Chapter Twelve

“Are you being serious right now?” Tabitha asked.

“Yeah, totally serious.” Simon stood at the door with it open. She heard the car in the front yard running.

“You’re taking me back?”

He nodded.

She stepped toward him and paused. “Is there a catch?”

“Yeah. I want to meet our son. I want to know more about him and be a part of his life. You’ve also got to give me a chance.”

“So what you’re saying is this is an ultimatum.”

“No, Tabby. This is me trying to do the right thing and also keep you. I’m selfish like that. You should have realized it long ago.” He smiled.

He looked so sad. They’d had a good couple of days. She got to meet his friends and see a part of him she hadn’t known in a long time. Simon was amazing. There was no doubt about it. He’d just proven to be a lousy husband.

“Can I just go and see my son? Talk to someone?” She glanced down at her body. “Maybe wear my own clothes?”

“You don’t like my stuff?”

“I do, but it’s not me.” She liked having Simon’s scent wrapped around her. Little by little, she found herself no longer angry at him. Again, she didn’t know if that was a good thing or not.

The pain had lessened a little bit, which she was thankful for, but there was still so much damage between them. She honestly didn’t know if they were ever going to repair it.

Tucking her hair behind her ear, she smiled at him.

Closing the distance, she cupped his face and went on her toes, kissing him. “Thank you.”

“Don’t thank me yet. I want to steal you away forever.”

A part of her wanted that. The part of her that wished they could be locked away forever, close off the world, and throw away the key. It wasn’t going to happen. They weren’t designed like that.

“Take me back to him, please.”

She missed Nathan so much. Just the other night, she’d been sitting there, and all she wanted to do was read him a book. To be near him. He was her son, and she loved him more than anything in the world.

Passing Simon, she moved toward the truck and climbed into the passenger seat. There was no sign of his friends or Dean.

Dean liked to stop by.

She ran her hands over the sweatpants. The shirt she wore was creased. Simon didn’t own an iron and so she didn’t have any way of making his clothes look neat. Even though large shirts and sweats didn’t exactly require an iron.

“Don’t worry about how you look. He won’t care.”

“How do you know?” she asked.

“I had a mom, remember? I know how this goes.”

She chuckled. “Lexie wears creased sweatpants and a shirt?”

“Yep, and she also had the vomit stains as well from the milk. I’m used to it and if Nathan loves you, he won’t care.”

“What a way to strain a relationship. What if he doesn’t love me?” she asked, glancing toward him.

“It’s not possible. He will love you.
