Chapter 35

“It's going to be a long night. I'm going to tell you everything. Are you ready?” He asked while he brushed my hair behind my ear.

“I'm ready,” I replied.

“Okay, first things first. Don't be shocked at how the pool house looks, okay? It was supposed to be a surprise for your birthday in a couple of weeks,” he said as he held my face with his hands. “I guess now's a good time as any.” He paused while he gained his composure and said in a shaky voice, “Freya Rose, will you move in with me?” He asked with a slightly worried look on his face.

I quickly threw my arms around his neck and he stumbled backwards, I guess he wasn't expecting that sort of reaction.

“Yes, of course, I will, I love you so much, Tristan,” I squealed with pure excitement.

He replied instantly,

“I'm so happy that you said yes.”

His words didn't match his tone, they sounded a little sad. I pulled back to look at his face.
