“Can’t wait,” I grin, hugging Shelby close.
“Ugh, me either!” she agrees wholeheartedly. “Our son is using my bladder as his private trampoline. I need to pee constantly. And don’t even get me started on my indigestion and swollen feet!”
Jensen chuckles as if remembering Poppy experiencing similar symptoms.
“Seriously, you two did great. Look at this perfect little human you created,” Shelby says in wonder.
“We did do pretty great, didn’t we?” Poppy says tiredly, her eyes soft and loving as she looks at her daughter. “Who would’ve thought a chance meeting in the bar that night would lead to this? Married to the man of my dreams with a gorgeous baby girl?”
Jensen and Poppy met the night Shelby returned to Houston following her grandpa’s death. Like us, it was love at first sight for them both. And now here we are, three years later, our babies due within days of each other.
“Me,” Jensen replies immediately. “Knew I was going to marry you the second you threw yourself into my arms.”
Poppy releases a long-suffering sigh. “You and I have very different memories of who threw themselves at whom.”
“Maybe. But that’s what I’m telling our daughter.” He smirks.
“So, you’re going to tell your daughter it’s okay for her to throw herself into a random man’s arms when she’s older?” Shelby asks, her mouth twitching with a smile.
That wipes the smirk off Jensen’s face. “Hell, no! She’s not going anywhere near the opposite sex until she’s at least thirty!”
“Aaaand, there’s my caveman,” Poppy laughs.
Shelby snuggles into my side, and the look she gives me is so full of love and anticipation for our future that it takes my breath away. Three years with this gorgeous creature has done nothing to quench my desire for her. She’s my everything: she and our baby boy.
I can’t wait for our next chapter together.
