“No morning sickness today,” Penny informed him.
He made a sound and shuddered. “Thank god. I thought I’d seen the worst of humanity as a bounty hunter, but you, my love…” He kissed her again, rubbing her back. Then he looked to Caroline. “You ready, Carrie?”
“Yup.” Caroline hopped off the stool and grabbed her backpack. “Meet you at the cop car!” she called, dashing off toward the entryway.
“See you later,” Decker said, giving Penny one more quick peck. He was halfway across the kitchen when she cleared her throat. He glanced back.
“Aren’t you forgetting something?” Penny asked teasingly.
A slight frown wrinkled his forehead. “Uh…”
Penny held up his police badge. “You’re losing your edge,” she said with a sly grin.
Decker huffed a laugh and prowled back over to her. “And you’re getting cocky. We’re gonna have to fix that.” His arms went around her waist, hers went around his neck, and their lips pressed tenderly together. It was at times like this when Penny wasn’t thinking about sex. All she could think about was the fact that she would spend the rest of her life with this man.
“I love you,” she whispered against his mouth.
He smiled. “I love you, too.” With a final caress of his lips, he pulled away. “Munchkin’s waiting,” he said. “Don’t miss me too much.”
“Catch lots of bad guys,” Penny tossed back, sticking her tongue out.
Decker grinned a grin of pure happiness, then turned and went from the room. As the front door clicked shut behind him, Penny leaned back against the counter and smiled into her coffee. This, she thought, This is what home means.
