Despite everything, I suddenly feel all warm inside.

So, he is happy that I’m pregnant!

I allow myself a brief moment of joy before turning my mind back to the horrible matter at hand.

“What are we going to do about the video?” Sandra asks, alarmed.

Brody places both of his hands over the cart and leans forward, making the wheels twist just slightly. “I have already changed strategy for the security. Security officers will be wearing bullet proof vests, and I’ve enhanced their numbers all around the concert venue.”

My heart aches for Brody, and I walk to his side, embracing him tight. He hugs me back, and I feel as safe as I’ll ever be.

Sandra looks at us again, feeling one more time like the third wheel. Uneasy, she looks from side to side, shifting her weight between her feet.

“I probably interrupted something. I better get going,” she says, backing up towards the door.

“I’ll open it for you,” Brody says, subtle as a bull in a china shop.

Once we’re alone again, we look at each other, awkward and uncertain of what to do or what to say. He already has a son, but I’ll need time to adjust to the fact that I’m generating a life inside of me and that I’ll be a parent soon.

“Let’s go to bed,” he says, very gentle, placing a hand on my shoulder and the other at my hip.

I get rid of the robe and crawl under the covers, my hair still a tangled mess, but it can wait until morning. Brody follows me and hops into bed, naked too, reaching for my waist to bring me close to him.

In no time, we’re kissing, at first very sweet, but soon we do it with a growing passion that steals our breaths and makes our bodies quiver.

Our legs interlock, moving together in a single motion that increases how flushed I feel exponentially. It doesn’t take long before I climb on top of Brody, straddling him like a cowgirl mounting a dangerous colt.

“You’re still in the mood, huh?” he asks, catching his breath in between kisses.

“Is that a problem?” I say, nibbling on his chin and only going lower.

He jumps a little when I kiss his neck and then I’m the one caught by surprise when he lifts my hips with his hands and positions me directly over him. My breath catches as we lock eyes and I push down hard as he thrusts up, making me cry out.

We stay that way for a moment, just staring at each other. I enjoy the feeling of him inside me, but it doesn’t take long before we begin moving together, slowly at first, but then it quickly turns into a frenzy of passion.

I have to grab hold of his shoulders to ground myself and give me leverage as I move even faster. I close my eyes as I feel his hands on my chest as we move together and it isn’t too long before I cry out and he moans, both of us shuddering together.

Neither of us make a move to separate. I just lean down and kiss him gently before whispering, “I wonder if our baby will look more like me or you?”’

I say it light-heartedly, but I can’t hide the tear that falls down my cheek as I sit back up and smile down at him. I can see his eyes watering too as he reaches a hand up to gently wipe away my tear with his thumb.

I slowly slide down to lay next to him and we both face each other.

Tenderly looking at me in the eye, Brody caresses my hair and nuzzles my nose with his. “Princess…” he whispers, smiling.

“Strongman,” I say in reply, smiling just as widely.

“I think I love you. You know that?” Brody says.

I blush violently, my eyes wide, a breath held still in my lungs as if waiting for time, which has frozen, to pass.

“I… No man has ever said that to me,” I say in a pleading voice. “Is it true?”

He brings my head to rest against his chest, and says to me softly, almost like a lullaby, “I wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t.”

This reassures me, and I almost feel like crying for a moment.

“Well, I think I love you too!” I say, all teary, but giggling in the end.
