Expressions of Love (Jeff&Candice)

He pulled away and gazed lovingly at her. "I better get started on the mac and cheese so we don't starve." he said chuckling.

"I have a feeling we're going to need the energy." She smiled.

He smirked. "When do we not need the energy?"

Candice laughed. "Well, I'm addicted to you."

"And I'm seriously addicted to you." he said smiling as he started getting the cheese ready.

Candice hopped back onto the counter. "So I've been doing some thinking and let me know if I'm over stepping my bounds, but I had an idea."

"Unless it's matching tattoos, I'm all for it. Because as much as I love you and I love inking myself...that's the one thing I do not do." he said chuckling.

"What's your idea, beautiful?"

Candice laughed. "No, it's not matching tattoos. I was thinking, since I spend most of my time here anyway, that I could put my place on the market, if you're into it."

He thought about it for a moment. "You mean...you move in with me?" he asked, trying not to smile too widely.

"No I was going to live in a box on the street." She laughed. "Yes move in with you, if you want me too, that is."

"I'd love it!" he exclaimed before catching himself and calming down a little.

"I mean...that sounds great." he said more calmly, but his grin was from ear to ear, his dimples deep.

"Really?" Her answering smile mirrored his. "You're okay with it?"

"Of course I'd be okay with it...why wouldn't I be?" he asked chuckling as he went over to the counter where she was sitting and kissed her.

"I didn't know if you'd want to share all of your privacy with me just yet." She smiled into the kiss, wrapping her arms around his shoulders.

"What other things is there left to keep private from you? Considering just about how much we've made love already....now we can really christen the rest of the house." he said winking.

Candice laughed, hugging him tightly. "Okay. Then I'll put it on the market tomorrow."

"Awesome...I really like this idea of yours." he said smiling, kissing her again.

"Well I'm really glad you think so." She kissed him back. "This being your house and all."

"don't you mean...our house now?" he asked smiling against her lips.

Candice smiled. "Our house." She repeated. "I like the sound of that." She said before kissing him again.

He kissed her back as he started to boil some water for the pasta. "At this rate, we will go hungry." he said chuckling as he started to cut some cheese.

She laughed. "We can't have that. I'm hungry." She whined.

"And maybe since you're going to be living here, the kitchen will finally be organized." he said laughing.

She giggled. "It'll be the first thing on my to-do list."

"See? I have my own motives for wanting you to live here." he teased.
