“Snap, you bought me a beautiful new bed.”

“I like room to move.”

That got my head lifted off his chest.

I looked into his eyes.

The snow was melty.

Very nice.

“We still haven’t had our conversation,” I pointed out.

“We’ll have it over dinner tomorrow.Tonight, we’repartying.”

I could make this deal so I nodded.

“Are you done crying?”he asked.

“I think so,” I answered.

“Wanna tell me why High and you were out here alone?”heasked.

“He wanted to claim responsibility for Bounty beingassholes.I refused to let him.Tack remembered what kind of beer I drank.ThenI lost it,” I answered.

His lips curled up.“Seems a plausible route to a cryingjag.”

My back straightened.“It’s thoughtful to remember the kindof beer someone drinks.”

“Babe, I hate to shatter the image you got of Tack but a manremembers the kind of alcohol a woman likes for reasons that are really notthoughtful.”

“He’s got a woman.He’s got no need to liquor another oneup.”

“Now he does that shit outta pure instinct.”

All of a sudden, I started giggling and I did it watchingSnapper’s lips form a big smile.

God, he was handsome.

Being stupid,stupidRosalie in the arms ofhandsome Snapper, I uncurled my fingers so I could press them to his chest,pressing myself there with them so I fit more perfectly in his arms.

And just to say, I fit pretty perfectly in his arms already.

Those arms closed snugger around me.

“The house is really amazing, Snap,” I told him.

“Minute I saw it, thought you’d like it.”

I blinked.

Then I stared.

After that, I started freaking again.

“When did you buy it?”I asked.

“Little over a year ago.”
