TEN

So, he hadn’t misunderstood. He watched as she left, his hopes crushed, mangled. She didn’t want children. And he had a bad feeling there wasn’t any way he was going to change her mind.

A heavy sigh escaped him. Lord, I’m not sure what You’re doing, but I sure wish You’d let me in on the plan. If Paige won’t ever be a mother, then we can’t ever be together. It’s as simple as that. And yet, I thought You might be working something out between us. If You’re not, then would You take away the growing feelings I have for her? They’re making me crazy.

Dylan figured God would reveal the reason He’d thrown he and Paige together at some point. But what if they weren’t meant to be together? What if God had brought her into his and Will’s life simply because He knew that she was the only person Will would respond to? What if Dylan didn’t figure into the plan?

Despair hit him. God didn’t work that way, did He?

He just wasn’t sure. One thing about faith was accepting that you couldn’t see the big picture. However, the one thing he was sure of was that God had a plan and whatever it was, it was the best thing for Dylan and Will. The thought reassured him somewhat.

As gently as possible, Dylan picked Will up from the couch and transferred him to the big king bed. Will didn’t need to be alone tonight. Normally, Dylan firmly believed children belonged in their own beds, but tonight … Well, tonight was different. If Will woke from his nightmares, Dylan wanted to be right by his side.

Dylan settled himself into the recliner once again and grabbed his Bible from the nightstand. Between Will and Paige, Dylan’s heart was on the world’s record of roller-coaster rides.

Again, his mind circled to the fact that Paige felt she’d make a lousy mother. He couldn’t grasp it. So she’d had a rotten childhood. A lot of people did. And they became parents. Some of them turned out to be good ones; some didn’t. Dylan flashed to her tender care of Will, her concern about the children at the school and the possibility that someone was dealing drugs in a place that was supposed to be safe and nurturing.

She couldn’t see it, but she would be a great mother.

Lord, help me show her. But protect my heart if it’s not to be.

His brain worked on the problem.

And, slowly, a plan formed.

If God allowed it, Dylan wanted Paige in his life long enough to figure out if they could have a relationship worth fighting for. His gaze went to Will, still sleeping. He looked peaceful for once.

But how long would that last?

What had Will seen in the garage that had frightened him so much?

A chill settled around Dylan. Was it the same person that had set fire to his sister’s house?

And if so, had Will seen the person responsible?

Dylan shuddered and determined to check into an alarm system first thing in the morning.
