Stone - Big Girls & Bad Boys (20 page)

“Speaking of your vessel. It floats, right?” I asked.

“All the way to San Juan for a taste of home when you’re ready. For starters anyway,” he replied.

“Can we stick around here a while?” I asked.

“For you, Erin, anything. As long as I’m with you, it doesn’t matter where we are,” he told me. I knew he meant it. The fact that I actually came back proved to him I was serious too.

“Oh, I like that. You’ve got plenty of beer and that other stuff, right?” I asked.

“As much as you want and on the boat, you don’t even have to wear a bikini,” he replied. That, along with everything else, made me sure I’d done the right thing. Today is all we really had. If, or maybe when, I ran out of money, I guess I’d figure out a way to survive. But that was the future and it wasn’t guaranteed in any case. Today, I was happy and with the man I was sure, given a bit of time, I’d fall in love with. Maybe it wouldn’t work out but it was worth a try. If we both wanted it to, it would. I knew I wanted it to work out and I think Rick did too.

Again, that was the future. Today, I loved him and he loved me. Right now was all that really mattered and right now was pretty special. All I had to do was make sure the next moment was at least as good as the last and I’d be fine. All I had to do was just let go and let the winds of fortune take me where they might. As long as I kept that in mind, happiness would always be with me.
