For drivingbuyingwashingunderwear, who requested the first sentence, "I just want you to be happy. And maybe just a little bit naked."


"I just want you to be happy. And maybe just a little bit naked."

"How about all the way naked?"

He pretends to think about it. "I could settle for that."

She smiles.

"There we go. One down, naked to go."

She laughs. "Oh, so now I'm happy?"

He closes the distance between them, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her close. He looks down at her face. "I think so."

"Pretty sure of yourself."

He shakes his head. "Sure of you."

"Of me?"

"Of how much you love me."

She brings her lips up to his in a brief kiss. "Good. That's one thing I never want you to doubt."

"But I'm still going to have to cave on this, aren't I?"

She nods once. "Yes. Yes, you are."

"Okay," he sighs and releases his hold. "We'll go with rocky road. But next time -"

"We'll get mint chocolate chip," she finishes for him, opening the freezer door and selecting a carton. She drops it into the grocery cart and beams at him. "And tonight there will be nakedness."

"All the way nakedness."

"All the way nakedness," she confirms.

"My favorite kind."
