again.
         “Talk to him, Rush,” I said , watching the most beautiful sight I’d ever seen. Rush fell down to his knees so that he was closer to my belly.
         “Hey you,” he said and the baby immediately moved just under Rush’s hand. He jerked his head up and looked at me with an excited grin. “He hears me,” he said with wonder in his voice.
        I nodded. “Yes, he does. Talk to him.”
       “So how is it in there? Is mommy’s tummy as cute on the inside as it is on the outside?”
       I giggled and he kicked.
       “I figured it was. You got lucky. Mommy’s beautiful but you’ll see that soon enough. We’ll be the two luckiest guys on the planet.”
        He moved again, this time with less force.
         “You be good in there. We’re getting things ready for you out here . Enjoy that cozy spot for now.”
         Rush ran his hands over my tummy and then looked up at me. “He’s really in there. He can hear us.”
        I laughed and nodded. “I thought I’d been feeling him for awhile now but nothing like this.”
         “God, Blaire, that is amazing,” Rush said before pressing a kiss to my stomach and standing up.
        “It is, isn’t it?” I replied, still marveling at how this was mine. This man in front of me and the life inside me.
        “Tell me when he does it again. I want to feel,” Rush said , reaching down to take my hand in his.
        We walked back up the stairs together holding hands.

         It had been awhile since I’d stepped into my dad’s Beverly Hills home. The last time I’d visited, I had stayed drunk most of the time and partied with my dad. This would be a very different visit. I wasn’t that guy anymore. I set Blaire’s suitcase down in the bedroom my dad called mine. It was where I’d always slept when I came to visit him.
         “This is just... wow,” Blaire said walking in behind me. She’d been stopping and taking in the place since we’d walked in the front door. Luckily , Nan and Kiro hadn’t been here to greet us. I wanted time to get Blaire settled in. The plane ride had been long and I could see the exhaustion on her face.
          “You’ll learn rock legends are a bit on the showy side. They like to flaunt their s uccess with things,” I explained.
         “I can see that. They sure have done a good job in flaunting with this place,” she said , walking over to the bed and then realizing it was too high for her. Glancing over her shoulder she frowned at me. “How the heck am I’m gonna be able to get on this thing?”
         I couldn’t keep from laughing. She looked so damn perplexed. “I’ll get you a little stool.”
         Blaire grinned and shook her head. “That’s just crazy. So, if I wanted to lay down now... how might I go about it?”
         I walked over to her and put both my hands on her expanding waist then picked her up and put her on the bed. “That way,” I replied and sat down beside her before throwing a leg over both of hers and laying her back. “If you didn’t look so tired we’d test this thing out,” I teased.
         She covered her mouth as she yawned and gave me a sleepy smile.  “I can stay awake,” she assured me and turned her chest toward mine.
     It was tempting but I knew her body needed rest. I pressed a kiss to her nose. “I’m sure you could, sweet Blaire. But right now all I want to do is massage your feet and calves while you relax and fall asleep.”
         Her eyes got that pleased glow. “Oh , would you? They feel so stiff after the flight.”
         “Go lay your head on the pillow and I’ll get rid of these shoes , which by the way, are not exactly good walking footwear for a pregnant woman. You should have worn tennis shoes, not heels.”
         Blaire yawned again and settled back on the pillow with a sigh. “I know. I just didn’t want to arrive at LAX looking
