin. I’m taking her the long way around our house to keep the suspense high so she can’t guess the surprise I have for her. “Almost.”
“You said that five minutes ago.”
“Patience, goddess.” I nearly burst out laughing when I see the grimace on her face. She’s so fucking cute when she’s annoyed. “Okay, there are three steps I’m going to guide you down.”
She groans. “Can’t I just lift my blind slightly so I don’t tumble down the stairs?”
“Nope. That’s cheating. You know I’d never harm a hair on your head, love. Just trust me.”
Her lips quirk into a soft smile, all evidence of her earlier irritation gone. “I trust you with my life, Will.”
“Good. Because I’d rather fucking die than let anything happen to you.”
Her breath hitches, causing a slight blush to cover her cheeks. I love when I affect her this way.
After successfully guiding her down the steps, I position her where I want her to stand. Leaning over, my lips graze the shell of her ear, and she releases an involuntary shiver.
“Ready, baby? On the count of three, I’ll remove the blindfold.”
She nods. “I’m ready.”
“You start us off by saying one.”
“One—”
Before she can say another word, I remove the blindfold with a flourish, watching her eyes fly open, wide with surprise. Her hands press against her heart as she blinks a couple of times, a gasp leaving her mouth as she stares at the car in front of her. “Oh my God, Will.”
“It’s a BMW Z4 convertible. I know how much you love red, so I figured—” That’s all I get out before she flings herself into my arms, leaping so that I have to catch her. Wrapping herself around me, she plants a huge kiss on my lips.
Fuck. If she’s gonna react like this, I’ll buy her a new car every week.
“Will. This is amazing. But you didn’t have to…”
My smile is huge, happiness lighting me up and filling my soul. “I know I didn’thaveto.” I rub her nose with my own. “Iwantedto.”
She kisses me again before hugging me tight, making me laugh.
“Do you want me to show you—oh shit, love, don’t cry.”
She waves a hand. “I’m sorry. Of course, I wanna see the car. I’m just… Overwhelmed. Two days ago, we bought a gorgeous house. Then you surprised me by proposing. That same night, we discovered we’re pregnant—”
“I knew we were pregnant, so change that toyoudiscovered we’re pregnant.”
She laughs. “Okay, smartass. You knew before I did. Still, I’m pregnant and—"
I look at her with my brows drawn. “Weare pregnant. Yes, it will be your body our girlsare growing inside and you’ll be the one to give birth to them.”
“How are you so sure we’re having twin girls?”
I shrug. “I just know.”
After a few beats, a slow smile pulls up her lips. “Twins. I never really gave it a thought, but it makes sense. Your dad is a twin.”
Nodding again, I rest my forehead against hers, my goddess still wrapped around me. “He is. How do you feel about the possibility of two babies at once?”
