âKaylaâ¦â Chase says from the seat next to me, breaking up the pleasant âwhat ifâ thoughts that have been scrolling through my mind the last several minutes of our drive. I blink, shaking my head to clear the haze and realize weâve pulled up to The Bluffs Estates.
âWhatâs up?â
âAbout earlier, I know I called you my girlfriend and we didnât really talk about it beforehandâ¦or after, for that matter, andâwhy are you looking at me like that?â His forehead creases in response to the side smirk creeping up my face.
âNo reason. Go onâ¦â
âSummer will be over soon, and I know youâll be busy with school and the internship, and Iâll have a new position at work to figure out butâ¦â
âButâ¦?â I encourage him. Heâs rambling, which is adorable because I already know the answer to the question heâs about to ask.
âBut⦠I want this. I want you to be mine, and I want to be yours. Soâ¦will you?â
âWill I, what?â I tease, trying to keep a straight face while I watch him squirm. This feels like good payback for all the times heâs flustered me out of speech. Plus, heâs cute when heâs nervous.
He blinks. ââ¦Will you be mine?â
âOh, um, no, Chase. I canât,â I say, shrugging while I force an apologetic look on my face.
He opens his mouth and closes it again, confusion settling into every line of his face. âYouâ¦canât?â He knits his brows together as he stares straight at me.
âNope.â
ââ¦Why?â he asks quietly, rubbing the back of his head like it will help him make sense of this conversation.
âBecauseâ¦â I whisper, pulling him by his shirt so weâre eye level. âI already have a boyfriend.â I smile, poking my tongue into my cheek while I watch the realization ease the pinching on his face.
âGod, Kaylaâ¦â He puffs out a deep breath, slapping his hand to his chest and flinging his head back against the headrest.
I lose it with laughter in the passenger seat, and Iâm still in a fit of giggles when Chase pulls me out of the car and leans me against the side. He steps in close, grazing my nose with his. âYou scared the hell out of me, baby,â he murmurs. âI thought you were serious.â
âBaby?â I ask, feigning shock. I like the way the simple word rolls off his lips, like he handcrafted it just for me. Pet names have never been my thing, but he could call me baby for an eternity and I donât think Iâd get sick of hearing it.
âYep.â He lifts his hand to the crook of my neck. âBaby.â
I tip up on my toes, giving him the apology for my prank in the form of a kiss.
Two kisses.
Okay, three, for good measure.
âHey, whenever you two are done sucking face, dinnerâs ready!â Hunter yells from the porch while looking down at the phone in his hand. He slips back inside the house, and Chase sneaks one more kiss before we head inside.
The smell of something heavenly flows through the air.
