Chapter Ten

Ben snuck up the stairs of the Mathews’ home and made his way into Dylan’s old room. It was a familiar journey that left him all warm and fuzzy inside. It was ridiculous, really, but he loved every second of it because he loved where the journey ended—with his Dylan.

He closed the door and saw the little lump in her bed that he recognized immediately. That lump, after all, was soon going to be his wife. He watched to see if she was moving, even though he knew she was probably awake and waiting for him to slide in next to her. Some things never change.

He undressed down to his boxer briefs and stood above her bed. He pulled back the sheets and looked down at her lovely body, in nothing but a tank top and a pair of lacey boy shorts. Mine, he thought and smiled to himself.

He slid into bed and pressed himself against her as he pulled the sheets over them.

“Hi,” she said sleepily.

“Hi, baby,” Ben breathed into her ear and placed a gentle kiss on her neck. “Miss me?”

“Mmhmm,” she groaned. “I thought you weren’t coming back until tomorrow.”

“I couldn’t wait any longer. I changed flights so I could surprise you in your old bed.”

Dylan giggled and flipped onto her back so she could look at his face. “Just like old times,” she whispered.

“Exactly,” he said, and lowered his mouth to hers.

Dylan ran her fingers through his hair and sighed into his kiss. He could never tire of this perfect woman and the way she loved him. Some days he wanted to pinch himself just to make sure it was all real.

He pulled back and smiled down at her. He lifted a smooth strand of her hair and twirled it around in his fingers. “Mrs. McKenna,” he whispered, and flashed her a dazzling smile.

Her hand cupped the side of his face. She ran her thumb over his lips and just stared at him, taking in every ounce of him. “I love you,” she said, so quietly that it made him tilt his head in question.

“What’s wrong?”

“Charlie,” she whispered, and nearly choked. “I think I messed up.”

Ben sighed and shook his head. “What happened with the cupcake girl?”

“The cupcake girl,” she repeated and tried not to laugh. “Lucy,” she corrected. “Her name is Lucy. I said it twenty times on the phone the other day.”

“Okay, sorry … what happened with Lucy?”

Dylan sat up a little and Ben rested his head on her chest. He would listen to this story, but only if he could put his cheek on her breasts. “She came to Jack’s party. She didn’t seem to want to, but I, of course, made her feel bad until she agreed to come back.”

“Strike one,” Ben teased. He slid his hand inside her shirt and rested it on her stomach.

“Shhh,” she scolded. “It gets worse. Everyone likes her: my mom, Hugh, Jonah, Jackson … Charlie, obviously. Anyway, things were going great until we went
