he questioned lamely .
giggling , megan nodded her head .
`` i wish you could see your face right now .
i should be insulted . ''
`` i 'm sorry .
it 's just you surprised me . ''
she cupped his face in her hands .
`` i 'm sorry i do n't have a ring , and i did n't get down on one knee , '' she lovingly teased .
he brought his hands up to touch hers .
`` you 're really serious ? ''
`` yes , i am . ''
bowing his head , he tenderly kissed the tops of her hands .
`` i love you so much , megan , and i want nothing more than to make you my wife . ''
`` so is that a yes ? ''
`` i just want to make sure you know what you 're saying .
one minute you 're in the dining room , laughing with your family , and then the next you 're in here weeping and then proposing to me .
and let 's not forget how adamant you have been the entire time i 've known you about being too young to get married . ''
megan 's lips turned down in a pout .
`` ca n't a girl change her mind ? ''
`` yes , of course , but i just want to make sure this is really what you want . ''
tears sparkled in her blue eyes .
`` you are everything i could ever want in a man .
you love me , you watch out for me , you want the best for me .
while that would be enough to make me want to marry you , you love my son .
you watch out for him and you want the best for him .
i could n't ever imagine loving someone more than i do you .
i ca n't imagine wanting to be anyone else 's wife but you . ''
she sniffled .
`` i was so stupid for so long .
i could n't believe that someone like me could truly deserve someone like you .
but you never gave up on me .
if you give me the chance , i 'll spend the rest of my life trying to make you happy . ''
pesh could n't stop the racing of his heart .
he was sure both his heart rate and blood pressure were off the charts at this moment .
he cupped her cheeks .
`` nothing in the world would make me happier than for us to get married . ''
`` so we 're engaged ? ''
`` yes , we are . ''
when a smile lit up megan 's face , he shook his head .
`` but not formally yet .
not until i put a diamond on your hand . ''
`` but i do n't need that to know i 'm promised to you and that we 're getting married . ''
`` maybe you do n't , but i do . ''
she rolled her eyes .
`` fine , fine .
i 'll let you buy me a diamond .
a great big one , okay ? ''
he laughed .
`` i promise to spend a fortune . ''
`` you know i would be happy to wear your ring even if it was a little chip . ''
`` i know you would .
but i want to spoil my beautiful future wife . ''
she grinned .
`` okay , i wo n't argue with you . ''
pesh brought his mouth to hers .
as their lips moved against each other , he could n't believe how lucky he was .
megan was his-she was really going to be his for the rest of his life .
when she flicked her tongue against his , he groaned into her mouth .
considering they were at patrick 's with all of her family down the hall , he knew the last thing on his mind should 've been flipping her over onto her back and pounding into her .
but he did n't care .
he wanted inside her body .
he had finally made it into her heart , mind , and soul , and he once again wanted to be inside her perfection .
when megan pushed him onto his back , pesh raised his brows at her .
`` mmm , i think my future wife is getting ahead of herself .
usually the consummating comes after the wedding , not the engagement , '' he teased .
`` i think we 've consummated enough over the last few months where it does n't matter . ''
`` i suppose you 're right . ''
as she ground her core against his growing erection , she said , `` looks like i 'm not the only one with consummating on the mind . ''
`` you should know that has a mind of its own . ''
she grinned down at him .
`` well , right now i think we 're both of the same mind . ''
as she continued to grind against him , his hands swept to her br**sts .
he cupped and kneaded the flesh over her top .
at the sound of the door opening , pesh tried to pull away , but he did n't make it in time .
`` oh f**king hell ! ''
aidan 's voice boomed from the doorway .
megan quickly scrambled off pesh , and they both rose up , trying to straighten their clothes and hair .
with a pained expression , aidan said , `` seriously ?
this is my old bedroom ! ''
pesh chuckled .
`` i 'm sorry , but you of all people should understand that when the mood hits , you act on it . ''
megan smacked his arm playfully .
`` that is not exactly what happened . ''
holding up one of his hands , aidan said , `` frankly , i do n't really want to know what happened .
i just came back here to make sure megan was all right .
next time , i 'll make sure someone else comes , so i do n't need eye bleach to wipe that out of my memory. ``
`` ha , ha , very funny , '' megan grumbled , as she got off the bed .
`` we were only celebrating , '' pesh said .
aidan pinched his eyes shut .
`` i do n't think i even want to know what you were celebrating . ''
`` our engagement , pervert , '' megan replied .
aidan 's blue eyes widened .
`` holy shit , you two are engaged ? ''
pesh smiled as he rose off the bed and took megan 's hand .
`` yes , we are .
well , i mean , i need to go to her father and properly ask for her hand .
and there 's the fact she does n't have a ring . ''
shaking his head in disbelief , aidan said , `` that 's ... wow .
i 'm so happy for you two . ''
`` thank you .
