Aaron laughs. "Sure she does, Cassie. She loves you."

"She doesn't," I insist, stubborn. "She liked me before she found out we were dating, and then everything went downhill from there."

He steps around the island to come closer to me and he wraps me in a hug. "She adores you, Cassie, almost as much as I do."

I feel myself soften in his arms as I rest my head on his chest and wrap my arms around him.

He drops his chin to rest on the top of my head, and he says, "You know something, Cassie?" He continues when I make a sound of acknowledgement. "I think we should get started on the baby-making process a little earlier."

I gasp and push him away from me. "Aaron!"

"What?" he laughs. "It was just a suggestion."

"You're such a horny male."

"I mean, can you blame me? I haven't had sex in six months now, and all I can think about is having it with you."

I roll my eyes, and I have to bite my lip to stop my grin from showing.

Aaron's eyes darken and become trained on my mouth. He stares for a few seconds before seeming to shake himself out of whatever trance he was in. His hand lifts to his hair and runs through it. "Please don't do that."

I furrow my eyebrows. "Do what?"

He looks at me again and his eyes darken once more. "That. And the thing before. Don't bite your lip, or furrow your eyebrows, or do anything remotely sexy." I laugh, but it gets cut off when he presses me back against the sink and then presses himself against me. "Or that," he growls. "Definitely do not laugh."

"Okay, well, what can I do?"

He shrugs instead of answering. "We really should get started early."

"I'm not looking to be a mom before twenty-five, Aaron," i tell him, and I'm serious. Teenage motherhood is not a club i want to join.

But, the idea of a tiny little baby makes my heart pound with joy in my chest.

"I'm guessing you're one of those not until marriage types, huh?"

I roll my eyes. "No. But," I say quickly, hoping to get rid of the excited twinkle in his eyes. "I'm not willing to risk getting pregnant before I'm twenty-five. Okay?"

He stares at me, obviously struggling with agreeing to my statement, but he sighs in defeat. "Okay," he grumbles, reluctant. "Can I at least have a kiss?"

I immediately press my lips against his, removing them when he tries to deepen the kiss.

"Cassie," comes his whine. "C'mon."

"What?" I say through a laugh. "I gave you a kiss, didn't I?"

He pouts. "One more?" I give him another quick peck, but he doesn't let me move away as far as I did the first time. "Another one?" I give him another one, this one being longer than the first one, and when i pull back, my lips are pressed right against his. "Again," he says, his voice deep and husky, and I can't help but oblige.

He's successful in deepening it this time, picking me up and placing me on the countertop by the sink before stepping in between my open legs.

My hands find his hair and his find my hips, and soon we're making out in his kitchen.

A throat clearing causes me to push Aaron, who lets out a sound of protest, away from me. I cringe when I see Mrs. Brewer standing in the doorway.

She's grinning at me and Aaron, and her gaze turns into one of sheer excitement when it focuses on me.

"Oh, Aaron, I tried, honey, but I can't." She rushes over to me and grabs my face in her hands. "You're so perfect for my baby boy, I knew it from the second we met you, oh, you're so pretty and you don't put up with his shit–"

"Mom," Aaron groans. "Come on, you promised you would try and restrain yourself."

"I tried, didn't I?" she snaps. Her attention returns to me. "Oh, I can't wait until you two have little babies running around, they're going to be so cute–"

"Roxanne!" Mr. Brewer calls out, causing Mrs. Brewer to move away from me and head out of the room towards her husband.

I look at Aaron, shocked.

"See? I told you she likes you."
