Birdie nodded thoughtfully as she helped herself to some more fruit.
“And it’s hard to believe I’m saying this,” Jess said with a grin that took any sting from her words, “but you really do look natural with him. Will, too. The change we’ve witnessed in the both of you is kind of breathtaking.”
It was wild how good her words made me feel. Me—the woman who never wanted to have children. “Seb landing in our lives the way he did kind of forced the issue. Will was determined to do the right thing from the start, and all I wanted to do was support him in any way I could. I’m not sure either of us expected to fall in love with the little guy so hard or so fast.”
“Any word from Seb’s biological mother?” Emily asked in a quiet voice.
A pang of sadness stabbed at my throat, followed by a flare of insecurity. If it were up to me, I’d keep that little boy all to myself, but I’d seen the way Will struggled with his relationship with his own father, and I didn’t want that for Seb.
“No,” I replied. “Will has tried to reach out, but she hasn’t responded. To be honest, I don’t know what’s the better outcome—Seb having a reluctant mother or having her disappear forever. That’s something Will struggles with, too.”
Jess nodded. She was the only one besides me in the room who knew Will’s history. “That’s understandable.”
“Well, Seb is lucky to have you,” Emily offered. “Will, too. I’m sure he appreciates your support. And to think if that pipe had never burst in your studio, and if your apartment hadn’t been unliveable all this time, things might have turned out very differently.”
The girls murmured their astonishment at how serendipitous this whole situation had been, and I bit my lip to stop myself from blurting out that I could have moved out of the loft after a few days if I’d wanted to. The only people who knew about that were the people at the insurance company and the contractors who had finished the repairs on my place almost two weeks ago—and that’s the way it was going to stay.
“I guess the Universe had a plan for us,” I agreed.
Tash’s cheeks bloomed a brighter shade of red. “I have another question, if that’s all right?”
“Oh, this one’s about sex for sure,” Birdie said around a mouthful of strawberry.
Tash laughed. “You got me. I have to know: how do you find time for it with a baby in the house?”
We chuckled with her, but four sets of curious eyes turned to me, and I basked in the attention. It was about time I had some stories to tell.
“Take notes, ladies, because this is important information that you’re going to need one day.” I wiggled my eyebrows and started counting off on my fingers. “Tip number one: grandparents.”

Will
Abbie’s alarm went offearly on Monday morning, and she rolled towards it with a groan. The motion also took her out of my arms, so as soon as the irritatingbeep beep beepwas cut off, I reached out and pulled her back, latching on with my arms and legs to keep her between the sheets with me. Where she belonged.
I nuzzled the back of her neck and inhaled her coconut skin before mumbling, “Don’t get up.”
“I have to,” she moaned, but she tucked her back against my middle, and I curled around her protectively.
Snuggling. It was kind of nice.
Abbie pressed her arse against my pelvis, and I greeted the soft warmth of her skin with the hard length of my cock. A lusty sigh dropped from her lips, and as her hips circled against me, I snaked a hand up over her stomach to cup her breast.
Fuck, this was the life. Touching my girl in the hour before the sun came up. Tracing the slope of her neck and kneading the flesh around her hips while she wriggled against my dick.
My mind raced ahead, fantasising about what might come next.
I’d groan with pleasure as she slipped her hand between her thighs to stroke my cock, then guide me into her pussy. Sweating with restraint, I’d sink into her with thrusts so slow and deep they tortured us both. I’d pull back to watch my dick disappear inside her, reach around to play with her clit, bite her shoulder to stop myself from crying out as we came together, then pull out at the last minute and shoot my cum over those sexy little divots in her lower back…
Snuggling. It led to other things.
“I have a class in half an hour,” Abbie said with a whimper as I circled my palm over one hard nipple before giving it a gentle pinch.
I nipped the soft flesh between her neck and shoulder, then applied my tongue to soothe the pain. “I’ll be quick.”
“Mm,” she moaned, but she pressed her arse more firmly against my cock, and I rolled my hips in response. “We can’t.”
Skating my fingers down her side, I traced the line of her panties before dipping one finger under the elastic and following it around to her pussy. “Are you sure?”
