“More like making plans.” She reached for him, and he came down on top of her, his lips hovering just above hers. “I will never have the words to adequately thank you for what you did today.”

“Neither will I.”

“Wait, what did I do?”

“You married me. You made me the happiest guy to ever walk this earth just by saying ‘I do.’”

“That was all it took?”

“Yep.”

“That was nothing compared to what you did.”

“I couldn’t stand to see you so worried. It was killing me.”

She touched the ring on his finger, loving the way it looked there. “We’re going to have to take these off, or we’ll give ourselves away.” They’d asked the people who were there today to keep their secret so as not to take anything away from the big day they had planned for next Saturday. Other than Paul, they planned to tell no one else about their first wedding.

“I know, but we can leave them on tonight.”

“Yes, we can,” she said, smiling up at him. “Can you believe we’re actually married?”

“No, I can’t. This whole thing has been like a dream. From the first moment your tomato hit my back, I’ve been living the sweetest dream I’ve ever had.”

She blinked back tears. “You saved me.”

He shook his head. “We saved each other.”

Trailing a finger down his chest, she looked up at him. “I had a surprise for you today, too, but yours totally trumped mine.”

“I love surprises, especially your kind. Do tell.”

“You know that other project we’ve been working on for a while now?”

“The house?”

She shook her head. “The other one,” she said, waggling her brows. Taking his hand, she laid it flat upon her abdomen. “Success.” Just as she would never forget what he’d done for her, neither would she forget the look of stunned amazement that overtook his face when he realized what she was telling him.

“Yeah?” he asked in a gruff tone as tears filled his eyes.

“Uh-huh. I think that’s part of the reason why I’ve been such an emotional basket case lately.”

“When did you find out?”

“This morning. I had planned to tell you at bedtime.”

He gathered her up into a tight hug. “Jenny… God, could this day get any better?”
