Logan raises his eyebrows. "Anything, eh?"
"Within reason," I say from the bed. "Although I seem to have lost a lot of my sense of reason since we got here."
"Well, when you put it like that, how can I say no?” He closes his laptop and licks his lips with a smile.
I take hold of the silk robe and am about to pull it apart to reveal my three gorgeous mounds, one belly and two breasts, when a knock comes at the door.
"We will have to put this on pause," Logan says. "I ordered room service for us."
"Now, you are speaking my language!" I groan. "I’m starving!"
Logan chuckles and shakes his head as he goes to the door. I am glad I didn’t pull my robe apart as the young man wheels in a metal cart with cloches-covered plates. The aroma is intoxicating, and I feel my mouth watering. I don’t even care what is on the plates. I am going to devour it all!
The young man leaves, and Logan wheels the cart over toward the bed.
"Shall we eat in bed?" Logan asks.
"You certainly know how to woo a woman," I say. "Apregnantwoman."
I shift up on the bed and let Logan serve me some food. He places the plates on the bed, and I’m excited when he pulls more from the shelf within the diner cart. He removes the cloches and places them back on the cart.
There are giant crab legs, lobster tails, scallops, and salmon, all accompanied by sides of steamed broccoli and asparagus. And that’s only the start! There are truffle fries, wild mushroom risotto, eggplant parmesan, artichokes, and some delicious-smelling soup. There is a lot to choose from, but only small bites of each.
I look at Logan with admiration. He knows how to take care of me in many ways, but this might have been the most impressive. As soon as I came back to the room, I wanted to make love to him, but he must have known I would be hungry. Now, the food is all I can think about.
Logan hands me a pair of tongs, and I start to add small pieces of everything to my plate. I place a small towel on top of my baby bump and balance the plate on top of that. I look down at my food, and for a moment, I forget about the life growing inside my belly. For a moment, I forget about everything in the world.
“Hey, don’t wait for me,” Logan says. “I’m going to load up my plate, but you need to get started. I don’t want you fainting on me.”
“Do I really look that bad?”
Logan smiles and kneels on the bed. “No, you don’t. You are glowing, Teal. And since you came back from that massage, you look stress-free.”
“I have to admit that she did have magical hands.”
Logan stops loading his plate, a spoonful of ravioli halfway there. “Mmm, there’s an image I’m not going to forget in a hurry.”
“Maybe we can recreate it after some food. I can lie on my belly with some pillows around to prop me up, and you can pretend to be a hot, young Swedish woman. Now, before we go any further, I want to be sure you can do the accent.”
Logan continues loading his plate. “I would love to do the accent for you, but my character is actually a silent, hot, young Swedish masseuse. I lost my tongue in a very unfortunate massage table accident.”
“Oh, gosh!” I gasp. “That sounds awful. Well, I shall have to pay attention to your hands then and not your voice. Although from how you have touched me in the past, I am not sure how much I can pay attention before I lose my mind.”
Logan moves up the bed to sit beside me with his plate of food. “How about we get into the hot tub after this, and I massage your shoulders?”
“Now, that is something I can get behind. Or in? You did pick a great spot. The view is amazing out there! The red rocks are gorgeous.”
“Youare gorgeous,” Logan says. “I would much rather look at you than anything or anyone else.”
I feel the emotions rise in me, and I have to stop eating to grab a napkin from the bed to wipe my eyes. “Oh, it’s so silly. These emotions are running havoc inside of me. I am a mess.”
Logan slides closer, puts down his plate, and puts an arm around me. “Hey, come here. I think you are wonderful, and I don’t care if you are a mess. You are growing a life inside of you, and that is amazing. You can be as emotional as you want.”
I lean my head on Logan’s shoulder. “It’s always good emotions. When I’m with you, it’s always a great emotion.”
“I love you, Teal. I never was one to believe that everything happens for a reason or that you are fated to walk a certain path. I do not know what our relationship means, but it was not orthodox, was it? I cannot say that all of this happened for a reason, but I am glad that it did happen.”
"I am, too,” I gush. “And I love you so much. My life is perfect with you around.”
