Forever Spencer (B&S Series #3.5)

“I thought your water broke at home?” I asked.
“It did.”
“Mr. Montgomery, a lot of times it takes a while before it’s time. Just relax,” the nurse said as she checked Spencer’s vitals.
“That’s easy for you to say, Jackie.”
She smiled. “I deal with fathers like you every day. Trust me. We’ll let you know when it gets closer.”
There was a knock at the door, and I looked up, seeing Blake in the doorway.
“How’s my Poker Shark doing?” he asked.
“I’m good,” Spencer replied.
“Are you the only one here?” I asked.
“Yeah, I didn’t see anyone else.”
“Great. I need to talk to you in the hall.”
His eyes got big, and then he followed me out. “Relax. Remember what we talked about?”
“Yeah. You want me to do that today?”
“No, you can do it tomorrow. I don’t want anything to get ruined.”
“Alright. I’ll get it done. Stacey will be here this afternoon, and I’ll get her to help me.”
“Stacey’s coming? No… don’t answer that. I don’t want to know until you’re married.”
“I’m not getting married.”
“Yeah, we’ll see about that,” I said, slapping him on the back.
*~*~*
Holy shit, that was a lot of work, and I wasn’t the one having a baby come out of them.
My girl was a trooper. After being in labor for nine hours, Kyle finally decided to come out. Just like the moment I first laid eyes on Spencer, I fell in love with my baby boy.
He had Spencer’s eyes and nose, my smile and a set of lungs on him that I swear everyone heard in the waiting room.
“We made that,” I said, kissing Spencer’s cheek and whispering in her ear. It was the same thing she told me when we thought I was having a baby before. But this time, it was true, and we had all the proof we needed.
“We sure did.” She smiled up at me.
*~*~*
After being in the hospital for two days, Spencer and Kyle were released. I drove home, hoping that Blake had pulled through and finished my plan.
Kyle was sleeping in his car seat as we pulled into the garage. When I opened the door to the house, Becca, Ryan and our parents were waiting.
“What are you two doing here?” Spencer asked Becca and Ryan.
“You’ll see,” Becca said, winking at me.
“Give me my nephew,” Ryan said.
I laughed—typical Ryan.
“Be careful with him,” Spencer said.
“Spence, I know how to take care of a baby.”
“Hurry up, Ryan. We grandparents want to hold our grandson,” Spencer’s mom, Julie, said.
My mom nodded as she smiled and admired her grandson.
“I have something for you,” I said.
“For me?” Spencer asked.
“Yeah. Everyone can watch Kyle for a little while so I can take you somewhere.”
“Take me somewhere? I’m tired.”
“Babe… trust me.”
Spencer looked at me for a few seconds and then back to Kyle and kissed him on the forehead before walking back to the door.
“It’s this way,” I said, gesturing towards the kitchen.
“I thought we were going somewhere?”
“We are. Follow me.”
Spencer followed behind me as I led her through the kitchen and to the backyard.
“You’re taking me to our backyard?”
“No, I’m taking you to Hawaii.”
We stepped out into our backyard that Blake, our parents and Stacey had transformed into a tropical oasis. A hammock hung between two trees with a few potted palm trees that weren’t fully grown around it. Tiki torches led a path to a fire pit that sat in front of our outdoor bar that was decorated to look like a tiki hut. And our outdoor sound system was playing the sound of the ocean.
“I know it’s not the real Hawaii, but it’s close enough for now until we can go once Kyle is a little older.”
“It’s perfect.”
“I didn’t know what to get you for your push present, but I know Hawaii now holds bad memories, and I want us to make new ones there—as a family.”
Spencer looked over at me and smiled. “Without those memories, I would have never met you. Life gave me a handful of lemons, and I turned them into lemonade, and I plan on drinking it the rest of my life,” she said, reaching up to give me a kiss.
“I look forward to it, Mrs. Montgomery.”
THE END.

NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR
Dear Readers,
