Sensing Rose’s amusement, Morrison felt a wave of relief wash over him. But

the harder she laughed, the more flustered he became.

As she showed no signs of stopping, Morrison gritted his teeth, his face flushing

as he moved closer, and in one swift motion, he scooped Rose up and pinned

her down on the bed, amidst the soft bedding.

Rose’s expression wavered, making sure Morrison hadn’t touched her belly. She

paused for a moment, and seeing Morrison’s flushed, awkward face, she

couldn’t help but burst into laughter again.

“You’re still laughing…”

Enter title…

Morrison’s embarrassment was tangible, his voice strained and weighted with

discomfort.

Rose arched an eyebrow, “Would you prefer tears?”d2

Morrison pursed his lips, staring at her for a long while before admitting defeat,

“Then laugh it is.”

Rose couldn’t help but feel that this was a side of Morrison she’d never seen, a

far cry from the man she loved.

But wasn’t it adorable?

Her smile lingered as she quietly observed him. “Whose bright idea was this

anyway?”

Morrison’s brow twitched, “Can’t I come up with this all by myself?”

“Of course not.” Rose said decisively.

“And why not?”

“Because you just wouldn’t. This isn’t like you at all. You wouldn’t even entertain

the thought unless someone suggested it. And even then, your first reaction

would probably have been to dismiss it entirely. Whoever did suggest this

probably got an earful from you.”

Morrison fell silent. “You know me that well?”

Rose hesitated, then turned her face away.

Now it was Rose’s turn to feel the heat as Morrison’s lips curled into a smirk, “If

you know me so well, how come you didn’t realize I was in love with you?”
