Bryce hummed as he sprinkled lavender oil into the warm bath. He’d already lit some candles and placed them around the bathroom, lighting it in a soft, yellow glow. A speaker sat in one corner, playing slow, gentle music.

When he finished, he stepped back and observed what he’d done. It looked nice, peaceful. Hopefully, it would calm Joy. Maybe lift her spirits a little.

“Joy, love? I’m finished if you want to come in,” he called, sticking his head into the bedroom.

Joy poked her head inside, immediately feeling the warm glow of the candles. Her face softened and she walked over to Bryce, standing on the tip of her toes to give him a kiss.

“Thank you, my Wolf,” she whispered, seeing the sight making her feel better already. “You’re going to join me, right?”

Joy was truly blessed to have someone like Bryce. This wasn’t a little thing this time, though. He did everything that he knew would cheer her up. It’s like Bryce knew exactly what he needed to do. Joy was thankful beyond words.

Bryce smiled softly and kissed her back. “If you want me to, then I gladly would. Is that what you want, then?”

Joy nodded almost immediately—too eagerly.

“Yes,” she said, her hands fisting his shirt. “Join me, please.”

“Of course, love. Let’s go get in now, then. Don’t want the water to get cold, right?” Bryce said as he stepped into the bathroom and closed the door behind them.

(Skip? Not it!)

Joy felt refreshed after their bath. They were now in bed, with her head on Bryce’s shoulder, his arm around her waist and their tangled together.

“It was a long day,” Joy murmured.

Bryce hummed his agreement and kissed her cheek gently. “It was, yes. I’m glad to have some down time, now… How are you feeling, love?”

Joy took a deep breath, her eyes closed.

“I expected my mother to react like that, but not my father…” she murmured. “I’m glad you’re here with me. I’m glad your parents approved…”

“I know, sweetheart… But everything will turn out okay. All right? Everything will be just fine,” Bryce assured her in a gentle murmur as he rolled into his side and pulled her into his chest. He pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head before running his fingers through her hair. “Do you want to go shopping tomorrow? I’ve got the day off of work.”

Joy thought for a moment before nodding. She liked shopping, more so if Bryce was with her.

“I’d like that…” she murmured, her fingers reaching up to trace his lips. “Can you… can you kiss me?”

Bryce smiled and lifted her hand to his lips, kissing it gently. “There. I kissed you,” he teased with a wink. Of course, he knew that wasn’t what she meant, but it was fun to tease her sometimes.

Joy pouted, smacking him on his chest.

“You know what I meant, Bryce,” she pouted, looking up at him. “But now I don’t want it.”

“Aw, are you sure? I would gladly give it if you change your mind,” Bryce said with a playful grin. “C’mon, babe…”

No, you jerk,” Joy grumbled, hiding her face in his chest. “You has your chance but you gave it away!”

Bryce kissed the top of her head and tightened his arms around her. "Well, darn… I'll just have to wait until you're asleep to sneak one, then."

Joy frowned.

“Where’s the fun in that?” she grumbled. “I won’t even be able to kiss you back.”

"You would if I kissed you right now, though," Bryce said with a shrug. "Up to you, though."

Joy raised an eyebrow.

“I told you to kiss me before,” she insisted. “You didn’t listen. You want me to say ‘please’ again?”

Bryce raised an eyebrow right back at her, smirking a little. "Does that mean you've changed your mind? Because you were just saying that I couldn't kiss you now."

Joy turned red, shaking her head.

”No,” she said sharply. “If you want it now, you’re going to get it yourself.”

"Babe… All I need is a 'yes' or a 'no'. I don't want to kiss you if you don't want me to," Bryce said, his expression growing serious.

Joy sighed.

“You know it’s a ‘yes’, Bryce,” she murmured. “There’s never going to be a ‘no’.”

Bryce smiled a little before gently connecting their lips. “Good,” he murmured against her. “I hope there’s never a time when it’s a no.”

Joy wrapped her arms around him tightly, kissing him back, waves of relief crashing through her. His kisses always seemed to make her weak. Thankfully they were on bed—Joy knew she would have collapsed otherwise.
