“Yes!” Lucas says.
We stop on the third floor and head down to the pool. It’s after eleven, so the pool is closed and the door is locked.
“Awww,” Lucas says, clearly disappointed. It’s the first time I’ve seen him upset all day.
“Hold on,” Harris says as he takes off down the hall. “I’ll be right back.”
He comes back a minute later with the security guard who swipes his card and lets us in.
“How did you do that?” I ask as we sneak into the dark room. The only light is from the beautiful pool, which gives the whole area a blue ethereal glow.
“I slipped him a hundred,” he says with a sly grin.
This man is full of surprises.
“Can we go in?” Lucas asks as he bends down and puts his hand in the water. “It’s so warm.”
Normally, I’d say no since he doesn’t have a bathing suit, towel, or change of clothes, but I’m the cool mom tonight. I’m just going with the flow.
“Sure,” I say. “Strip down to your underwear.”
He’s giddy as he gets undressed. “Are you coming in too, Dad?”
Harris grins at him. “Definitely!”
I forget to breathe as I watch him pull off his suit jacket and then start unbuttoning his crisp white shirt.
That sexy tattoo comes into view and I’m feeling my pulse racing away as I try not to look at his muscular shoulders and shredded abs. My eyes don’t care what my brain is telling them. They keep darting back to his rippling muscles and perfect arms.
When they’re both in their underwear, they hold hands and do cannonballs into the pool.
Lucas squeals in delight when he pops up, clinging to Harris’ arm.
“You coming in?” Harris asks with a heated look.
They’re both waving at me to join them. My little family is in there and all they’re missing is me. Nope, not family. Stay grounded, girl.
I can’t say no.
“Don’t look,” I say as I start to strip down to my bra and underwear. My body is not the same as the last time he saw me. After going through a pregnancy and months of breastfeeding, my body has taken some damage, but Harris doesn’t seem to mind with the heated way he keeps glancing over at me.
I quickly slip into the pool and swim over as Lucas squeals.
We have so much fun.
Harris throws Lucas into the water over and over. We all get out and jump into the deep end together while holding hands. Lucas is in the middle at first, but then I notice how Harris squeezes his way into the middle so he can hold my hand.
I forgot how powerful these hands were. They feel good.
It feels like we’re a happy little family. I don’t know what the future holds for us, but I’m glad that Lucas got to experience this, even if it is just for one night. I’m glad I got to experience it too. It’s a night I’ll never forget.
We grab our clothes and rush to the elevators in our underwear, still soaking wet. We all giggle to each other when the elevator doors open and the elderly couple inside gives us a shocked look.
They push into the corner as we crowd inside and ride the elevator up to the top floor.
Harris’ room is amazing. It’s a two-bedroom suite with a bar and a stunning view of Kansas City. The food is already arranged on the table. We quickly dry off with the bathroom towels and sit down to eat.
Harris orders the latest Ninja Turtles movie on the giant TV and we all smile and laugh as we watch it while eating the burgers and fries. When we get to dessert, we bring the massive pieces of chocolate cake into the big bed and eat it all warm in the blankets while watching the movie.
