Zack closed his eyes and took a deep breath as he felt Andrea’s fingers tracing each of the tattoos on his back, and every hair on his body stood up when those fingers were replaced by her mouth. “You want me to skip work today, don’t you?” he murmured and turned around to catch her in his arms. He lifted her up to the kitchen counter and got between her legs with a possessive gesture. “Well, your boss is going to skip office hours for today, and she’s giving you the day off to do whatever you want,” Andrea said against his mouth. “In that case, I think there’s something very special I want to do with my boss,” he smiled. Having an “exciting” breakfast was just the first part of that day. Then Zack asked her to put on some warm clothes after leaving the baby with her grandparents, who were already too indulgent, and he took her to one of his favorite places in the city. “Don’t look down, don’t look down!” —Andrea murmured as they went up in the cable car and she clung to Zack’s arm like a lizard. —You know what, love? If you’re scared you can get on here — he told her taking her by the hips and sitting her astride him. —Oh God, you’re crazy! There’s no s@x at heights, I refuse… I’m getting dizzy… Zack laughed amused and hugged her, making her close her eyes so she wouldn’t see how much they were going up. They reached the top of the mountain and there Andrea almost hugged a tree. —Don’t even think I’m going to come down from here! —Andrea exclaimed but instead of skis Zack showed her a nice snowmobile. Thanks for reading at LeeNovelas.com. —Relax, just get on behind me, hold on tight and we’ll have a nice ride up the mountain — he said giving her a soft kiss. Andrea nodded, trusting him as she got on the bike and hugged Zack. The movement of the bike brought them even closer and Zack laughed because he looked like a little koala. The mountain was beautiful, covered in immaculate white and some strong trees with their black branches waving from the bottom. She lost track of time as Zack drove the bike through the snow-covered trees. Suddenly he stopped next to a small lake and Andrea was surprised. “Wow! No wonder you like coming here so much,” she murmured. “I learned to skate here,” he told her. And maybe skiing isn’t your thing, but I bet you know how to skate. He took out some inline skates from his backpack, exactly Andrea’s size, and put them on while she melted just looking at him. Remember. Read this novel only at LeeNovelas.com, not on other sites. “Come on, come on,” he said, taking her hand and making her sit on the edge of the ice. He skated skillfully so Andrea had to struggle to keep up with him as they began to circle around the lake. They stayed there all afternoon having a lot of fun even though they fell several times, but what they enjoyed most was spending time together. Then they headed to a small hill where Zack had prepared a special picnic.They watched the sunset from the lake, where the pink light of the sun tinted the horizon and it was finally time to go home. “I think I’ll participate in the next games again,” he said suddenly and Andrea looked at him excitedly. “Are you going to compete again?” she asked. “Well… I could. I mean, I’m still in shape, I’m not an old man. And I didn’t have the chance to show off that part of my life to you, so why not do it now?” Andrea bit her lip in fascination because she couldn’t imagine anything more tender than the fact that he wanted to show off a title of champion of the winter games. But if that was what he wanted, she would climb that mountain every day to watch him train, even if she was scared to death on the way up and down. “That sounds excellent to me,” she said, throwing her arms around his neck. “But it seems to me, Mr. Keller, that in that case you will need a representative, and it turns out that I kindly offer myself to you.” “Wow, you’re so fast!” I taught you well! But I’ll have to see how much you offer me, Miss Brand… The flirtation lasted beyond the decision or everything that followed. The truth was that whatever they did, it didn’t matter to them as long as they were together. Finally Zack gave up his reinstatement forever and preferred to make Adriana the next world champion. Andrea almost fainted from love with those mini skis, and she was sure that as soon as the baby took the first step, he would immediately launch himself with her down the mountain. Life was good, life was beautiful and for several months they were finally able to fit in just as they needed to. Dates became courtship, living together made them a stronger couple, until one day Zack’s shout got Andrea out of bed. —Cupcake! Run! Run or you’ll miss it! Andrea almost flew over the banister of the stairs, just getting up and with her hair disheveled, and when she got to the bottom Zack was teary-eyed as he watched Adriana balance on her little feet but without holding on to anything. “Come to daddy, my love… come to daddy!” she asked and Andrea saw her beautiful giant sniffle like a baby when Adriana began to walk towards him until she threw herself into his arms. You can walk now, my love, you can walk now! Zack picked her up in his arms and then went to Andrea, to give her hundreds of kisses while the pride that his little girl could already walk oozed out of his pores. “Well… I think this is the decisive moment,” he told Andrea a couple of days later. “Why do you say that, love?” Andrea asked, surprised. “Because Loan called. He’s coming back and the whole family is going to get together,” Zack murmured. “So if you’ll allow me… I’d like to go ask for your hand.” Andrea was speechless for a moment.“I think I’m going to compete in the next games again,” he said suddenly, and Andrea looked at him excitedly. “Are you going to compete again?” she asked. “Well… I could.

Andrea was speechless for a moment. —Zack, we’re in the twenty-first century, nobody does that anymore… — she laughed but he was very serious —. Wait, aren’t you kidding? —No, Andrea — Zack said with an emotion she hadn’t seen before. This time he was serious. The other times we were pressured, but now it’s different. I love you and I want to marry you… so I want to formally ask for your hand… in this case to the closest adult responsible for you. Andrea felt her heart stop. —Are you really going to ask your father for my hand? — she murmured stunned. —Yes, yes I will. Andrea couldn’t help the tears that ran down her cheeks when she saw such sincere words come out of Zack’s lips. She wanted to see that dream come true for a long time and now they were finally ready. That weekend the entire family finally got together and Zack felt himself shaking as he sat next to his father at the end of dinner. Everyone waited expectantly around the table because Andrea had more or less warned them what would happen. “Dad, there is something important I would like to talk to you about,” Zack began and everyone fell silent to the point that a fly could be heard flying. “Sure, son, you say.” “Well…” Zack took a deep breath. “I would like to officially ask for Andrea’s hand.” Mr. Nikola didn’t even take long to respond. “No way, keep using yours.” The twins spat out their wine and the rest coughed between laughter and surprise. “Dad, this is serious, I want to marry Andrea, I want to spend the rest of my life with her and I’m all nervous. Can you give me your blessing and then! You laugh at me?” Zack scolded him. His father put a hand on his shoulder and looked at Andrea and his granddaughter. “Of course I give you my blessing, son.” I think everyone in this house has been waiting for you two to finally take this step and we are more than happy that you two are joining together forever,” she said with a smile. “But the one who has to tell you yes is her.” She pointed at Andrea and leaned in to speak very quietly, just for Zack. “So make sure this is the best marriage proposal of your life, because it is the last one you will make.”
