Spiked by Love (Bellevue Bullies 6)

I nod. “I know. I planned it that way.”

“I dislike you—greatly.”

“I know. Now, shut up and let me propose.”

“You guys are the weirdest couple I’ve ever tattooed,” Aaron informs us, but in this room, it’s only her and me.

“It’s crazy that I never thought I’d find someone who would complete me so fully. But not only did I find you, you’re my best friend,” I say, cupping her jaw. “It’s bittersweet because you have not only given me someone to love, but someone to lose.”

“You won’t lose me.”

“I know. I put the ring on your left hand.”

She gives me a sly grin. “True. That locks me down.”

“Exactly,” I say, and I can’t stop smiling. I pinch her chin before dropping to my knee. “So, best friend, wanna be my life?”

“You mean wife?”

“Nope, because you’re more than that. You’re everything.”

“Oh, so smooth.”

“I know. So, say yes so I can kiss the living hell out of you.”

She cups my face, running her thumb along my bottom lip. “I’ll never forget this moment, just as I never forget any that include you.”

I kiss her thumb. “Let’s make all the memories, Ally T.” A tear rolls down her face, and I grin up at her. “Say yes, woman. Stop leaving me hanging.”

Her face breaks into a wide smile before she wraps her arms around my neck. “Yes, Asher. It’s only ever been yes for you.”

I stand, lifting her off her feet as our lips meet. I can’t believe I’m so lucky to be in love with the one person who knows me better than anyone else. My best friend. I love her in every way possible, and I know she loves me just the same. As our lips move together, I am certain as long as we’re together, we will have it all.

And that’s all I’ve ever wanted.

The one person to make me feel entirely whole and comfortable.

My life.

My Ally T.
