Fallon shook her head. “My dad would have a fit.”
“So? He wouldn’t know until you go home and when is that? In three years?”
Fallon giggled. “I do go home for holidays.”
Lucas shrugged his shoulders. “So get it somewhere he won’t see.”
“No, ‘cause the only place I want a tattoo is on my wrist.”
Lucas smiled as he picked up her hand and started to examine her wrist. “That would be a very sexy place for one.” She giggled as he ran his tongue along her wrist to her pinkie, where he softly bit. “We should get matching ones.”
She laughed as she pulled her hand from his, pushing him onto his back and crawling on top of him. “Isn’t that something you do with your soul mate?”
“Soul mate? What’s that?” he joked.
She smiled. “You know, that one person, like your momma always says. That person that takes your breath away with one glance, the person you’ll love for the rest of your life, the one that even after 90 years of marriage you still love like you did the very first day. You know, the one.” She gave him a shy smile and then snuggled her face into his neck, giggling.
Lucas smiled, taking in a deep breath as he ran his hands down her back onto the back of her thighs. He had fallen hard for this girl, and he knew he was going to love her for the rest of his life. No one understood him the way she did. No one could make him laugh the way she could. No one could make him feel safe like she did. She was his person, his one.
“You are my one,” he whispered.
She slowly raised her head and looked down at him with the biggest, brightest set of caramel eyes he had ever seen. He had never loved the color of someone’s eyes until Fallon. She was beyond beautiful, and she was all his. “How do you know?”
“Because I do”
Fallon’s eyes filled with tears as she glanced down at him. “Is that right?” she said, bringing her hands up to his face and cupping lightly.
“Oh yeah it’s right, my little country girl. You are mine for forever.”
Fallon gave him a small smile before pressing her lips to his. He kissed her with everything inside him, holding her close to him as he devoured her mouth. He hoped they didn’t get kicked out of the park for public display but then again, he didn’t care. Something else to tell the grandkids, he thought as he moved his hands up from her thighs to the middle of her back.
When they parted she grinned down at him and said, “You still love me?”
He laughed. It had been a week since they first told each other they loved each other, and for some reason, she was having a hard time believing him. To reassure her, he said, “Of course I do.”
“I love you too,” she gushed, running her nose along his. “So when we are totally devoted to each other and married with many little babies around us, we’ll go get matching wrist tattoos, okay?”
He nodded as he gazed lovingly up in her eyes. “Totally devoted?”
“Yup, totally devoted.”
“Who says I’m not totally devoted now?”
Fallon giggled. “You very well may be, but we are not married and there are no babies around us.”
Lucas gave her a naughty grin before he smacked her ass playfully, pressing his hard-on into her cushion of softness. “Wanna start practicing for those babies?”
Fallon laughed. “You were a total horn dog back then.”
Lucas looked over at her, confused. “I’m not anymore? Man, I’m going to have to step up my game.”
Fallon continued to laugh and Lucas joined in, leaning against her as their bodies shook with laughter. When they calmed down, he brought her wrist up to his lips, kissing it lightly as he looked into her eyes. “Totally devoted?”
Fallon took in a sharp breath as she nodded. “Totally devoted.”
“I’m there, Fal.”
Fallon let out the breath she was holding as she shook her head. “What if I’m not?”
Lucas’ heart broke a little, but he could tell she wanted to be there with him by the way she was gazing into his eyes. “You may not be now, but I think you are almost there.”
Fallon nodded. “I’m trying.”
“That’s all I can ask for.”
Fallon leaned her head against his, placing a sweet soft kissed against his lips. As they parted he ran his nose along hers before reconnecting their lips. Lucas slid his hand along Fallon’s legs, pulling her closer for more, but she stopped him with a giggle as she pulled back.
“What?”
She shook her head, moving away from him. She crossed her legs and fixed her skirt before saying, “Not only are we on a plane, Aiden is right next to you.”
Lucas shrugged his shoulders. “We are at the back, and Aiden isn’t even paying attention.”
Aiden chose that moment to turn and looked up at them with wide eyes. “Are we almost there? I’m bored.”
Lucas let out a groan as Fallon giggled, pulling Aiden across Lucas into her lap. As Lucas watched them play a game on Fallon’s phone, his control was snapping.
When the hell were they going to get naked again!?
 
Watching Aiden’s face at Disneyland brought Fallon to tears. She cried the whole time and she knew that both Lucas and Aiden thought she was crazy, but she didn’t care. It was true; Disneyland was the most magical place on earth! The day went too quickly for Fallon and she wished they could have done it over. Aiden was in heaven and Fallon could honestly say that Lucas was too. She wasn’t sure if her favorite part of the day was watching Aiden meet Mickey for the first time or if it was when she and Lucas kissed beneath Sleeping Beauty’s castle. Both times were magical and she would remember them for the rest of her life.
