“Get your hands off of me. You smell like sex and after listening to you two for the past half hour, you’re lucky I waited to send your daughter in after the moanin’ stopped.”
I smacked the back of his head. “You stupid ass. She saw Ty naked.” Conner shook head, while I looked to Ty for help. “Are you going to say somethin’?”
“I quit my job today.”
That was not what I expected him to say. “You what?”
He shrugged and grabbed me by the waist. “I gave my notice yesterday. The farm is doing awesome and Conner and I have more work than he can handle alone. Harvey and my dad are getting old, so it’s time I take things on full time.” I was totally in shock. I guess I just never thought he would do it. “Say something.”
“When is your last day?” It was all I could think of.
“It was supposed to be next week, but the boss said I can go ahead and started getting my shit out of there. His brother in law lost his job, so he’s just going to take my spot.” He grabbed my hands and kissed them. “Baby, that’s why I want you to stay home. I want to be able to have lunch with my wife every day. I want to be able to stop in and see you if I get free moments. I don’t want you to have to ask for days off. You have your own clients, you can cut their hair here if you want.”
“You’re goin’ to get sick of seein’ me all the time.”
Ty looked me right in the eye. He brought his lips to my forehead and kept them there. “There is no way I could ever get tired of seeing my beautiful wife. If I haven’t proved myself to be a devoted husband and father then I don’t know what else to do but spend every moment giving you everything your little heart desires. I love our life, Miranda.”
I was so happy. My family was healthy, my children were perfect and I had the best husband anyone could ever want. I wrapped my arms around my husband and knew this was just the beginning of something wonderful. “I love you too, Ty.”
