Once the scary bit, the part about our futures and being committed, the part I used to always avoid in the past, is out in the open, Keira and I dive into our date with our guards down.

“Try this sticky toffee pudding.” She holds her spoon out, and I lean forward, eating the bite.

“Jesus, that’s amazing,” I admit, licking my lips.

“It’s the best here,” Keira agrees, scooping another bite onto her spoon. “What’s it like? Living in London. Always traveling to America. To me, your life seems like one grand adventure.”

Peering at her, her blue eyes spark with curiosity. These are the conversations Keira and I always used to have. Ones about family and life, our passions and purpose. I’ve never talked to anyone about the things I discussed with her, and her genuine curiosity reminds me just how much she’s always cared.

“It is an adventure. I love traveling, seeing new places, meeting new people. And don’t get me wrong, it has been a lot of fun. But eventually, living in London or America or wherever is like living any place. It’s not so much about the place as it is about the people.”

“Do you miss your family?”

“More so than I ever thought I would. It’s different now that Sierra has the baby. I don’t want to miss Luna’s entire life.”

“Sierra’s in New York?”

“Yes, for now. But I think she and Denver will eventually move back to Georgia. That’s where he’s from, and he has two brothers. Sierra wants Luna to grow up around family. I think she’ll start spending summers and holidays here in Scotland. It’s hard being away for all of those good moments.”

“Callum’s in London,” Keira points out, mentioning my stepbrother.

“Aye. But he’s starting his own family now. He has an entire network in London, having spent most of his life attending school there. It’s different for me. Half Scottish, half Native American, US Citizen, living in London, with my family scattered around. I don’t want to just exist somewhere anymore. I want to live somewhere and build a home, create a family, look forward to a future.”

“Apple picking and horseback riding?”

Grinning, I nod. “Yeah, babe. Apple picking and horseback riding. But only with you.”

“So, we’re dating then?” Keira asks, and I can tell she needs clarification; she needs me to spell it out for her and give her the reassurances I’ve denied for too long. The moments of hesitation that keep popping up make me feel like a dick and I hate being reminded how much heartache I’ve caused this incredible woman.

“I’m yours, Keira Kearns. One hundred percent in. And by the first dance at the Valentine’s Day gala, you’ll be mine.”

“You’re pretty confident there, Begay.”

“I’ve never been so sure of anything in my life.”
