Redeemed Book 2: A Military Stepbrother Romance (20 page)

“Do you really think so?” I dropped my voice a little lower. “ I’m so worried that I won’t be…”

“How can you say that? You can be an amazing mother, I have no doubt. And I’m to be there with you every step of the way.”

That last part right there was all I needed to hear. Harrison would be with me every step of the way, and together, we could figure it out.
 

Whatever this baby was, whoever they turned out to be, they would be loved. We’d be there for them like we were there for each other. That was all that mattered.

I smiled back at Harrison, losing myself in his warm grin. I squeezed his hand back, feeling a newfound love and connection that I could easily get used to. I couldn’t keep it in any longer, and I started to cry. “I think,” I blubbered on between the tears, “you’re going to be an amazing father too.” I looked around at the other guests, wondering what they must be thinking of these two weirdos getting all emotional in the restaurant.

Luckily everyone seemed engrossed in their own little worlds, far too interesting to care about us, and that was just fine with me. The only person whose opinion I really cared about sat across the table from me, with my hand in his, looking at me, face covered in a gaze of pure love and a lot of lust too.

I remembered Maggie telling me about how Chris had been all over her once he’d found out she was pregnant, and I could guess from the last couple minutes that Harrison would keep that trend alive.

“I sure hope so. With my genes this kid’s gonna need it.”

We both laughed and Harrison held my hand, reached across the table and wiped away my tears and I couldn’t stop crying and it didn’t matter.

“You’ll never be cold again, Laurel. Not with me around.” Harrison repeated, just loud enough for me to hear. I pressed my hand against his, forgetting where I ended and he began. “It’s my job to keep you warm for the rest of our lives.”

Maybe this would turn out okay after all.

That’s all I could ask for.
 

Ahem.

That’s all we could ask for.
