Chapter Twenty-Two

"I can't believe the season's already over. It feels like it just started a month ago." I said as Jamie and I finished packing up everything that we would want to take home with us over the summer.

"Hey don't be making fun of my team for not making the playoffs." Jamie said.

"I wasn't making fun of you guys at all!" I exclaimed. He likes to pull that card to make me feel bad whenever he can, he finds it hilarious, which only makes me smile since he's happy.

"I know, baby, I know." He said, walking over to me and wrapping his arms around my waist from behind. 

"Jerk." I mumbled. 

"What did you just say?" He asked, his voice getting more amused. 

"Nothing at all." I shrugged, a sly smile playing on my lips. He turned me around in his arms to face him and started peppering kisses all over my face. 

"Ready to go home, baby?" Jamie asked. I nodded and rested my head against his chest. We grabbed everything out of the room and brought it downstairs, Trevor said he'd drive us to the airport so he helped bring everything out to his car. 

"Have a good flight, have fun at home guys." Trevor said as we got out of the car. Jamie and I both gave him a hug.

"Thanks, bud, have fun back home." Jamie said.

"No surprises this year, okay?" I asked him.

"I've got nothing up my sleeve this year, Sky, don't worry." Trevor said as I wrapped him in a hug. We said our goodbyes and entered into the airport, ready for a stressful day getting through everything. It was always a pain in the ass at both airports. We eventually got onto the plane and took the four and a half hour flight back to Toronto, just taking an Uber back to Jamie's parents house. 

"Welcome home, guys." Tina greeted as we got into the house.

"Hi mom." Jamie said, giving her a tight hug.

"Hi Tina, how are you?" I asked her.

"I'm good, thank you, how are you guys?" She asked as I came to her for a hug too. 

"We're good, ready for the off-season." Jamie responded as he started bringing out bags up the stairs. 

"How's engaged life?" Gary asked as he came into the room. I brought my hand up and wiggled my fingers.

"It's great, we've done a big of wedding planning. I think we're touring I think 5 or 6 places in the next couple weeks. Hopefully have somewhere booked and have a date pretty soon." I responded. 

"Oh nice which places are you looking at?" Tina asked.

"The Old Mill Toronto, The Guild Inn Estate, Deer Creek Golf, Cambium Farms, Bellamere Winery and there's one more that I can't remember." Jamie said as he came back into the room. 

"I think it was Millennium Gardens." I added. 

"I think by the pictures we liked the last two the most, right?" Jamie asked, I nodded as he wrapped an arm around my waist. I leaned my head into his chest, wrapping my arm around his back and pulling him into as much of a hug as I could muster. 

"That sounds nice guys." Gary said.

"Yeah, we have to run out, sorry for the quick in and out." Jamie said. 

"We do?" I asked him.

"We do, let's go get changed and head out." He said and grabbed my arm, pulling me upstairs. There was an outfit laying on our bed. 

"Is this for me to put on?" I asked.

"Yeah, as fast as you can, we're going to be late." Jamie responded. I sighed and got changed into the shorts and cute pink blouse on the bed. "Ready?" He asked and I nodded, following him out to the car.
