Chapter 21

It was a long flight home, or at least it felt long. It seemed as if every thought that crossed my mind brought me right back into Wes’s arms. I was stunned that I had been the one to initiate the kiss. I never thought I’d be brave enough. But seeing him again was like a second chance to truly go after what I desired, and I still felt dizzy from the impact of it.

How could I feel so strongly for him?

I did know him fairly well, but I’d never considered him an option for romance. Now that the memory of his kiss lingered on my lips, I couldn’t think of anything else.

When the plane landed we had to wait on the tarmac for a few minutes. I sent a text to Hanna letting her know that I’d arrived, and then discovered that I had a text from Justin.

Can’t wait to see you again. Can we have dinner tomorrow?

I hadn’t even thought of Justin once on the plane ride home. My mind was on Wes and how I wished we weren’t so far apart. But a kiss didn’t fix everything. All my concerns about a relationship with him were still valid. Sure, he was eager and determined, and the way he’d spoken to me at the airport made me think that he might just be the most amazing man who’d ever walked the face of the earth.

But I also knew that he had no clue what he was getting into. Nothing could prepare him for life with a single mother. His intentions might be good, but when reality kicked in, I didn’t know how long those good intentions would last.

I hadn’t truly given Justin a chance, but the thought of seeing him again caused a dull ache in my chest. It was Wes I wanted to see again.

I decided not to answer right away. I pushed thoughts of both men aside as I eagerly made my way through the main gate and searched the crowd for any sign of Hanna. I hoped that she would bring the boys with her, but I hadn’t had time to text her and ask if she would before my flight took off.

It didn’t take long for me to find two bouncing heads in the crowd.

“Brady! Tyler!” I spread my arms wide as they both bounded up to me. As amazing as my weekend had been, nothing compared to the sweet sensation of my children throwing their arms around me.

I held them close.

“Ugh, Mom, I can’t breathe.” Brady coughed.

“Oh, stop.” I laughed and loosened my grip. “It’s so good to see you guys. Did you have fun with Aunt Hanna?”

“Yup.” Tyler beamed. “I felt the baby move.”

“You did?” I looked up at Hanna with wide eyes.

“Oh yeah, this little one has been kicking up a storm.” She patted her belly.

“Wow! Did you get bigger while I was gone?”

“Ouch—nice, Noella.” She rolled her eyes and laughed.

“Oh, stop. It just means you’re getting closer to the big day.
