“How could I say no when that’s everything I’ve always wanted?” she asked, trembling with all the feelings that were too big to put into words. It seemed too simple, and at the same time completely right. “I love you so much, Cal. There’s nothing that would make me happier than marrying you.”
He cupped her face in his hands and kissed her softly before saying, “I’m going to hold you to that.”
“And I’m just going to hold you.” She slid her arms around him and rested her cheek on his chest. “On one condition.”
“Anything.”
“Do I have to move into your house after we’re married?” she asked.
“I was sort of counting on you and Annie living with me.” He held her away from him and met her gaze. “You’re worried about Helping Hands.”
“Yes, but I think I know someone who’d be perfect for it.” It was so wonderful how well he understood her. “You haven’t met Sophia yet, and when you do she might be a little hostile at first. She’ll get over it.”
“If you like her I’ll like her,” he promised.
“I know you will. And she doesn’t know it yet, but this apartment is going to be her new home.” Em looked around and knew she would miss this place. “I hope it brings her as much happiness as it’s brought me.”
“And me,” Cal said.
Then he lowered his mouth to hers again and took care of showing her all the tenderness and love she’d longed for her whole life. The only thing that could make her happier was a brother or sister for Annie. Another baby for her and the doctor would make life just about perfect.
