“Okay, now let’s get into the really sexy stuff…logistics,” I said, laughing as Miles poured us each a second glass of wine.

He took his place on the couch and smiled that damn smile. “Hot. If we talk too much logistics, I might break your first rule.”

I rolled my eyes but laughed along. “I’ll risk it. So, obviously I live here. I have two roommates and we all share the cost on a loft. Jazz and Lo aren’t hurting for cash, but I can’t just bail on them.”

“Right,” Miles paused for a sip. “But it will look kind of weird if we live in separate cities for too long. Do you think you could get everything sorted and move in thirty days?”

“From now?” The idea boggled my mind.

“I have a house in Georgia. You’ll have your own walk-in and separate bath if you want. We’ll buy you a car since it’s not a cab town and I doubt you’d wanna take the bus.”

I laughed. “Right. A car…I should probably learn how to drive one of those…”

Miles slapped a hand over his face. “Okay, adding that to the top of our to-do list.”

I shrugged. “I’ve been here almost my entire life and when I’m not, I’m at my family’s home and they use drivers for everything.”

“I get it,” Miles said, smiling. “But yeah, we’re fixing that. We’ll get you something safe. With lots of airbags…”

I chucked a throw pillow at him. “Very funny. You should go into comedy, ya know. Screw this bike thing.”

Miles grinned at me and set the pillow aside. “I’ll take that into consideration. So what else ya got?”

“Hmm. Thirty days to move. House. Car. Walk-in. What about meeting your parents?”

Miles sat up a little straighter. “Ugh. Good point. I’ll figure that part out.”

“How long are we going to be engaged? Do I get a big rock?”

“Sure.” Miles laughed and relaxed back once we were on a safer topic. “As for the time line, I was thinking twenty-four hours.”

My mouth fell open.

“I have to be back to the base by Tuesday. I think we pop over to Hawaii, get hitched on the beach, and then you fly back here, and I’ll go to Georgia. Then at the end of the month, I’ll have your stuff moved down to my place and you’ll fly down after it.”

“You’ve got this all mapped out, huh?”

“What can I say?” He flashed a cocky grin. “I work well on the fly.”

I nodded and let his plan sink in. It wasn’t fast. It was warp speed.

But, what objections could I have? I didn’t have a job, technically. My photos were all done and ready to be shipped off to whichever publisher Miles could hook me up with. If I had my camera gear, I could start a new project, or work on my website and finish setting up my prints side of the business. Jazz and Lo would miss me, and I them, but we’d be just a few hours away on a plane. It wouldn’t be a big deal to come up once a month for a girls’ night or vice versa.
