She did know him, but she had to be sure, she had to give him that option even if he never took it. He kept saying this was her decision and she had decided to keep the baby, but it had to be his decision to stay with her, with both of them.
“Sometimes I do love that stubborn streak,” she replied returning his smile, though hers was a little stronger than his.
Dropping her gaze to his hand as it moved slowly to rest against her stomach, she drew her bottom lip in between her teeth. Even though she was expecting the touch her muscles still contracted involuntarily under his hand, but she quickly covered his with her own to keep it there and let him know it was alright.
“Believe me, I know,” she said with a bit of a strained chuckle. She hadn’t thought it even possible, hadn’t expected to ever have to deal with this, and now... it would take some time to truly sink in, she was sure. Her body had already started to change, and it was probably that physical aspect that would finally drive the point home. He had said it was a good thing, though, and she raised her eyes back to his face, just reading his expression.
