Between Hello and Goodbye

“To meet your family?” She smiled over her coffee mug. “Do you think we’re ready for such a big step?” “We’re on our honeymoon, remember?” I said with a smirk.

She toyed with her fork as her eyes rose to meet mine. “Are we in trouble, firefighter?” I understood her meaning. Because I could read her, and she could read me, and neither one of us wanted to do much else besides figure each other out. “Not yet,” I said quietly. “But we’re getting there.”

Ok they are CUTE

“It’s not? We’re not even sleeping together. What are you getting out of this deal?” “You.” I sat back in my chair. “Me.” “Yeah, Faith.” His gaze grazed over me, then met my eyes with an intensity that was full of depth and heat. “I get you.” Damn him.
