1 nodded, feeling tears of joy spill down my cheeks. “We’re having a baby.”
Brandon pressed his forehead against mine, his hands now gently resting on my still–flat stomach. ‘I can’t believe it,‘ he murmured. “This is amazing.”
“Are you happy?” I asked softly.
“Happy doesn’t begin to cover it,” he replied, his voice thick with emotion. “Summer, this is… I never thought I could feel this way.”
“And we need to call Sean,” Brandon continued, already pulling out his phone. “We need to get you the best doctor, schedule a full checkup, make sure everything is okay.”
“Brandon,” I said, placing my hand over his. “Slow down. We have time for all that tomorrow. Right now, can we just… enjoy this moment?”
He took a deep breath and nodded, his face softening into a smile that made my heart melt. “You’re right.”
I placed my hand on my stomach, marveling at the miracle growing inside me. Despite all the drama with Lyanna, despite all the business challenges, despite everything–this felt right. This felt like the beginning of something beautiful.
“Our baby,” I whispered, looking up at Brandon with tears in my eyes.
“Our baby,” he repeated, his voice filled with wonder. “I love you, Summer. Both of you.”
