Then, there’s a quiet tap at the door and I look up to see Sam’s handsome face peering at us.
“Hey mama bear,” he says softly before walking into the room. He plants a delicate kiss on my lips and rests his large palm lightly on the baby’s tummy. “How’s our little girl?”
I smile up at Sam, my heart beyond full. “She’s incredible,” I gush quietly. “She won’t let go of my finger and I never want her to.” I feel my heart swell with love while looking down at our daughter’s innocent face, and life has never seemed so perfect. After all, Sam and I didn’t begin our relationship in exactly the most above-board manner. Instead, we used to be the man of the house and his little brat, but we’ve evolved way beyond that now. But the fact that we were worried about being outed seems positively ridiculous at the moment, and I laugh a little at the memory. Who cares? We were never a father-daughter duo, and as a result, it doesn’t matter what anyone thinks. All that matters is that we’re here, together, now.
I look up at my man’s handsome features, and to my surprise, those blue eyes are filled with tears.
“Are you okay?” I whisper.
He nods.
“I’ve just never been so happy, Harlow,” he manages in a shaky voice. “I’m grateful both for you and the baby.”
My heart fills with love until it’s overflowing.
“And I’m grateful to be with you too, Sam.”
After all, his betrayal was a blow to our relationship. I almost didn’t think we were going to make it, to be honest, given what he did. But we worked our way through the mess, and slowly but surely, things began to improve. In a surprise move, Sam didn’t lose his medical license even after he self-reported. Instead, he was put on probation for a few months, and after that ended, the board did another evaluation. They determined that my man is a damn fine physician who made a mistake, as all human beings do, and restored him to active status. Of course, it helped that I declined to press charges and even spoke glowingly of Sam at his disciplinary hearing.
But now, we’re parents, and I sigh with bliss.
“Are you going to be able to take time off from work to spend time with the baby?” I ask, wishing that I could live in this perfect scene forever.
Sam strokes my hair, his heart already caught by our tiny girl.
“I’ll take off all the time in the world if needed,” he vows, blue eyes misty. “You were so brave during labor,” my man continues, caressing my cheek affectionately. “I can’t imagine how hard it was, but you did it, Har.”
I smile gently. “To be honest, it was exhausting, but it’s fading rapidly now. They say mothers forget the pain pretty fast, right? Otherwise, there would be no second children, much less third or fourth.”
A flash goes through Sam’s blue eyes, and I begin to laugh.
“OMG, don’t even get me started on second children,” I warn in a low tone. “We just had our first!”
He grins, that handsome face irresistible.
“Of course not, honey, and I appreciate your sacrifice. Still, it’s a thought…”
I giggle again.
“Yeah, but we really should figure out our daughter’s name first,” I murmur. “The hospital says we can take our time, but they’ve kind of been bugging me even though I love calling her ‘Nugget.’”
Sam nods thoughtfully. “Any ideas?”
I ponder for a moment.
“Well, I do miss Ramona a lot. You know she went back to Chicago, right?”
My boyfriend nods.
“Yeah, and I know you’ve been sad about it. She was a good friend.”
“Yes, and she was a lot of fun too. You know that Ramona was only working at Club Z for the money, right? And actually, she specialized in taking two guys at once because it paid more.”
Sam stares at me.
“Holy fuck, are you kidding me? That girl?”
I giggle.
“Yes, it’s true! But don’t worry because Ramona really enjoyed threesomes. She said it made her feel really full, and that sometimes she’d come twice as hard from having two men inside.”
Sam shakes his head, and I notice how the bulge at his crotch twitches.
“Holy fuck,” is all he says again.
I nod once more.
“So yes, I miss her and her sassy ways. I asked if she was going to find a new club once she gets to Chicago, but the stint here was just a secret once-in-a-lifetime gig. Not only that, but she’s embarked on some kind of revenge scheme against some dude who stiffed her. Or something like that.”
Sam merely shakes his head again.
“Well, he’s definitely in for it then,” my boyfriend growls, “because Club Z girls give as good as they get, so he’s about to get the ride of his life.”
I nod.
“Hell yeah. Imagine what she’s going to do to him: maybe she inserts a dildo into his ass while he’s hanging upside down? Or she locks him in a cage and then fondles his balls through the wires? Who knows? I wouldn’t put it past her. Anyways, I miss Ramona like crazy, and she was really good and kind to me when we were going through our issues.”
