Je t'aime

Lucien had always thought partner was an unusual word, being that it could mean business or pleasure, his business partner versus his romantic partner. In some ways he suspected he might prefer boyfriend, but it wasn't something he thought warranted a talk. When she talked about an engagement ring it Lucien raised an amused eyebrow, the topic didn't scare him, but he was a tad surprised that Maeve was already going there. As she places her arms around his neck, he pulls her in closer.

That is quite the list, you sound like someone who has put great thought into this. Should I be writing all this down? He was mostly kidding with just a dash of seriousness. Even though he hadn't thought about marriage, he knew one thing with certainty, that she was the one for him, it all ended with her.
