Chapter 55: nning the Future


    Bree woke up in Trent’s arms, but nothing had happened once they’d gotten to her hotel room. For that


    matter, nothing had happened on the beach either. Well, that wasn’t quite true. There’d been a lot of


    kissing, a lot of touching, but they hadn’t gone all the way. That was okay with Bree, though. She loved


    Trent, but she thought he was right to take things slow. He’d obviously just gotten out of a long term


    rtionship, and she was making the mental adjustment to thinking they’d never be together to


    realizing he was hers now.


    “Hey, beautiful,” Trent said, his eyes meeting hers. “How are you?” He brushed a lock of strawberry-


    blonde hair away from her face. Bree had taken a shower when they’de back to her room the night


    before while Trent went to his room to get a few things and also take a shower. They’d both been


    covered in sand. It had been well worth it, though.


    “I’m great. How are you?” she asked, leaning up to kiss him.


    “Better than I’ve been in a long time,” he replied, once he pulled away. “What time does your ne


    leave?”


    “Two o’clock.” How many times in thest week had she thought about making that an earlier flight?


    And now, she didn’t want to get on the ne at all.


    The night before, he’d talked about how he was supposed to be leaving for his honeymoon that


    morning. He should’ve been getting ready to go to the airport himself right now to catch a flight to the


    Bahamas. Instead, he was wrapped in Bree’s arms. He’d asked if she wanted to go with him, but when


    she told him she had a bunch of gigs booked over the next two weeks, he’dpletely understood.


    He’d also went ahead and cancelled all of the amodations so that Monica couldn’t use them.


    “Last night, after you went to sleep, I was thinking, I’ve got two weeks off from work. How would you


    feel about meing to Nashville for a while? I don’t have to stay with you if you don''t want me to, butAll rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    that will give me a chance to spend more time with you, and maybe I could even look at the possibility


    of opening a firm there.”


    Bree’s eyebrows arched. She could hardly believe what she was hearing. “You’d do that? You’d


    consider moving to Nashville. For me?”


    He shrugged as if it weren’t that big of a deal. “Sure. I mean, I was already thinking I might have to


    move to New York or Paris. I’d much rather move to Nashville. It’s not Kentucky, but it’s close. My


    parents will be thrilled.”


    Once again, Bree couldn’t help but lean up and kiss him. “You’re amazing. Yes, of course, I’d love for


    you toe with me. Some of my gigs are out of town, though.”


    “That’s cool. I can either go with you or hang out in Nashville and wait for you. Whichever you want.”


    Bree’s smile widened, and she ran her hand through his hair. “God, you’re amazing. I can’t believe


    you’re actually willing to give up everything you’ve worked so hard for just to be with me.”


    “Bree, you’ve worked so hard to make it to where you’re at right now. Of course, I’m willing to do


    whatever I need to do in order to be with you and help you achieve your dream. Besides, I have a lot of


    money saved. If I can’t open my own firm, I should be able to find a job somewhere else eventually. If


    not, I’ve got enough to fall back on for a while.”


    “It would be so cool if you moved to Nashville, Trent. I just love it there. Even though I may have to


    travel some, and eventually, I might even do a tour, I think Nashville will always be my home.”


    “Sounds like a great ce to start a family to me,” he replied. He realized what he’d said and his eyes


    erged. “I mean… you know, if a person intended to start a family….”


    Grinning mischievously at him, Bree asked, “And… do you want to start a family?”


    Trent shrugged. “Well, yeah, maybe. Someday. Probably.”


    Laughing, she pushed him over and climbed on top of him so that her arms had his pinned. “Don’t you


    think you’re getting ahead of yourself a little bit there, Mr. Walker?”


    “I don’t know. Maybe,” he said, smiling up at her. “I guess, when I know what I want, I take it… ten or


    fifteen yearster.”


    Bree couldn’t hold herughter back. She leaned down and kissed him, letting his arms go, and he


    wrapped them around her, pulling her close as she swung her leg over his hips so that she was


    straddling him. The idea of starting a family with Trent was enough to make her feel all warm inside. He


    would be an excellent father, she just knew it. And making the babies was sure to be more fun than she


    had ever even let herself imagine.
