“Whatcha doin’?” Nathan asks

Shit! We both break apart instantly I didn’t even hear him come into the room Devyn smoothes her shirt down She looks down and sees the tent in my pants and smirks She steps in front of me so I can hide behind her as we face our son

“Hey, buddy,” she says

“Why were youthose funny sounds, Momma?”

Her eyes widen “U silly animal noises”

Holy shit! Does she realize what she just said? Did Nathan catch it?

I know the ives me a look that says, Oh my God, did I really just do that?

I adjust myself and hunch down to the floor “Hey, bud Remember when you asked me if I was your daddy?”

Devyn’s eyes widen Oops, I guess I forgot to tell her about that

Nathan nods “Yep”

“And do you remember what you said to me?”

“That it’s okay if you wanna be my daddy but you have to wuv my mommy”

I suy And do you remember what I said to you after that?”

He bounces on his feet “Uh huh You wuv her”

I glance up at Devyn and she has tears pooling in her eyes as she silently watches our exchange “That’s right I did So are you okay if I’m your daddy?”
