“Are you…?” Another tear slips down my cheek, and I swipe at it with my jacket sleeve.

He shakes his head with a laugh. “I’m not. C’mon, give me some credit. I wouldn’t propose to you in a freezing fucking car outside a strip mall.”

I smile.

He looks pensive. “But I will. Someday. I want this… this stupid shit we do? I want the forever package. I wanna travel with you, and marry you, and have babies with you, and then show them how to destroy Uncle Marcus on Rainbow Road.”

I laugh. “Really?”

“Hell yes!” He takes both my hands in his, rubbing my freezing fingers. “We’ll teach them all our stupid shit. I wanna do all that stuff. As long as it’s with you.”

I take a breath and let it out, nodding. “Stupid shit forever?”

His smile is everything. “Stupid shit forever.”
