“More than every drop of water in the ocean.”
I place the test in the middle of his chest where the circular scar is. “Do you have enough room in your heart to love more?”
He picks it up with shaky hands and flips it over. “You’re pregnant? Really?”
“Really.”
He holds me tight to the point that I can’t breathe until I tap his shoulder.
“I love you,” he says. “All the space in my heart is reserved for you and what’s ours, Naomi. My heart doesn’t belong anywhere else.”
He stares at the test again and wipes under his left eye. “I’m going to be a dad.”
“The best dad.”
His hand flattens against my belly and his breaths come out shaky.
“This is by far the best adventure you’ve ever given me. You have forever pulled me out of the darkness I lingered in, Naomi.”
“That was always the deal, right? Since we were kids?”
“I hope our kids are just as lucky.”
He flips me over, settling himself between my legs and thrusts, showing how much he really does appreciate me.
The waves in the distance do nothing to cover my moans as he takes me higher.
I’ve been lavished in Gold, and now the new adventure between us truly begins.
