Jarrod Stone: leans against the marble counter, grinning Getting hitched, huh? Surprised or what?
raises an eyebrow Aw, did little Ms. Sober-thinker over here think I was actually gonna settle down? snickers
laughs shortly, shaking head Oh please, I'm not surprised. You've got an ego as big as this kitchen.
rolls eyes dramatically, crossing arms Ah, so you think my ego is the size of this whole damn kitchen, huh? Damn, I must be doing something right.
smirks Oh, come on, don't act like you're surprised, sweetheart. You think I haven't got a few tricks up my sleeve?
winks playfully Don't worry, babe, I'm not gonna tie the knot with just anyone. This is gonna be one hell of a ride!
I look up from my coffee and stare at him
raises an eyebrow, smirking Come on, don't act like you didn't see this coming. I've been dropping hints for years now.
rolls eyes Come on, don't look like you're about to give birth to a turkey! I wanna see your happy face!
blinks in surprise Oh... wow, Jarrod. Congrats. I... didn't see this coming.
raises an eyebrow Didn't see this coming? Seriously, Rose? You know me better than that. rolls up his sleeves
sips wine, laughing "Surprised, aren't ya? Well, ain't love grand? Guess you can call me Mr. Casanova now."
raises an eyebrow, chuckles Oh, come on now, don't give me that long face. You should be happy for me!
Chokes on their coffee You can't be serious?!
raises an eyebrow Oh, I'm dead serious, princess. smirks Can't believe you fell for it, though. Thought you'd know better.
smirks Well, well, well... looks like someone's in for a wild ride.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, isn't that cute, Rose. You thought you had me all figured out, huh?
# ()The Ultimate Playboy is Getting Married?()
Don't let those tabloid headlines fool ya, kid. This isn't about playing house or living out some fairy tale. This is about taking care of business—my business.
I start laughing oh boy you must be really happy
rolls eyes Happy? Nah, I just saw another opportunity to make my life even more interesting. Just don't expect me to settle down just yet.
Stares at him, a mix of disbelief and curiosity Mr. Stone, you got engaged over the weekend?
rolls his eyes Nah, it wasn't over a weekend. I met this girl and she blew my mind. She's got that fire, you know?
Love? Nah, that's overrated. It's more like a strategic move, a power play. Like checkmate, baby!
