Chapter 12

Ags

Something was definitely in the air, and it wasn’t the tantalizing smell of the meal she was preparing either.

Ever since she’d gotten back from the grocery store, Jeb had been acting unusually warm towards her. She liked it—there wasn’t a doubt about that—but it made her curious about his motives.

After what had happened in her room earlier that day, it took a solid hour of talking to Benji to bring her back to her senses. Running away from Prairie Town because somebody loved her would have been the stupidest thing to do.

She loved him, too. Why was it so hard just to say that?

“Don’t toss it away just because you think you aren’t worth it, Ags. You are,” Benji had insisted. “I mean, look at me and Laney, yeah? I definitely don’t deserve that girl, but she loves me anyway. I’m lucky to have that. I’m marrying her.”

She could recall a time, not so long ago, when a similar conversation had taken place in the bathroom of their old apartment. He was definitely one of her very best friends; a person who would never lie to her or lead her astray.

If he could find that love and happiness, though he felt he didn’t deserve it, and was brave enough to take the plunge, why couldn’t she do the same?

Gran’s words echoed in her mind again as she stirred the sauce on the stove.

“Nobody gets placed on this earth without good reason, and everybody deserves happiness.”

Gods, if only she was still around. She’d know exactly what to do or say.

But how would she feel about me being in love with her grandson?

Her heart fluttered at the thought and another big, goofy smile found its way onto her lips. It felt so nice to feel this way.

“Hey, do you need any help?”

Those strong, wonderful arms wrapped around her from behind and she instantly leaned against him, eyes closing.

“It’s almost done now,” she said, turning her head so his lips could find hers. It was weird, but she somehow sensed he was coming in for a kiss. She wanted all of those she could get.

“Good,” he murmured, pecking at her mouth gently. “Don’t forget to call Lydia after dinner, okay? She really wants to talk to you.”

“I know she does.”

They were having such a nice night together; she hated the thought of ruining it by calling Lydia back, but her best friend needed her. She couldn’t begin to imagine what it was like, either.

Lydia, the most amazing individual ever created, had somehow found herself becoming an insta-mom—a term she’d learned by reading a lot of books from Bookleberry Finn’s. Insta-anything was terrifying, but the stories she’d devoured like candy always ended with a happy ending.

Hopefully that meant Lydia and Callum wouldn’t have any issues welcoming Byron into their home, where he would grow up with the most incredible parents ever.

But that also meant that it would soon be time to say goodbye to De Casa Reynolds and return to her cramped apartment.
