"Where is my baby?"

"Naomi? Taking a nap."

"For how long?" he asked.

"Usually about an hour. Like always."

"No, how long has she been sleeping?"

"Oh, I just put her down. I sat down to finish this like two minutes before you walked in."

Owen smiled at me and raised his eyebrows.

I knew what he was asking.

He leaned against me just the right way.

The answer to his question was a resounding yes. I felt a warm sensation in the pit of my stomach, knowing what was about to happen. It was a familiar feeling of anticipation, urgency, and need.

I was thankful that our daughter had just fallen asleep. She was tired, too, she had been up since early this morning.

I stashed my needle and thread on the table, and I smiled up at my husband, biting my lip and flirting with him.

Owen smiled back at me as he took my hand, and the rest was history.
