He bit his bottom lip indecisively, maybe worrying that we were moving too fast. “What would we do with Cosi? Take her with us?”
I shook my head. “No, Louisa at the Barking Lot will look after her. She’s Cosi’s biggest fan.”
“I’d have to contact my landlord.” He tunneled a hand through his hair. “And I’d need to get a PO box here before we go so I can have my mail forwarded. I’m not sure—”
“Breathe, baby. There’s plenty of time for everything. As soon as we get home tonight, we can make a to-do list and go through it point by point, okay?”
BJ froze, his eyes locked on mine. “A list.”
“Uh… yeah?” I shrugged, a little embarrassed. “Why? Is that weird? I make myself a to-do list almost every day. You know, to remind myself to call my mom, and practice my yoga, and buy ski wax, and take deep breaths, and get dog food, and— Are you okay? Why are you looking at me like that?”
BJ shook his head and pressed his lips together tightly. He seemed to be fighting laughter, but his eyes were shining with a softer emotion, and I could read my future there, clear as day.

“I guess, uh…” I licked my lips, chasing the taste of him. “I guess you really like lists, huh?”
“I love them,” he said fervently. “Love them. Lists change lives.”
“Uh. Okay.” I frowned. “I feel like there’s a story there.”
“Oh, there is. It’s a great one. You’re gonna laugh. You might cry. But there’s gonna be a very happy ending,” BJ promised. “And I’ll tell you all about it in five days, ’cause it’s gonna be a long-ass drive to Jackson to get my stuff.”
“Wait, you’re gonna do it?” I grinned, ecstatic that he was ready to take the leap. “This week? You sure?”
“We’re gonna do it,” he confirmed, suddenly radiating confidence. “And Dallas… I am absolutely positive. Because some things are just meant to be.”
