Jensen tossed another log onto the fire, snatching his hand back when red and orange embers swirled from the disruption.
He stepped over Tareena’s hips, draped with their blanket, where she laid on her stomach, arms crossed under her head as she watched the flames burn.
He laid back down beside her, palm sweeping circles over her back, smiling when he felt her ribcage expand and contract with her sigh, turning her head to look at him in the firelight.
He grinned, leaning down to kiss her, propping his own head up on his arm.
“Can you believe it?” he grinned, “One year.”
She smiled back, shifting onto her side and tangling her legs with his, pulling herself closer to him.
“Doesn’t seem like it’s been that long,” she whispered.
“Hasn’t been long enough,” he rumbled back, leaning down to kiss her again, pulling back to stare into her eyes in silence.
“My baby girl,” he whispered, sweeping his hand over her cheek as he leant forward, kissing the tip of her nose before brushing his lips over hers.
She sighed, forehead pressed against his and closed her eyes in bliss. Opening them a second later, eyelids heavy with relaxation.
He just watched her for a moment, lost in her eyes.
“Marry me,” he whispered, thumb sweeping across the pulse point on her neck.
“Okay,” she smiled, hand cupping his jaw when he bent to kiss her.
