"It’s still about an eight I have a really bad headache"

She typed it into the little co for the pain? You’re due for solanced up atout on her face Now that CC had pointed it out, I started to think maybe Lynn did like me I wish she wouldn’t make it so noticeable She was nice to look at – one of those pretty, girl next door types; nothing over the top about her She was a little shorter than CC and had those doe eyes that made her look innocent Her blonde hair was pixie styled, and I hate short hair Her only really good feature was her tits She was nothing corab you so" She rolled her cart out of the roo me feed our son and a sense of relief washed over est week of my life My family is complete; we’delse that was thrown at us

When Lynn walked back in with the hed in relief I knew Hunter would catch on to what I was doing eventually, but I was going to hold out as long as I could I felt like the worst mother in the world, I knew the baby wouldn’t understand but it was really bothering o; this will probably make you sleepy" Lynn explained to me while she injected the medicine into my IV

Even better "Thanks"

She threw the trash in the bin, smiled over at Hunter who smiled back at her, then she left the room There was an uncomfortable quietness that fell between us ere alone

Hunter placed the bottle on the tray table, lifted the baby to his shoulder and started burping him He peered over at ht I knew it before, but the feeling that I had in thathi his six foot two frame, two hundred and thirty pounds of solid muscle with tattoos everywhere, had me in tears

"CC, what’s the matter?" he asked, sorrow deeply set in his eyes

He smirked at me, "Is that the only reason?"

"You haven’t even seen hi the baby, I couldn’t bring myself to look down at him I didn’t trust my voice so I just shook my head

Hunter took a deep breath, reached behind him and pulled his shirt off, then threw it on top of the diaper bag Seeing hi there in a black wife beater, my favorite pair of plaid shorts and his black Yankees hat, I blushed I would have thought I’d be over that by now Maybe I never will be; he was gorgeous His eyes were my favorite; they’re like the ocean You could see every e Every brainstor the sand; he alwayshis heart was saying

Very carefully, he shifted us over in the bed just a little so he was able to lay on his side with us "CC, I know this is hard for you, but babe you need to do it He’s a part of you, of us I know you probably feel like all this is your fault I felt like that too, I should have protected the both of you that day, but there wasn’t anything anyone could do"
