Christmas at Twin Falls
Page 14
She laughed. “Your mother actually said that?”
He nodded. “Remind me to tell you about the time I boldly asked your father to take you on a date and his response. Anyway, I think Mom always knew we’d be together, so now I’ve caught the Quinlan girl of my dreams. All she has to do is say, ‘Yes, Beau, I’ll marry you.’ Then a new chapter of our lives begins, together.”
“Well let’s see. I have to think about it.”
He raised an eyebrow at her. “Really?”
“No, not really.” Natasha smiled wide, and her heart beat with the excitement that her dreams were coming true. “Beau Everett, it’s about time you asked me to be your wife, so it’s yes, always yes, and forever yes.”
He pulled her across his lap and kissed her until she forgot where he ended and she began. Beau lifted his head and said gently, “Merry Christmas, Natasha soon to be Everett.”
“Merry Christmas,” she whispered.
“Our breakfast is cold,” he murmured.
“We’ll eat cereal. We’ve got a big dinner planned for later anyway.”
“When do we start cooking?” he asked.
“Oh we’ve got a few hours yet. Why, what do you have planned?” she asked huskily.
“I can think of a few things.” Beau gave her a devilish look before he picked her up and walked toward the stairs. Her laughter was cut off by his kiss because that Everett boy knew exactly how to celebrate Christmas right.
