Better Than Good (24 page)

“The rest we take one day at a time, okay? I don’t want a wife, kids, and dog with a house in the suburbs tomorrow.” He shot me an angry look and scooted away from me. I grabbed him back and pulled him onto my lap, tickling his side.

“What I mean is that I don’t want any of those things right away and…. Listen! Are you listening?” He nodded slowly, still not looking at me. “Who’s to say it can’t be a husband, kids, dog, and an apartment in the city?”

Aaron met my eyes.

“You mean that?”

“Yes. I really mean that.”

“Oh, Matty….” He buried his face in my shoulder and held on tightly. I rocked him in my arms, feeling so grateful to have this amazing chance. This amazing man. I wanted to lay him back in my bed and make love to him all morning. And then, later, I’d introduce my boyfriend to my friends.

This was definitely better than good.
