“I don’t want you to ever hold back if there’s something you want,” Gideon murmured. “You can’t spend all your time trying to second-guess me. Or anybody else. You lost six months with Emma because of that. And if you really want this, I don’t want you to lose this, too.”


“I don’t know why I didn’t see that coming,” Jesse said softly. “Since you’ve given me everything else I’ve ever wanted.”


“All part of your continuing charm.” Reaching across Jesse’s body, Gideon grasped his other hand to force him to roll into Gideon’s side, slipping his arm beneath Jesse’s shoulders to hold him close. “For whatever reason, you never expect anything but the worst. It makes it fun for me to surprise you with the best, then.”


“I don’t always expect the worst,” Jesse said, his arm draping over Gideon’s stomach. “You should go back to sleep. There’s still a few hours to dusk.”


“You do,” Gideon argued, but already, his eyes were closed. “But that’s okay. I love you anyway.”
