Serendipity

Chapter 25

I awake to the sound of my phone buzzing on my nightstand. I groan and turn over, the light blinding me. It was Matt.

"Hey Babygirl, I wanted to make sure I was awake before I came down. I have to ask you something. Love you! ~Matt"

I smile and answer him.

"I'm awake now, give me 5 minutes and you can come down! 😘"

I roll out of bed, and throw something random on. My hair was a disaster, so I fixed that too. I rush out of the bathroom, grab an apple and sit down on the couch waiting for Matt to arrive.

He comes inside, and I stand up walking over to him.

"Hey Kat." He kisses my forehead and I wrap my arms around him.

"Hi Matty."

"Matty?" I nod, and he chuckles at me.

"What? I like it!" I let go and walk back over to my couch, him following behind me.

"So what is your question my prince?"

"Well princess, were together all the time right?" I nod.

"Pretty much, why?" He turns his head, and I notice his face is bright red

"Matt why are you a tomato already, you haven't even said anything!" I giggle, and he sticks his tongue out at me.

"As I was saying, since we are with each other all the time, and because I love you so, so, so much, I was wondering if uh, you maybe wanted to move in with me."

I gasp, and I start to think about his question. He wants me to move in with him. Holy shit. What am I going to say?! It would be amazing, and I would have him all the time. But wouldn't we get sick of each other?

I stand up, my answer as clear as the sky this morning. I kiss him, and he wraps his arms around me lifting me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist, and deepen the kiss, my hands running through his hair. I pull away and he smiles at me.

"Is that a yes?" I nod and kiss him again. His lips tasted sweet like syrup, and I didn't ever want to stop.

He breaks the kiss, and we both have to catch our breath.

"Babe, I have a question for you too."

"And what would that be Babygirl?"

I smile, and bite my lip.

"How would you like to get a tattoo with me?" He smiles, and puts me down, he turns and starts to walk out. I stand there and stare in his direction.

"Well what are you waiting for? Let's go get some ink baby."

---

We arrive at the tattoo parlor, and a lady comes and leads us to the chairs.

"How can I help you today?" She smiles at me, her eyes crinkling in the corners.

"Well we would like matching tattoos." I pull out my phone and show her a picture.

She nods, and her and her partner get to work.

---

A few hours later, we walk out hand in hand, our tattoos exposed for everyone to see. His is a steering wheel, mine is an anchor. It says "Be the one to guide me but never hold me down."

"Matt, I love you so much."

"I love you too baby."

---
We arrive back at my place, and I head into my room. I grab out all of my suitcases and boxes from underneath my bed.

"What're you doing baby?"

"Moving in to your apartment silly!" I giggle, and toss some boxes at him.

"What furniture do I need to bring with me?"

"Maybe a dresser or two, and a second nightstand." I nod, and begin to place things into boxes.

Once we go through my room, we continue with the rest of my apartment, until finally we hit the living room.

"Do you have as many bookshelves as I do?" He nods.

"They're just empty."

"Not for long." I pack up the rest of the place and we begin to drag boxes upstairs.

---

After a few hours of unpacking, I sit down on his couch.

"This place looks great baby."

"Welcome home Kat."

I smile, and walk over to him. I gently place my lips onto his, and he lifts me up. I break the kiss, and he goes down to my neck, leaving a mark.

"You are my everything Kat, did you know that?"

"I do now." I lay my head on his shoulder, and he kisses my forehead.

"I don't know how I lived my entire life without you. You make me so happy, and I can't believe you're mine."

I smile.

"Only yours baby, and you are mine."

"As long as we both shall live."
