You saw me start to believe for the first time
Dinner, for Ed and Taylor was that part of the day in which they could talk, and this time around it wasn’t any different, this dinner was more special than what Taylor thought, this would mark the start of a new time in their lives. There were two presents left one he would give her that night and one for the last night of their vacation, but first he needed to make sure that Taylor would actually like his gift “Love, there is something I have been meaning to ask you” she looked up from her food, her blue eyes shining against the lights of the candles around them “you know you can tell me anything” he smiled at her but soon he turned serious “ I have a job offer back in the states, the university offered to transfer me to another university near the place I would work so…” she wrapped her hands on his “ so what Ed? You know you can tell me” he looked at their intertwined hands “I haven’t said yes, because I don’t know if you would want to move with me to the states and I wouldn’t be able to leave you and Anne for six months the least” Taylor placed a finger under his chin making him look up to her “so… ask me” Ed looked at her puzzled “ask you?” Taylor nodded “yes, ask me if I want to move back to the States with you” Ed grinned and kissed the back of her hands “Tay, do you want to move to the States with me?” she smiled and peck his lips “of course!”
They were on their room hours later, both sweaty after a really heated love making session, Taylor liked to think of this as a mini honey moon, even though there weren’t plans to get married, she liked to daydream about how her wedding would be, where they would go to the honey moon and how the proposal would be, she really liked to daydream but she didn’t have an idea how soon all of that wouldn’t be a dream anymore, Ed propped himself on his shoulder looking over at her, he tugged a lock of hair behind her ear “ Darling there is a house, I already looked at it but I would like you to see it, it on the outsides of L.A” she turned to her side to look at him eye to eye “ you thought about everything didn’t you?” he nodded in a childish demeanor “ do we have to go to L.A?” he shook his head indicating her it wasn’t necessary “ we can look at it online” Ed was secretly hoping that she would love the house, it was perfect for them and the future children they might have, big gardens and several rooms, she looked at the pictures over and over, she passed the laptop back at Ed several times to show him something of the house she loved.
The set of keys that were in a beautiful medium sized box on one of their suitcases, he was hoping to give them to her today, she had agreed to move back to the states, she had found the house lovely, but maybe it could wait, it would be a better distraction from the actual surprise, that was also waiting for her but in a much smaller box.
Taylor got him out of his thoughts “ Babe, what do you think about after settling down in L.A we start trying for a baby?” he looked at her with a puzzled but full of love look “ this was a little out of the blue love, Are you sure?” She smiled at him and looked down “I have been thinking about it for a while and I think we are ready, we have jobs, Annie is older now, I feel like it is the right time” Ed caressed the side of her face “I have a better idea, we start trying from now on, if it happens in the next month happens, but if it happens a year from now it will be ok too… What do you think about that?” Taylor laughed as Ed’s hands mischievously sneaked around her naked waist and bottom “I think that you want to start right now”.
It was funny how the talk about the future easily felt like it was right, like it was needed, if Taylor or Ed had doubts about their life together, they definitely didn’t anymore. The next day would be the end of their time as boyfriend and girlfriend and the start of their lives as husband and wife
