“What are you doing here? How?”
“I received a call that I’m going to be a grandmother. Then this handsome young man showed up on my doorstep to introduce himself and ask if I was okay with him marrying my little girl. Look at you, you look so beautiful,” she replies as she cups my face in her hands.
“Wait, you met Cam?”
“She sure did. I had to get her permission to take your hand before I came to get you.”
I close my eyes as the Texan drawl washes over me. I nearly collapse as I open them and find Cam leaning in the doorway. My mom grabs my arm and holds me up. Cam is in motion before I can steady myself.
He tugs me into his big, strong arms and kisses me senseless as tears spill from my eyes. Stupid pregnancy hormones. I cling to him as if he might disappear.
“Hey, baby. It’s good to see you too,” he breathes against my lips.
I gasp as I feel two strong kicks in my womb. They must know their daddy is here. Cam places his hand on my belly and there’s another kick.
He laughs and gives me the biggest smile. “That had to hurt. You okay?”
“Yeah, I’m perfect. I’m used to the abuse.”
“They don’t mean it. Consider them love taps.”
“You carry these boxers and then say that.” I pull a face at him right as they start kicking and moving again.
Cam reaches up and fingers a lock of my fading auburn hair. I can’t wait to have someone fix it back to my natural color. I want to wash away all traces of what happened with Dez.
“You’re gorgeous. I never want to be away from you this long ever again.”
“The feeling is mutual.”
He places his forehead to mine and begins to sway us to a rhythm of our own. We are completely lost in each other as we stand here.
“Hello, I am Symphony. Everyone calls me Sim. Come with me, I will show you to your room.
“I think Maribel and her baseball player are going to be occupied for a while. I can keep you company. It is almost my practice hour. If you like classical music, you can listen to me play.¿Preferirías que hable español?” I hear Sim say to my mom.
“I would love to listen to you play. English is just fine. It’s very nice to meet you, Sim,” my mother replies.
I can’t pull my attention away from Cam. He takes my lips in another searing kiss. This time, he allows his big hands to roam my back and glide down to squeeze my ass.
“Cam,” I moan into his mouth.
“I need you.”
I whimper and nod. He lifts me effortlessly, huge belly and all, and walks me over to the bed. I push all the baby clothes I had been folding to the floor. I’ll just have to rewash them later.
I can’t get enough of his hungry kisses. He devours me like he’ll never get to kiss me again. I arch my back and moan as he starts a trail of kisses down my neck.
Needing his touch more than ever, I reach for the hem of my shirt and tug it off. Cam groans deeply and cups my breasts as he kisses the tops of them.
I marvel at how my breasts have gotten huge with the pregnancy, but they seem so small in his massive palms. It’s like his touch and kisses shoot sparks through me. My skin is humming from his attention.
Reaching behind me, he releases my bra and gently pulls it from my shoulders. He seems too far away when he moves to peel my leggings off my legs.
My face heats with embarrassment as my big-ass panties and unkept bush beneath them are exposed. I didn’t know he was coming. I would have tried to do something.
“Cam, wait,” I squeal when he drops to his knees, ready to bury his face between my thighs.
He looks at me in confusion. His eyes filled with so much lust. I prop up on my elbow to try to see down my body.
