Edward!
She had something very important to tell Edward. Graciela could have told him at home, in the warmth of his arms, but she had decided that maybe it was time for a little fun, and she made sure she was dressed up and looking her prettiest. She knew that Edward would not care if she were wearing a potato sack, but sometimes a girl liked to look nice, and she liked to tease her boyfriend.

Boyfriend, her boyfriend. The word did not seem to encompass how she really felt about Edward. She wanted to spend the rest of her life with this man, she wanted to have children with him, she wanted to have his babies. That was more than a boyfriend, but she was too nervous about ruining all the beautiful things they had together to make a move for the next step. She had promised herself that she would not jump into things like she had with Alex, but it was getting harder and harder not to admit her ache for more children, and for her last name to be changed to Pennifold.

Maybe, maybe, her surprise would make things more obvious to Edward. He was a very logical man, and maybe it was straight to the point that he would understand that she was ready to take this next step. Graciela knew he was in a strange situation; she had been married before, she had a child, but she wanted him to know that she'd never really felt like this for anyone, that---

"You look very handsome," she said, interrupting her own thoughts as they danced. Graciela smiled and pushed up on her toes to kiss Edward fully.
