Never Ending Truths

18. Caught Redhanded

**Two months later**

Life has been great; I can't complain; Indy and I have grown increasingly close to each other. We have had numerous deep conversations about anything we could think of. I've learned so much about him and his life, and I finally understand why he is the way he is. His father didn't really talk to him much after his mother died; he was more obsessed with the Holy Grail. He was more interested in guys who had been dead for 500 years in different countries than in Indiana. I know why Indy doesn't want to marry and have kids so soon. He feels like he will be like his father and fail them. Indy has told me several times he's going to marry me and has it all planned out, but he wants to wait a little longer, preferably after I get a degree. I can't wait for that day to come, just thinking I will be the wife of the famous Dr. Jones. Harley Ann Jones, the wife of Indiana Jones, has a nice ring.

I turned to the right side of the bed, expecting to see Indy, but he wasn't there. "Indy?" I sat up and looked at the clock to see we had an hour before it was time to wake up for school. I searched the house for him, noticing he was in the kitchen. Indy had dirt all over him from head to toe and a box of chocolates in his hands with a sexy smirk on his face. "Why are you all dirty?"

"I was working on your present." He smiles as he comes over to me, leaning down and placing a kiss on my cheek. "Come on." He turns me around and puts his hand over my eyes while he leads me down the hall to the backyard. "Indy, what do you have up your sleeve now?" I chuckle as I follow him blindly. He opened the door and led me onto the porch. He took his large hand off my eyes, letting me adjust to the light. I notice the new addition to our garden, four giant golden sunflowers. "Oh, Indy, it's beautiful!" I jump up and down and hug him, not caring about getting dirty. "Thank you!!"

"You're welcome, doll. I know how much you love sunflowers, so I thought you should have some of your own." He smiled down at me as he brushed my hair back.

"I love them."

"Happy Valentine's Day." He breathed as he leaned down, placing a kiss on my lips.

"Happy Valentine's Day." I smile against his lips. "I got you something as well."

"You can give it to me tonight, oh, and I have a little something planned for tonight as well." He smiles. "I need to shower before school."

"Very well." I sigh, wanting to give him his present. We went inside and got ready for the day as I had a little more pep in my step. I loved my present, and I can't wait to watch them grow and keep up with them. I wonder what he has planned for tonight; I think I'm finally ready to go all the way with him. I love that man, and I know he loves me as well, just by his actions. I finish up and go over to the coffee maker and get our coffee ready. I really hope Indy loves his gift; I put so much thought into it. Indy walks out in his three-piece suit, round glasses, and wet hair brushed to the side. "I love feeling how happy you are." He came behind me and wrapped his arms around me as he rested his chin on my shoulder. "You make me happy." I smile as I put the lid on his coffee.

"And you make me happy." He kissed my cheek and pulled back. We walk out of the house together and take our separate cars to the school. I park my car in my spot and skip to class seeing Danielle sitting up straight with her shoulders back. She has made such progress with her confidence and is very outspoken now. I'm so proud of her, and she has become a great friend to me. Indy is thrilled I finally made a friend but has warned me not to tell her about us. I have taken Danielle shooting and taught her to ride a horse, and she found a new passion for riding. Madrina is also thrilled I'm friends with Danielle. She moved her next to me. "Good morning." She smiles at me.

"Good morning." I greet her.

"So I heard they will be delivering roses today." She giggles. I know all about this; they are selling roses to raise money for a formal. You buy a rose for someone, and you can attach a card to it as well. I bought her, Indy, and Madrina a rose and attached a note to them as well. I already told Madrina I bought Indy a rose, and I am sending it to her so no one would get suspicious. She loved the idea and said she would deliver it to him personally and give me all the details.
