“Are you sure you’re okay living here for a few months?” Riley asked.

“I’ll survive,” Trevor said, glancing up at her as she walked in the room.

She handed him a beer and joined him on the couch, putting her legs over his. “I know you’ll survive. I asked if you were okay with it.”

“It’s only a few months. Besides, I guess the bigger question is—are you okay selling a house you just bought?”

“I haven’t been here long enough to develop any attachment to it.”

“Not what I asked. It’s the first place you bought on your own. Are you okay with letting it go so soon?”

She knew he was still worried that she was going to regret so many things because they were moving fast, but that wasn’t going to happen.

“Trevor.” She grabbed his face in her hands. “I love you. I don’t care where I live. This is a house. Not a home. I want a home with you.”

“Then why are you gutting my entire house?” he asked, frowning.

“We’re gutting it. Not me, not you—us. And it’s because it’s just a house to you right now. It’s not your home.”

“I’ve lived there my whole life,” he argued. “How can you say that?”

“Because you’ve never once said ‘home.’ There’s a difference. We’re going to make it a home now.”

“If you say so. I’m not about to argue with you.”

She rolled her eyes. “What did your mother say when you told her? She’s not upset we’re changing up her home, is she?”

“You just said home,” he said.

“Geez, Trevor. It was her home. It had her touches on it. It’s not yours. Do you get it now? You may own it, but it’s still theirs more than yours. Understand?”

“She didn’t say anything at all. She was too excited to hear we were engaged.” He squeezed her sides and kissed her on the lips.

“Do you think everyone is going to think I’m a spoiled princess for wanting to change everything?” She’d never worried about that before, but now she worried a great deal.

“You’re never going to let me live that down, are you?” he asked.

“Nope. And for the record, you’re the only person who has ever called me a princess. I’ve been called a lot of things, but princess wasn’t one of them.”

“What about brat?” he asked, tickling her.

“Maybe a time or two. Stop that,” she said, trying to wiggle away.

“Riley,” he said, sliding his hands up her shirt now. She was getting distracted. “I know it’s just a house to me. I know what you’re doing and I’m all for it. I want it to be our home. A home we raise kids in someday.”

“Lots and lots of kids.”

“No. No more than two. I can’t go through the newborn stage more than twice,” he said, nibbling on her lips.

“You? What about me?” she asked, shifting back to look at him. He lifted a knowing eyebrow. “Okay, fine. Two kids it is.”

“And I want to be married by this time next year,” he said.

“Boy, you’re awfully demanding. You’ve never been this way before. Is this what I get to look forward to when we’re married?”

“I want to get married before your next birthday because I know you wished for it, even if you won’t tell me. I don’t want to have to sit through another birthday full of tears.”

She laughed and hugged him tight. “I think I like the fact you know me so well.”

“You better get used to it, because I’m not going anywhere.”

“And neither am I.”
