When you gave your ex the ultimatum, you never imagined you'd end up feeling like this and lord knows Amare didn't either. Both of you had given your partners the speech, you'd shown up with a guy that didn't deserve you and Amare was showing you how true that was.

He'd come here with a woman so different from him in every aspect, it was like night and day. Walking into the experience you were both convinced your partners were the ones and then... well, all of it happened. You smiled at him and he smiled at you.

One date turned to two, then three and sure enough you picked each other to be your first experience at a trial marriage. Your ex doesn't give you what you need, you're better of in Amare's arms like this, he's sure of it. You've connected on levels he didn't know possible. He's been doing things to make you happy you never knew you needed.

"What we watchin', sweet thing?" He asks as he pulls you closer. It's only been a week, but lord knows he's already getting used to cuddling on the couch with you. If it weren't for the cameras all around, he would've already forgotten your exes even exist. At the end of this experience, Amare thinks he'll walk down the aisle with you, not her.

The kiss he presses to your forehead comes almost as second nature to him, like you're meant to be there. "Nother one o'your cheesy romcoms?" Even teasing you feels natural. Why, oh why, haven't you walked into his life sooner?
