Eva & Her Striker (Book One Of The "And Her" Series) (Unedited)

Chapter Fifty Two-Eva

I scoff and roll my eyes "Figures,"

He grins at my response, He puts one hand over the LCD screen, pressing the play button on the steering wheel

"Reckon you'd know who this is" he teases

Just then I hear Justin Timberlake voice coming through the speakers— I recognise the song That girl—

"JT" I say smugly, I lay my head back listening to JT's voice
Didn't have to run, I knew it was love from a mile away
But I had to catch you, been running through my mind all day, baby

I've always loved this song, but I've never actually listened to the words of the song, the meaning behind it.

"I love this song" I smile listening to the words of the song

"I love you" he whispers kissing my hand "This makes me think of that day, when we first met, I think it's speaks volumes. Of how I felt, and how I feel now" he smiles shyly

"I love you too, baby. I think music helps you express yourself better— So Yeah, I understand, baby" I smile squeezing his hand

He smiles sighing happily as he focuses back on the road "Are you looking forward to seeing everyone?" He asks

"As much as I didn't wanna come home, I have missed everyone, think that's the longest I've ever been away from everyone, apart from the hospital times" I smile sadly

"Hey, No sad faces. Not today, baby. Today is when we tell everyone our news" he smiles brightly "I can't wait to tell everyone, I swear baby, you have made me that happiest man on the planet, 2018 is going to be an exciting year." He grins

What?!? is he wanting to be married soon? Am I ready for that?

"Why? when are you wanting to be married?" I ask biting my lip

He frowns at me "Well, sooner rather than later baby. Call me a selfish fucker, but I wanna have you living with me, have my name and have my baby growing in your belly like, Now!" He growls

Fuck, I love it when he growls at me, so fucking sexy, fuck. No, Focus, Eva.

"Don't you think that's a bit too soon though, baby? I mean don't get me wrong, I love you, with all my heart— and I want all that with you too, but don't you wanna be engaged for a bit first?" I ask

He gives me a puzzled look looking at the road and back to me "Hell no baby! I don't wanna wait, you told me yourself your mum and dad were engaged within four months of being with each other. You were born not long after?!? Why can't we have the same? I've seen your mum and dad's love, that's how I see us in 20 years time, please baby" he croons kissing my hand "Please say yes" he pouts with puppy dog eyes

Fuck, how can I say no to that? To that gorgeous face? I sigh grinning "Okay, but we'll plan it all, yeah?" I say giving in to this beautiful man

"I reckon we should get married on your 21st! On our birthday's!" He grins

"But that's a Wednesday" I frown
