“Other couples have sex.” She smiled brazenly, playing with him.

“Very true. Maybe after a few dates, we’ll make our way around the bases.” He winked.

“We’ve already been around the bases.” She huffed in faux-frustration and rolled her eyes. “You hit a grand slam from day one.”

He burst into a full belly laugh. God, he loved her.

“How many dates?” She leaned forward, resting her forehead against his. Her breath tickled his skin with each burst.

“However many it takes.” He cupped her face in his hands and kissed her.

“This is going to be harder for you than it will be for me.” She kissed him back.

“Oh, I realize that.” He pulled her into his embrace, her head resting on his shoulder. “But it will be so worth it.” He squeezed her tight. Their life together just began and he planned to make every second worth it.
