“i love you, beau,” she steals a gentle kiss from his lips, letting herself soak in his warmth and the way he held her.
another kiss, this time to his nose, unable to stop herself from pressing a few more all over his face.
" i love you "
life truly got brighter when nora and viola entered it , when gio finally had a mom again , when beau got to spread the love he housed in his every action . hes happy to give it to his little family every day
at times she didn’t feel like she deserved a life like this . . so full of bliss. nora can’t help but swoon, drawing him in even closer.
“you are everything to us both. you and gio just came into our lives and picked up all the pieces. i can’t thank you enough for that.”
he leans into her palm , eyes growing softer as she speaks , his girl
" theres nothing i wouldnt do for you two , vi deserves to have a dad that does that for her . its my privilege to give her that "
she gazes up at him, brushing her thumb over his jaw, her heart swells in her chest, the smile growing wider.
“i didn’t ever think vi would have another person in her life that could give her the love she deserves — until you.”
" i was already planning it ! she made me pinky promise ! "
his own laughter melts with hers , grinning down at her while he moves to get comfortable
" you know id do anything for her in a heartbeat "
a smile spreads out across her features. “she pulled out the big guns, huh?” nora laughs, sighing softly.
“i think after gio and i had our day, i think she was set on having one with you, love.”
he chuckled , rubbing her back as she curled closer
" vi went down alright , had to promise her my next day off was a me and her day . g knocked out before his head even hit the pillow "
there’s a content hum as she burrows her face into the crook of his neck, wrapping her arms around him that much tighter.
“i know it’s been like ten minutes since i saw you but i missed you. so much. how was bedtime? did they settle down okay?”
