“I was thinking how lucky I am and how much I love you.”
“Did any of those thoughts involve how much you want to give me a blow job right now?”
I snort and shake my head. “Insatiable.”
“Only for you, my love, only for you.”
Small feet pounding down the hallway have us both turning to the door. I’m straddled over Linc and make no move to get up. We’ve decided Eric should see love and affection between us and he’s so used to seeing us like this or kissing that he doesn’t give it a second thought, although we keep it PG around him.
“Linc, Uncle Harry is looking for you.”
Eric is bouncing from foot to foot and I know this move to our forever home is as exciting for him as it is us. It was another measure of security in an uncertain world.
“He is?”
“Yeah.”
At that precise moment, Harrison walks in looking harried and stressed like I’d never seen before, and he has his phone hanging from his hand.
Linc stiffens beneath me and then palms my ass to move me off him.
“What’s going on?”
“I have to go.”
“Okay.”
I stand, feeling the tension oozing from the normally cool Harrison.
“I have a son.”
Linc’s eyes go wide, and he moves closer to grip his friend’s arm. “What?”
“I just got a call. Apparently, a woman named Norrie Richards was brought in after a serious accident and she has me down as the guardian for her son, who’s also listed as my son.”
“Jesus. Is she gonna make it?”
“I don’t have a clue. But I have to go because if I don’t, they’ll put him with a foster family.”
“Do you know this woman?”
Harrison looks at us, his eyes wide and haunted. “Yes.”
“And is it possible she’s telling the truth?”
“Yes.”
“Then go and take Beck with you. He’ll be able to help you with all the medical jargon.”
Harrison nodded. “Yeah, good idea.”
Linc walks Harrison out and I miss the conversation, but I know it would consist of Linc offering whatever help he can.
I send Eric off to unpack his room and go to find Linc, who’s coming back in from the drive. “Is he okay?”
Linc wraps me in his arms. “Yeah, a little shaken but he’ll be fine, and he has all of us and I sent my mother with him too.”
“Yeah, he does, and Heather was a good idea. She’ll keep him calm and offer some support.”
