“Ash.” He smiled. In that new way. The out-of-work way.
But he probably wouldn’t be smiling that way in a second. Because I was about to come off completely insane. A stage fiveclinger alert for sure. He was going to think I was a total psycho. But that’s what blowjobs were for.
I walked up to his desk and placed both my hands firmly on it. So that I wouldn’t be tempted to run out of his office screaming. “I had a lovely time meeting your family. They’re all wonderful.”
He raised his eyebrow at me. “Even my grandmother?”
“She was actually my favorite.”
“Interesting.”
I smiled.
He smiled back.
“Speaking of your grandmother, I know how important this wedding is to her. And to you.”
“What wedding?”
“Our wedding, silly bean.”God, Mr. Frost, be cool! Ghazi is listening!
“Ourwedding?”
“Yes.”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“Babe!” I lifted my ring and flashed it at him. “How many times are we going to have this conversation. An engagement ring is only the first step to locking me down. You won’t truly have meuntil I walk down the aisle. So I think we should move the date up.”
“Move what date up?”
He was being so dense right now. I laughed awkwardly. “I know we talked about a summer wedding...”
“We definitely did not talk about that,” he said firmly.
“Gah. You like never listen to me when the game is on. Classic man.” I rolled my eyes.
“What game?”
He was talking too much. I rounded the desk to get closer to him. “The Christmas American football game.”
“Why did you just call it American football?”
Because Tanner is in my head! Damn it!“I always do. You know this.”
“I actually don’t know much about you...”
“Hush.” I pressed my finger against his lips. “I know you don’t know much about my...um...” I looked down at the front of my skirt. “Since we’re waiting for marriage.”
“What is happening right now?”
“That’s what I’m trying to tell you. I think we should move up the summer wedding. I don’t want to wait any longer. I’m...desperate for you.”
“You are?” He looked completely shocked by this.
“Yes. So...let’s do the wedding in January. I’m thinking the second weekend. It gives us enough time to plan without being too rushed.”
“Ash, there isn’t going to be a wedd...”
