"She sounds like she was a wonderful person, Lucas."
"She was, she really was." He nodded his head. We fell silent for a moment before I broke it.
"How many kids do you want to have?" I asked the next random question.
"I would like two or maybe even four," he told me. "Can't be an uneven number."
"I want two. Would you want a boy or a girl first?"
"Girl, cause she'll look like you." His answer made my cheeks burn red. He was thinking of kids with me, whereas I had been thinking of kids in general. Now I can't stop picturing it. I hope they will come out as cute as him. Hopefully, not with my flaming red locks. I am not sure they'd care for it.
"You want to have kids with me?" I asked him, surprised.
"Of course I do. I told you I'm not letting you go ever again. I've tied my life to you already. I want to marry you, have kids with you, and grow old together. We'll retire together and live on some tropical island where we spend our days drinking out of coconuts, watching the waves roll in." I imagined it as he spoke, painting a beautiful picture in my head. I want the same thing.
"That sounds perfect."
"Then we'll make it happen. Wait and see, Rose. I'll make all your dreams come true." He kissed me before I could say anything, and I knew exactly where this was headed. This time he bent me over the couch and let the slap of our skin and my moans fill the air. Every time I think I am done, he finds another way to rile me back up. I don't think I'll ever tire of him.

"Good morning, sleepyhead. Ready to see me off?" Lucas woke me with a kiss reminding me he was leaving today. I frowned, not liking the fact.
"No," I pouted, making him laugh.
"Sorry, Rose, but I'd like to be said goodbye to at the airport."
"I know, I know. I am going. I wish you didn't have to leave," I said as I got up and off the bed.
We got ready, and then headed out once we were sure Lucas had everything he needed, even the journals. We took my car so I could drive it back from the airport without having to worry. I hated having to say goodbye, but I walked him to his gate and did so.
"Be good. Spend lots of time with your mom and Lisa. Please be careful up there, and make sure to text me often. Send me pictures if you can, and call me at night. I'm going to miss you terribly. You are my everything. This week can't go by fast enough. I love you." I confessed, wrapping my arms around his neck.
"I love you too, Olive. Be careful while I am gone. Don't let your dad see you when you go check in on your future sibling. Make sure to have fun with Hailey and Leo on Thanksgiving. Text me pictures too, as often as you like about anything at all. I'll miss you, Rose."
He kissed me sweetly, leaving me wanting more as he pulled away. I didn't take my eyes off him until I couldn't see him any more, disappearing into the crowd of holiday travelers. He's out of my field of vision and away from my side for the next week. I drove home, trying not to cry. It’s over dramatic, but God, did I miss him already.
I got back home safe, immediately grabbing one of Lucas' hoodies and putting it on, enveloping myself in his scent. I began to work on my projects, papers, and any unfinished work I needed to get done. It helped take my mind off my melancholy heart. It took me pretty much all day to finish my project and write one of my papers. Tomorrow I'll finish the rest and then head back home to Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
I decided to grab a small suitcase and pack enough for a couple of days. I don't plan on staying there more than one night. I packed myself what I needed, and a little extra in case of an emergency. You always want more than you need. I forced myself to eat dinner at least, but I was beginning to think I had caught some kind of stomach bug, because I was feeling kind of nauseous again.
My Knight:Made it.
Lucas' first text to me came through with a picture of him and Lisa. The cabin behind them glowed from the warm light pouring through the window. It was covered in snow making the two siblings pop out more. They sported large smiles, and it warmed my heart to see.
Olive:Have fun! I miss you already.
My Knight:Hard to have fun without my Rose :?'?( I miss you!
I sent him a picture of myself sprawled on the bed with my books all around me.
Olive:I dare say you're having more fun than me.
My Knight:I wish I was there with you. I miss you in my arms.
Olive:I know what you mean, but try, and enjoy yourself with your mom and Lisa. I know they could both use your happiness.
My Knight:Then I should have brought you.
