Life With Jeremy

Chapter Six

Jeremy was released the next day, and we were thankful that he wasn't too banged up. He and I talked on the way home, and even though we still didn't know what he had been allergic to, we decided to start making changes to the way we ate.

Annie was excited to see us when we got home, and she ran straight for Jeremy. He smiled, as he picked her up, and they went off to play. I wondered how I had been so lucky to end up with Jeremy. He was truly the perfect gentleman, and some days I still couldn't believe that he was my husband.

Annie went down for her nap not too long after we got home, leaving us to talk.

"Rowan, what would you think about having another baby?"

"I don't know... it's not that I don't want another baby."

"You just wonder if the timing is right. I get that."

"Yeah, but I mean...Do you want another baby?"

He just looked at me and nodded. We'd talked about having several kids, but life had been so busy lately, it hadn't even been on my mind.

"Annie is old enough, and I don't know..."

Jeremy looked a little disappointed, and I knew deep down I wanted another child as much as he did.

"Jeremy, I want another baby too. And I think we should try."

His eyes lit up, as he pulled me into a kiss.

"We have a week for our honeymoon, at our house at Lake Tahoe."

"And I promise we can start trying then. I want our ceremony to be over first."

"Me too. Rowan, you have made me the happiest guy in L.A."
I just smiled, as I moved to straddle his lap.

"Well then, are you sure you can put up with late night cravings, and needing you more than ever?"

"Are you kidding? Of course I can. I will do whatever you need me to do."

I placed a kiss on his lips, before placing my hands on his shoulders, and started to kiss along his jawline, and down his neck, sucking on his pulse point, making sure I left a mark.

"Rowan..."

"Payback, baby... I had to hide three of your love bites the other day."

I pulled him into a heated kiss, before pulling away, and made a run for it. It took him a moment to realize what was going on, before he took off after me.

"You rascal. I'm going to make you pay for that."

I laughed, as I jumped over the counter into the kitchen, and did my best to run out of the kitchen before he could grab me. I'd made it two feet out of the kitchen when he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me to him.

"Nice try, baby..."

"Well I had to try."

I replied with a wink. I yelped in surprise as he picked me up bridal style.

"I am going to get my payback..."

"Oh you wouldn't...."

"Try me, baby."

He said with a smirk as he carried me to our bedroom. The instant the door was shut, his lips were on mine, and I knew I had lost the battle.
