of me and I can’t help but feel excited about this house as well. “I love it, I love all of it. You’ve done a great job.”
    He inhales a deep breath and looks at me. His knee starts to agitate again as he takes my hand over the table. “Good, because the foundation has been laid, and they’re about half way through the construction phase,” he says really quickly.
    I watch his face; he’s looking at me with an intense stare.
    I swallow as the reality of the situation hits me. “When will our house be ready?”
    His body tenses as he looks at me, his eye brows furrowed and his forehead creasing. “About another month. I’ve got men working around the clock to get it finished quickly.”
    I shake my head in awe. Wow, we’re going to have our own home. A mansion like Callie and Alistair’s. Well, just Alistair’s now, but still my own home where we can have pets and a garden. It’s going to be fantastic. My nerves wash away with another round of undeniable excitement. I grip onto his hand tighter. “Aiden, thank you so much. I can’t wait to see it.”
    He exhales loudly, I’m assuming in relief that I am on board. He takes his hand from mine as he puts away the plans. “No, thank you for coming into my life and filling it with love.” He rubs his thumb across my hand. We sit chatting, and the waitress comes back to take our drink orders.
    “What do we do in the meantime with living arrangements?”
    He raises his eyebrows and seems deep in thought. “We can stay at the Intercontinental in the penthouse suite.”
    I scoff at him. “No, a month in a hotel room will drive me crazy.”
    He looks deep in thought again as he takes both my hands in his. “We could stay at Sarah’s if she’ll let us?”
    “I can ask, but would you really be happy there?”
    “I’m fine anywhere you are. Living with my girl and my best buddy sounds awesome to me.”
    “I’ll ask her. I guess we should start talking about our wedding.”
    “Anything you want, baby, you can have, anything at all. I want this to be your dream wedding; nothing is out of the question.”
    “To be honest, I’d be happy with a garden wedding, and maybe a nice place for the reception. How about you?”
    “That sounds fantastic, but I want this to be a day you’ll remember forever. I want you to have the best of everything and whatever you want.”
    He takes a sip of his soda, and his attention is focused on me. “Are you happy?”
    “Ecstatically happy.”
    My reassurance makes his eyes sparkle, and he sighs with relief. “So, we’re doing this then. Getting married? Building a house and starting our lives together?”
    I giggle. “Definitely.”
    The corners of his mouth turn upward as his whole faces beams a smile. “I love you.”
    “I love you, too.” I know that this feels right. He’s the man I’m supposed to marry and be with until the end of time. I couldn’t be happier.

CHAPTER 4
    Aiden follows me home after work, and we decide to ask Sarah together if Aiden can stay until our new house is finished. We both walk into her house, down the hallway, and see Chris sitting at the dining table in his boxers playing on his cell.
    “Been really busy today I see, Chris.” I giggle as we walk past.
    “Yeah, flat out, can’t you tell?” He smirks and continues to play on his cell.
    We walk to my room and kick off our shoes. Sarah comes rushing in. Her eyes are sparkling, and her face is beaming.
    “Aiden, are you staying for dinner?”
    “Actually, there’s something Jeni and I would like to discuss you guys over dinner, if that’s alright?”
    Sarah raises an eyebrow. “Yeah, no worries.” She runs back out of the room as quickly as she entered.
    We sit on the edge of my bed.
    “Are you sure you want to ask her if you can move in here. You won’t have much private space or an office to work in.”
    “Baby, anywhere you are is perfect for me. It’s only for a month, and since being with you, I’ve learned what is
