Chapter 15

Lily

After spending a late evening with Blake, he finally heads home around 11 p.m. He wants to get back to Ethan. A bittersweet mix of contentment and longing fills my heart as I see him go. Blake’s concern for Ethan is evident, worried that the little boy might wake up in the middle of the night searching for his father. He’s been having a lot of nightmares lately. Blake’s response to that makes me feel assured that I’m making the right choice to be with him. He is a tender and understanding father. I’m sure he will be no different with our baby.

“Goodbye, Blake,” I say, a hint of reluctance in my voice as we exchange farewells on my doorstep. We’ve made plans to meet in the morning for breakfast, a small moment of normalcy before I dive back into the demands of work.

“Are you sure you don’t want to take another few days off? I can handle the girls.”

Blake’s concern for my well-being is evident. He wants to make sure I have enough rest after our life-changing discovery. His consideration warms my heart, but I assure him that I’m feeling much better already.

“I appreciate your concern, Blake,” I reply, a grateful smile playing on my lips. “But truly, I’m feeling much better now. Resting today has done wonders. I’m sure it’s a one-off while my body is adjusting. Plus, I don’t want to leave the staff hanging for too long. You know how they are.”

He looks at me with a mixture of relief and hesitation, as if he’s torn between wanting to protect me and respecting my independence. I reach out and gently touch his arm, hoping to reassure him.

“Trust me, Blake,” I continue, my voice filled with conviction. “I know my body, and I feel like I’ve bounced back quickly. You’ll see me in the morning. Breakfast together sounds like the perfect way to start the day.”

His eyes soften, a warm smile spreading across his face. He takes my hand in his and gives it a reassuring squeeze. It’s a simple gesture, but it speaks volumes of his support and understanding.

“All right, Lily,” he says, his voice filled with affection. “If you’re sure you’re up for it, then I won’t argue.”

I nod, grateful for his concern and the love that shines through his words.

“I promise, Blake,” I reply, my voice filled with sincerity. “Now get back home and to bed.”

He laughs, still fiddling with his keys. I can tell he’s torn.

“Go on, I’m going to bed now,” I tell him with a grin.

He looks back up and me and then suddenly he’s stepping into my space, kissing me on my doorstep, and stealing my breath away. I grip his strong shoulders, my knees feeling weak as his kiss seems to consume me. We pull apart a few moments later and he gives me a stunning grin before finally saying goodbye for real.

The next morning, filled with a mix of fear and hope, I sit next to Blake as we confront the reality of our unexpected pregnancy over breakfast at a diner.
