“I was just…never mind.” I stopped, not finishing my sentence, causing Highland to groan lowly.
“Baby, just ask me, please.”
“Was he my surprise too? Because another man as my surprise does nothing for me. I mean unless he has—” Highland tossing me onto the bed made me cut my words short and laugh uncontrollably.
“Hell the fuck no. Yours is in the bottom drawer.” I perked up, moving quickly to get on my knees to reach it. I pulled out a box and smiled wildly as I tore into the box, pulling out my captain’s hat.
“Does this mean I can finally drive the muthafucking boat, Captain?” I asked as I put it on, making Highland snort as he got on the bed with me, between my legs.
“Nope, but you get to continue to sit pretty next to me while I do.” I poked my lips out and Highland took them into his mouthwith me locking my limbs around him, holding him in place. He relaxed into me, letting me bear all his weight that felt all too good. Whenever we were this close, my soul whispered his name and our hearts beat in sync, binding our names to each other.
“I love you, Olive.”
“I love you too, Highland.”
