She pulled away and covered his mouth when he protested. “Open my gift.” She stretched across the table and brought it to him, then resettled in his lap, right on top of his cock.
Noah groaned, then sighed. “Fine, I open your gift, then I get to open you, the gift I really want,” he growled.
She nipped at the whiskers on his jaw. “Deal!”
Noah ripped open the plain wrapping paper and flipped open the box. And froze, his hand hovering over the white plastic stick. His entire body tensed as he picked it up and then sagged into the seat as he stared at the plus sign.
Kensley turned and straddled her husband. His startled, somewhat frightened gaze shifted from the stick to her. A dry croak escaped his parted lips, then, “We’re pregnant?”
“We’re pregnant,” she said and burst into happy tears.
Noah wrapped her tightly into his arms, and together they held onto each other.
“I’d begun to think it wouldn’t happen.” She sniffed after her tears had ebbed. “But I was afraid to say anything, do anything.”
“Me too, baby. Me too. But we’re here now. We’re going to have a child. Our child.” He took a deep breath and wheezed, “I’m going to be a father.”
She stared into his eyes and wondered if it were possible to love him more as she whispered, “I’m going to be a mom… I’m scared.”
Forehead to forehead, he stared into her soul. “Our child will be the luckiest kid in the world to have you as a mom.”
She stared deep into his chestnut eyes and found everything she needed to take the hardest yet most rewarding journey of her life. “I love you.”
“Not as much as I love you.”
Nothing more was needed but to seal the promise with a kiss.
Eight months later, after fourteen grueling hours of labor, weighing in at nine pounds and seven ounces, they welcomed Kevin Noah Kirby. He had his uncle’s sparkling baby blues eyes, and mischievous smile.
Five years later, little Kevin caught his first fly ball at the Nevell Little League Baseball Field on Mable Street, one block away from his home.
