The door cracked open, and Mikhail poked his head in. “Sorry, are you going to spend all day—” His eyes fell on the test, and he went still. “What does it say?”
“What do you want it to say?” I asked, a new worry added to the list. This wasn’t planned. He already had a grown daughter.
He shook his head. “I’ll be thrilled if it’s yes, and if it’s no, we’ll just keep doing what we’re doing.”
“So, you’d be fine with more kids?”
“Kids, plural?” he asked, his eyes widening.
“Well, I’m a twin. Twins run in my family. It’s possible.”
“So that’s a yes?”
I looked at him to see he wasn’t scared at all. He looked excited. “It’s a yes.”
He whooped and picked me up around the waist, then gently set me back on the tiled floor. “I can’t wait,” he said. “You’re happy, right?”
“I really am,” I said, realizing it was true. “But, what about the wedding? We can’t rush it; everyone will be so disappointed. And I really wanted a ten-foot train. But we can’t wait either. My dad would have a heart attack.”
He rolled his eyes at my never-ending worry about my father, then snapped his fingers. “Two weddings. A quickie at the courthouse now and a big, lavish affair after the baby’s born.”
I pushed him out of the bathroom and onto the bed, climbing on top of him. “How are you so smart? And perfect and sexy?”
“I’m only those things because you believe them,” he said, wrapping his arms around me and kissing me sweetly. “So, now that we’re going to have a baby, do you think I’ll be the world’s sexiest dad?”
I burst out laughing, loving everything about him and every minute we were together. “Oh, Mikhail, you’ve always been the world’s sexiest dad to me.”
His face turned red, but I barely noticed as he pulled me in for another kiss.
