Jackson hurried to where he boiled water when he recall he was about to make a warm cup of milk for her when she arrived in the kitchen.

Jackson made a cup of warm milk for her while he made a cup of coffee for himself. They went back to the sitting room and sat cuddling each other. Even after they finished their cup of coffee and milk they continued staying that way.

The two of them went to her room upstairs when they realised it was night already.

“Miss Naughty, how was your grandma like when she was alive? According to the little you told me about her, I guess you both were very close right?” Jackson sitting on the bed with Jasmine sitting in between his parted legs with his hands wrapped around her body asked.

“She was stern but very beautiful. She was raised with parents with a military background which is why she was very fierce. Although my father is fiercer he dares not go against what his mum tells him. And this is the main reason why I always go scot-free each time I go against my father’s wishes,” Jasmine said smiling when she recalls the good old days.

As a child, she was always mysterious, her plan to help her sister remain the apple of her parents’ eyes always puts her in trouble with her parents.

Knowing how her husband temper is her mum always send her to her grandma’s place each time she gets into trouble. This has always been her mum’s strategy to protect her as far as she can recall.

“Since I was a child she has always doted on me. Out of all her grandchildren, I was the closest to her and I guess this was because I took after her the most…,”

“Merely hearing you talk about her I can already imagine how she was. If you said you resemble her the most then I guess she must have been cheerful and also loving just like you,” Jackson said as his grip around her body tightened.

“I wish instead of that jerk Nicholas, you were the one I met back then. You would have seen just how well my grandma treats me. She was the one who taught me to pay little or no attention to what others said. She also taught me to love myself,” Jasmine said her once happy expression falling when she recall her pale grandma’s face when she was hospitalised back then.

“If that was the case then this year would have been our sixth marriage anniversary. How amazing that would have been,” Jackson said as he kissed her neckline.

“That is what you think about….,”

“How could I not think about that when it is my greatest wish to get married to you?” Jackson asked as he continued giving soft kisses to her bare neckline.

“The thing which that douchebag threw away in a whim is what I desperately want? I want you to give me the right to be your husband. Your one and only man, won’t you grant this wish of mine Jasmine?” Jackson whispered flirtatiously into her ears. The feeling of his warm tongue against her earlobes made Jasmine grab the bedsheets.

“I will think about it…,”

“Think about it?” Jackson asked instantly stopping what he was doing.

“Isn’t the three months trial period you gave me already over so why do you still need some more time to think?” Jackson asked as he lets her turn around so that she was facing him.

“Are you still reluctant to marry me? You can tell me if you don’t love me enough. If you are sceptical about how much I love you because you think I will repeat the same mistake that scumbag made…,”

“I trust you and I know that you love me a whole lot. I know that the three months trial period has past but you don’t expect me to give you a reply this way right?” Jasmine asked while staring into his eyes.

“What does that mean…,” Jackson paused what he wanted to say when he understood the underlying meaning behind her words.

She wasn’t rejecting him but she wanted him to hold a proper engagement event.

“I have got that. I will get things prepared for that,” Jackson said beaming. The thought that Jasmine was finally willing to marry him made him unable to stop smiling.

“It’s good that you understood that,” Jasmine could not resist smiling when she saw his beautiful smile.

“I love you and your reply has made this year worthwhile….,”

“What does that mean?” Jasmine asked not understanding what his words meant.

“Despite all the achievements I have made this year, the year would have been incomplete without your reply. Compared to all the achievements, what I looked forward to having for over a year now has been to be your husband….,”

“It hasn’t been a year since we met so what do you mean by you have wanted to be my husband for over a year now? This is not the first time you have said this so do you care explaining…,” Jackson kissed her before she could say any more words.

This is not the right moment to tell you that I have been in love with you for over a year. When the time is right, I will reveal everything to you.

Jackson thought as he pulled her closer so that there was no space between the two of them. While kissing they both subconsciously pulled off each other’s clothes.

Jackson kissed her until she pulled away due to loss of breath.

“I have missed how it feels to touch and kiss you. I have missed the feeling of your warm body against mine…,” Jackson breathing heavily said, his passionate gaze centred on her flushed face.

“Mrs Jackson Smith, will you do me the honour of making love to you?” Jackson asked as he winked naughtily at the lady who had just burst out laughing.

“Why are you asking me for that? You are so silly,” Jasmine said as she hits his chest gently.
