“Thank you,” she whispers.
“For what?” I ask.
“For not being a stupid bitch anymore.” She gives me a playful smile. I pinch her ass, then give it a slap when she stands.
“Watch how you talk to me, missy, or I’ll have to bend you over my knee, and make your ass as red as your blushing cheeks are.” I raise a brow at her, but the only reaction I get is her eyes growing hooded.Oh, my girl would love that.
“But really, thank you, for loving me.”
I give her a sweet smile. “E, loving you is the easiest thing I’ve ever done. It's just taken me a while to see that it was more than just ‘as friends.’ And, E...”
“Yes?” she asks, her big green eyes looking at me in a way I’ve seen before, but was too blind to really understand.
“Thank you for waiting.”
