“You somehow grew into the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever laid eyes on.” She narrows her eyes like she doesn’t believe me and when she starts to pull away, I grab her by her jaw, squeezing it gently. “Tell me you believe me.” “Sure, Theo. You were a football star for a decade and met models and movie stars and women all over the world but the girl next door is the most gorgeous? You’ve already got me in bed,” she teases and shoots me a look. “I don’t need all that.”
