Neil was killing me

Leilani

A goddamn mansion!

My lips dropped open, eyes widening in disbelief. What in the world— "N-Neil? What is going on?" I glanced over in his direction to see him walking around the car to come stand beside me, a small smile on his face in the dark of the night. When he got close enough, he took my hand in his bigger one, with his eyes locked in mine, and raised it up to his chest.

He brought my hand to rest against his broad, firm chest right over his beating heart and I could feel the warmth of the body under my palm through the wool of his hoodie. "Leila, this is going to be our new home. I have been secretly trying to get the most beautiful house I could get my hands on for a while now, with the help of your sister, of course. And when I saw this house, I knew immediately that it was the perfect wedding surprise."
