He turned the sausage. That actually wasn’t the reaction he’d been expecting.

“When I thought that I was going to be having this baby on my own, I had to do a lot of thinking about what I was going to do.” She poured out his coffee, since it was done. “Cream? Sugar?”

“So much sugar,” he said. “Four teaspoons, maybe five.”

She laughed. “Okay, so this is why you wanted me to sweeten up my tea.” She went off to see to the coffee, still talking. “And I had this idea that I was maybe going to start a private practice, but it’s not the time for growth, not with a baby, so I’m tabling that. And also, I really want to be here for the baby, you know? So, I need to be home as much as possible.”

“A private practice, huh? That sounds awesome. But then we’re both going to be in business for ourselves, so that’s, uh, scary, too.”

She came back with the coffee. “Yeah, I can handle that kind of risk, though. I’m pretty self-disciplined, and I can sacrifice if I have to.”

He took the coffee, nodding. “Venna, uh, was not that way. But that’s how I am.”

“Maybe it feels right with us because we have things in common,” she said. “You know, I was thinking about Mariana and her husband, how they have this shared goal, and how nice that is.”

“We can have a shared goal,” he said, plating up the sausage.

“Yeah?” She eyed him. “But it can’t be with our jobs.”

“No, my job’s my thing. Your job is your thing. That’s fine and healthy, honestly. And besides, I need something that’s mine.”

“Me too,” she said.

“But, uh, the baby, obviously, that’s a shared goal.”

“Or the house?”

“You mean,myhouse?”

“We’re obviously moving in there,” she said. “It’s much better than this one and much better for a baby to grow up in.”

“Obviously, huh? Were you going to ask me about this?”

“Oh, please, later on this morning, I’m going to tie you to the bedposts of my bed and you’re going to lie there with your cock pulsing and so hard it’s turned purple andbegme to decorate every square inch of your house with snowmen.”

His cock went from zero to full mast immediately. He coughed.

She grinned at him.

He laughed. “So, you’re going to do that a lot, aren’t you?” His voice was gravelly. “You’re going to order me around.”

“Well, it makes you really hot,” she said with a wicked grin.

“It does,” he said, nodding. “It definitely does.” He pulled her into the circle of his arms and kissed her.

She clung to him.

He cupped her face with both of his hands. “So, seriously? You want to move in with me?”

“Youdowant me to decorate your house.”

“Uh…” He kissed her again. “Will you still find me very ruggedly handsome and manly if I say yes?”

She was grinning widely at him.

“Look, this might sound… wrong,” he muttered. “I think the thing is that I got that house for a wife and a family. I want that. I want to prioritize that, and… you might not like this, but the business is part of it. Like, if I don’t have a thriving business, I can’t afford the things I want to give to a family—”

“No, I get that,” she said, sounding confused. “That doesn’t sound wrong.”
