CHAPTER TEN

KATE

Last night I had the best sleep I’ve had in weeks. I almost forgot how good Daniel makes me feel when we’re together. Things are just so easy with him, almost effortless. I’m smiling like a fool when Jess knocks on the door, except it’s not Jess—it’s Connor.

“So I heard a little bit of fun escape these walls last night, which means you should be in a great mood today. Get up and shower, I’m taking you to breakfast. Nice shirt, by the way,” he says with a smirk and then closes the door behind him.

Shit.

Not that it matters what he heard; I’m pretty sure Connor wants me with Daniel and not Mike, anyway. Those two, my god they’re going to drive me into an early grave. I need to do a better job at keeping my distance because they both turn me on beyond measure.

Before leaving, we quickly go check in on Vanessa. Jess is already over there making her breakfast and shooting the breeze.

“Kate, you look beautiful this morning!” Vanessa exclaims when she sees me and I blush.

“Oh, I get it,” she says with a laugh. “Well, for what it’s worth, your secret is safe with me.”

Connor laughs, “It’s not you she has to worry about; it’s those two and their not-so-subtle pissing match they have going on.”

“So how are things going over here?” I ask, sitting next to her at the table.

“Things are good, really good,” she says with a beaming smile. “Chad and his fiancée broke up and he says he misses me.”

I’m stunned.

“Wow, Vanessa, that’s really great!” I’m excited for her. I know how much she loves him and the fact that he’s taking the first step so she knows he cares is wonderful.

“What about Daniel and Mike?” Not that I’ve been encouraging them to be with her. I’ve finally realized a family won’t be an option until they know whose baby it is, but at least they’re getting to know her now so it might be an option later.

She shakes her head at me. “You know my heart is with Chad. He might not be the father but I think we’ll be able to co-parent pretty easily with either of them. I was open to a family, Kate, but now everything is different. Chad is my family and always has been.”

“So are you going to move back in with him?” Connor asks incredulously. I can see he’s ticked that I’m supporting her and now she’s going back to Chad.

“No, we’re going to try dating. There’s still a lot to work out and the two of us living together didn’t work out so well the first time. I’m trying to do the responsible thing for once. I want to learn how to be a mom and a co-parent before anything else. We’re just going to take baby steps. And I’m really excited to get into the internship program Kate is setting me up with. I finally feel like my life can be good—that I actually can have a purpose.
