Two rents. Two sets of bills. What if we just… lived together?” Her pen stilled on the page. “Lived together?” Damon leaned forward, his voice low but steady. “Think about it. We’d save money. We’d split the bills. And honestly, Sienna there’s nothing I’d rather do than start and end my days with you right there beside me.”

“Do you have to go? Hmm?” Damien asked as he watched Harriet pack her clothes. Addison and Adrian were already downstairs with their grandparents and were already packed. “I can’t stay here forever, you know? We aren’t married anymore. It’ll be odd for me to live here.” She chuckled without looking at him, but she could feel his domineering presence behind her, the sweet smell of his perfume gracing her nostrils. “Why would it be? We were once married, Harriett. It won’t be odd for us to live together. So many couples live together without being married these days.” Damien replied and moved closer to her, turning her around so she could look at him.

When he reached the door when he was about to leave, he said, “What I’m saying is, you need to look for other options to do those things such as…living together.” Ethan cupped his mouth when he gasped. Yohan left with him laughing. He knew Yohan was teasing him, and now he was left with Chad. Living together seems to work only for couples who have been long enough and have known each other enough. Thinking about it, he doesn’t think their relationship is on that level. Chad walked towards him. “I know what you are thinking, that it’s still too early for that. But, I am willing to try.”

"Wedding next summer. Small ceremony. Just close friends and family. He wants us there." "Of course we'll be there." "Lee and Marcus are talking about moving in together. Making it official." "Everyone's building lives. That's good." "What about us? Are we building a life or just surviving day to day?" "Both. We're building while surviving. That's what life is." "Is this what you imagined? When you bonded with me? This life?" I thought about it. "No. I imagined protecting you until the immediate danger passed. Then figuring out the rest. Didn't imagine advocacy work. I didn't imagine living in an apartment living. Didn't imagine any of this specifically."

Going to fancy events sounds kind of fun. “And you are probably going to have to move in with me,” he says before clicking his tongue. “What?! No way!” I reply folding my arms across my chest. Pretending to be a couple is one thing, but living together is too much. “Emma, we are supposed to be engaged... it’s going to look weird if we don’t live together. Just for appearances, we don’t have to sleep in the same bedroom, my apartment is very big if you recall,” he says.

he continues, "so did the media. And in their eyes, this is a real marriage. If you don't t turn up for the wedding with me, it'll look suspicious." Someone punch me. Right now. I squeeze my eyes shut, expecting more bad news. He seems to be on a roll today. "What else is there, Levi? You might as well get it all out." "We have to live together for the duration of the contract." Jesus Christ. I had thought the six-month contract being stretched to a year was bad enough. But this? This isn't an inconvenience anymore. It is just pure torture.

A good hour was spent doing all these before Grant and his father returned to the lounge. "I enjoyed coming home after about two months of being away. Muna and I have to get going now." "Do you both live together?" I appreciate that you're in a relationship and love each other so much, but don't you think living together before getting married is a bit too much?" Olivia queried with a frown. "We live in the same building, but in separate rooms. Grant and I have decided to get married before sharing a room together. I hope us living together doesn't go against your standards, Mum and Dad?" I asked with a sweet smile.

"This is practical. You need safety. I have the space and security to provide it. That's all this is." But it wasn't all it was. Living together, even in separate rooms, would change our relationship dynamics. We'd see each other's domestic habits, morning routines, late night patterns. All the small intimacies that build or break relationships. "What if this doesn't work?" I asked. "What if living together proves we're not compatible?" "Then we'll know. Better to find out now than after the baby arrives and we're trapped in a situation that doesn't work." He was right. This was a trial run for cohabitation, for figuring out if

But looking at it now, it didn't feel like the most important thing she had built. This was. This messy, loud, imperfect family. Liam came into the kitchen, breathless and laughing.
