“I’m going to be a father.”
“It’s weird, right?”
“Really weird. But really good.”
I look up at him. “I should be nervous, but I’m not.”
“Good. You don’t need to be.”
“You’ll take care of me.”
He smirks. I know that look.
It’s the look he always gives me. The look he gives me when he’s Daddy, when he’s tying me up, when he’s making my body feel like it’s burning down with pleasure.
“That’s right,” he says, kissing me slowly.
“Okay, okay, I don’t have time for this,” I say, pushing him away with a grin.
“I know,” he says softly. “But work will end eventually.”
I laugh. Excitement tinges my grin. “Yeah, eventually.”
He kisses me one more time. “You know how excited I am, right?”
“I know.”
“We’re going to do this right. The practice, the baby… everything.”
“I know we are.” I kiss him one more time. “I love you.”
“I love you too.”
I squeeze his hand and turn to go.
“By the way, your grandmother’s coming in today,” he says.
“Oh, yeah?”
“She’s doing fine. Just a checkup.”
“Sounds good to me.” Aiden and my grandmother have gotten along really well lately, and her health is better than ever. I bet she could run a marathon.
“See you later,” he says as I leave the exam room.
I lean up against the wall in the hallway for a moment, catching my breath.
I’m married to a brilliant doctor who’s older and makes me feel so incredible. We’re running a highly successful practice that’s actually helping people.
And now I’m having his baby.
I don’t know how my life ended up here. I was just some random girl, doing illustrations for an ad agency, and now I’m happier than I’ve ever been. I’m content, I’m fulfilled.
I love my life. I love my husband.
Things are perfect. Every time I think about what’s coming, I can’t help but smile.
All because of Aiden. This is all because of him.
I head back to work, although it’s not really work. It’s my life, it’s my world.
My husband, my baby. I love him, and I know I’ll love my baby.
I can’t wait for what’s next.
THE END
