Watching Jenna pick me is probably the greatest moment in my life. Life with me wonât always be easy, and weâve recently talked in depth about it.
Over the last few days, Iâve told her about how life was when I first moved out here and was learning to survive. Granted, it wonât be that hard for her because she has me, and we have the guys for anything we donât know.
I introduced myself to her parents more as a âfuck youâ than anything else. They thought I wasnât good enough for her. Well, newsflash, I feel the same way about them. Anyone that treats this angel that way isnât good enough to share the same air as her.
As we stand and watch them head down the driveway, a peace falls over me. âIâm putting a gate at the driveway with a security box. You good with that?â
âYep, just give the guys the code because they should have it.â
âAgreed.â And Jack, I think.
Itâll take some finagling to get a buzzer system to the cabin, but sometimes itâs nice to have money because I can make just about anything happen. There isnât an amount of money I wouldnât spend to make sure my girl is safe.
I decide to end my day a bit early because I want to soak in the bath with Jenna. Itâs something Iâve been dreaming of since I first pictured her here in my cabin. So, after dinner, I lead her to the bathroom and get a hot bath going.
âRelax with me?â I ask.
âOf course, though I thought this would be more of a daytime tub to view the mountains,â she says, looking out the black window.
âJust wait,â I say as we start stripping out of our clothes. I get in the tub, and then help her in so she can sit with her back to my chest.
I use the remote to turn off the lights in the entire house. Once itâs dark, the stars come into view, and theyâre as clear as day.
âWow, this is amazing.â She gasps when she sees it.
I wrap my arms around her and hold her to me, letting the water soak our muscles. Iâm sure sheâs sore from moving the last few days and tense from dealing with her parents.
âSo, Iâve been thinking,â Jenna says.
I tense because my mind goes to the worst-case scenario, but I take a breath and let her talk. âOh, yeah?â I run my hands over her, calming myself.
âWe should put the table in my cabin. Itâs custom fit for it. Then maybe decorate the house and rent it out. Thereâs a place in town that will manage it, and we can put it up as a vacation rental. We wonât have to do anything because the company will take care of everything.â
âYou know we donât need the money? Are you wanting to hold on to it just in caseâ¦?â I canât bring myself to say, just in case this doesnât work out with us.
âNo, itâs not that. Itâs just the first thing I bought for myself, the first thing I did for myself, and I canât stand the thought of selling it. Not yet, anyway.â
âYou want to do a vacation rental instead of yearly rentals?â
âYeah, mostly because the furniture will stay there and itâs a great way to advertise your stuff.â
Any remaining tension I had is gone. âItâs perfect, baby.â
We both relax in the bath as our plans fall into place. Everything feels right like this is where we were both meant to end up.
