“Everything is great! Did Rob get you the paperwork I faxed over?” Grace asked just as Rob sailed in with the paperwork in hand.

Rob flashed Fallon a grin as she took the paperwork quickly. “Yes ma’am. What am I looking at?” she asked, trying to read quickly.

“The menu and the guest seating. I think I have it all right, but I wanted you to sign off on it before I moved forward. I also need the pictures from the campaign, do you have those yet?”

“Not yet. The shoot is this weekend, and they should have them ready and printed in the wall size you asked for by Friday at the latest.”

“Awesome, you are the best. What do you think of the menu?”

Fallon finished reading it and smiled. “I think it is perfect, not that I expected anything less from you.”

Grace giggled. “Stop Fallon! You are making me blush!”

“Thanks so much Grace. You’re doing amazing.”

“Thanks, I can’t wait to get it all set up. I think this will be my second favorite party I’ve planned.”

Fallon laughed. “The first being Elli’s birthday?”

“Yes! That was a masterpiece!”

Fallon couldn’t agree more. Fallon still got chills every time she thought back to the way she felt when she walked into the Belmont. It was as if she was taken back to the 1800s and she was watching Mr. Darcy and Ms. Elizabeth dance the night away. It was magnificent.

“It sure was,” Fallon agreed.

Grace laughed before saying, “So I can’t wait to see you! I’ll be in touch.”

“Great! Bye Grace.”

Fallon hung up the phone and glanced back down at the menu. It was spectacular and like she said, she didn’t expect anything else. If Grace was anything, she was classy as hell and Fallon couldn’t have been more excited about the party. Fallon placed the paperwork in the party file and got up, stretching her legs. She glanced down at the clock on her computer and saw that it was time to go.

Fallon couldn’t wait to get home. She was excited to make dinner for Lucas, Aiden, and Audrey. She was also excited to play with all her new stuff that Lucas has spoiled her with. As she slid on her shoes, the grin stayed in place on her face. Fallon hadn’t been this happy in a very long time and it started and ended with two special guys.

Her guys.

Lucas and Aiden.

Chapter 32

Fallon lay across Lucas’ chest in complete bliss.

As the evening replayed though her head, she cuddled closer to Lucas, running her bare foot up and down his leg. Lucas’ hand stayed in place on her ass while she listened to his breathing. It had been an amazing evening and she could only pray that all her nights ended this way. When she arrived home from work, she was greeted with luscious kisses from Lucas and sweet, loving ones from Aiden. After changing into something a little more cooking friendly, she went into the kitchen to get everything ready for her lasagna.

Lucas was right next to her as she put together dinner. He kept touching her and trying to help whenever she would allow him. Fallon wanted him to relax, hang out, but of course, anytime they were in a room together they couldn’t keep their hands off each other. She had missed him all day, and when he gave her that sly, ‘I want you’ grin, she was hot all over and didn’t have the heart to kick him out the kitchen.

Once Fallon had everything in the oven, she and Lucas helped Aiden with his homework. Lucas surprised her with his first-grade knowledge and his wit. He was sweet and tentative to Aiden. It was like watching a different man. He was acting so at ease, so at home, which in a way he was. She loved having him in her home and she couldn’t have felt more complete with him there.

After dinner, they did dishes together and then watched some TV with Aiden before putting him to bed. Once Aiden was tucked in, they headed into Fallon’s room where they were now. Fallon lay beside him, basking in the love that he was giving her. It was the perfect evening, and Fallon couldn’t have been happier. The only thing that bothered her was that Audrey hadn’t been home all night. Lucas had told her about their fight and Fallon was worried. When she called Audrey, she didn’t answer, so Fallon sent her a quick text, and Audrey answered saying she needed time to herself, that she was fine.

“Guess what Aiden did while we waited for you this afternoon,” Lucas said, bringing her away from her thoughts of Audrey.

Fallon looked up, running her hand up his stomach to his chest where it rested as she said, “What’s that?”

“Aiden started to teach me how to read.”

A slow smile went across Fallon’s face as she brought her hand from his chest to his cheek. “You told him?”

Lucas nodded. “Kid’s smarter than the average bear.”

Fallon giggled. “He sure is. Are you okay?” She asked. She knew how embarrassed he got about his dyslexia.

“Yup. Just fine. The two people I care for know. I have nothing to hide anymore. This is me,” he said kissing her forehead.

“Good, you shouldn’t hide anything.”

Lucas smiled before placing another kiss on her head. He leaned his head against hers, taking a deep breath in. As Fallon listened to his heartbeat, she had a small, content smile on her face. Lucas’ hand shifted from her ass to her inner thigh and Fallon rolled her eyes.

“Aiden is home,” she said simply.

Lucas chuckled. “He is in bed, plus Daddy needs Mommy.”

Fallon giggled. “No way.”
