Mom and Dad should be here soon to meet their first grandson. I called Lana’s parents, and they have a flight out tomorrow. They will see us when we are discharged from the hospital.
Lana blinks at me and smiles as she watches me cuddle up with the little guy.
“Hey, cowboy,” she says, her voice thick with sleep.
“Hey, yourself, Momma.”
She holds her arms out for him, and I pass him over. She whispers to him as she feeds him. She’s a natural at this. It’s second nature to her.
“How did you get so good at this?” I ask, watching in awe.
“Lots of reading and hoping for the best. You’ll get there. I’ve had time to get to know him. You’ve only just met. Give it a few days, and you’ll be a natural.”
Mom and Dad show up a short while later and hug and kiss both of us before giving William lots of love and cuddles. There is no doubt this kid is going to be adored by everyone in the family. They stay for about an hour until Lana finally starts to fall asleep, and I walk them out. I don’t want to leave too long, even though the nurses and staff are taking care of him.
“He’s adorable, Tristan. I’m so happy for you both,” Mom says as she pulls me into a tight embrace.
Dad gives me a few words of encouragement, pulls me into a hug, and claps his hand on my back.
Chapter 25
Lana
Moving day. I thought it would never get here. I had to take William back to Massachusetts with me so I could finish getting everything in order, and it was tough for Tristan to let us go. He’s always been protective of me, but around William, he’s a whole different person. He’s going to be a good dad to him.
Since Simone had that article printed, I have been receiving offers non-stop for remodeling work, and Eloise has been good about filtering things to me that won’t take me too far from home. I’m so thankful to have her in my corner. I’m also lucky she understood when I told her I wanted to branch off and start my own company.
It’s time, and she knew it. She has been great at helping me get things up and running so I can work out of the office space in my new house. Eloise has sent a few clients my way to help me out, and I will officially be open for business in another two months. No way I’m rushing through spending time with my little man.
“Babe, you about ready to leave?” Tristan asks as he walks into the empty bedroom.
I have William in my arms as I look around, remembering the times I spent here. I can’t believe how much my life has changed in such a short time.
“I can’t believe I’m moving out to Wyoming. God, if you would have told me ten years ago our lives would have ended up like this, I would never have believed it.”
He smirks and plants a gentle kiss on my lips. “I’m the luckiest man in the world that you were willing to come to me. I know I am, and I want you to know how much I love you and our little man.”
I put him down in his car seat as Tristan pulls me against him and drops his lips to mine for a searing kiss. He slides his tongue along the seam of my lips, and I open for him, giving him what he wants. He presses me against the wall, holding my hands above me.
“How much time do you think we have?” he asks, grinding into me.
I gasp and hum my appreciation as his rigid length digs into my stomach. “Probably only five minutes or so. Dad texted me, saying they’re close.” I press my hips against his as he drops his lips to my neck. “Besides, wouldn’t you much rather fuck me in our new bed, which will be in our new home when we arrive in a few hours? It would be much nicer than against a wall.”
“Says who? Against the wall is much more fun. It’s risky, dirty, and possibly messy.” He kisses a trail down my neck to my covered breasts, and as if William can sense his mom and dad are about to have some grown-up fun, he lets out a wail. Tristan and I jump apart, and he scoops him up into his arms.
“Little man, you gotta let Momma and me have a little bit of fun,” he chastises the little boy quietly. “Don’t you want a baby sister or brother?”
“Hold it right there, buddy. He’s more than enough for right now,” I say, admiring my two handsome men.
A few more hours and everything will be right.

The flight was long and bumpy. William did well for the first few hours, sleeping through everything, but then he woke up and demanded to be heard. I spent the last two hours of the flight walking up and down the aisles, trying to calm him, and when we weren’t walking, I was trying to feed him. Neither worked to calm him.
By the time we landed, he was so exhausted that he slept the whole ride to Grammy and Grampy’s. When we told Liz and John we wanted to get William’s room set up, they jumped at the chance to watch him. This is going to be the first time he’s not with me, and I’m anxious about it.
I give him a million kisses until, finally, he gets annoyed and starts moving his arms around to get away from me.
