CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE
Jesus, he’d never beenso nervous for a date. This one was different, though. This morning he was taking two girls out.
Or at least a little girl and her sexy mom.
It had been his idea. One, because he wanted to see Olivia over the weekend while she had Sammy,andbecause he wanted to prove he wasn’t concerned about her being a mom.
It was also so he could spend time with Sammy. If he and Olivia were going to be in a relationship, it was important he get to know Sammy and be introduced as her mom’s boyfriend.
Or whatever Olivia wanted to refer to him as.
When he knocked, Sammy opened the door.
“Fletcher!” she said, jumping up and down.
“Hey squirt. Excited for our day out?”
“Yup. Ice cream, right? Mom said there would be ice-cream,” she replied as Olivia appeared behind her, looking absolutely gorgeous.
He missed sleeping with her every night, but hopefully that would soon change.
“There will be ice-cream but first we have a little drive. Are you ready?” Fletcher asked.
“A drive? Where are we going this early on a Saturday?” Olivia laughed as Sammy nodded eagerly and reached to pick up her little pink backpack beside the door.
“Hop into the car and you’ll see,” he grinned, waving them down the stairs to where Frederick was parked.
They drove the ten miles to Wave Hill. Or, as it was often referred to, The Garden of Wonders.
It was twenty-eight acres of public gardens, woodlands and sprawling lawns perched above the Hudson River where a lot of families went to enjoy a day out. There were all sorts of activities, such as art for kids, nature walks and story time.
He’d thought it was something they could all enjoy.
“Oh, wow. I’ve always wanted to bring you here, Sammy,” Olivia said, as they climbed out of the back seat of the car.
Fletcher mentally patted himself on the back and tugged his baseball cap down in the hope no one would recognize him. The last thing they wanted was media attention.
