Chapter 28
TWENTY-EIGHT
MASE
“I’m sorry, did you say twins?”
“Ye-yes, sir.” The doctor nods frantically.
“Like, two of them?” My excitement is spilling over.
“Exactly.”
My mouth falls open, and I gape at Summer. She chews into her bottom lip, but you can’t miss the laugh she’s fighting to hide as my eyes drop to her stomach.
“There’s two in there?” God knows how; she’s so small, there’s barely a bump at all.
The doctor points to the screen again, where two small beans float around. “Definitely two.”
“Can you tell the sex yet?” Summer asks, and the doctor shakes his head.
“They can’t tell the sex until around four months, beautiful.” I smile brightly at her. Of course I know all the facts about babies and pregnant women. I’ve witnessed this so many times but always from the outside looking in. I’m so fucking elated I’m almost lost for words.
“We’re having twins,” I say again.
“You are, Mr. Campbell, and they’re perfectly healthy up to now. We will keep a close eye on babies and mom, but all is going well so far,” he says, pulling the gloves from his hands and throwing them in the trash.
And they’ll be staying that way if I have anything to do with it. Summer and our babies are my priorities.
“I just can’t fucking believe it, a family of our own,” I rasp. Summer entwines her fingers with mine, and I bring them to my lips, covering them in kisses along with a thousand promises to be the man she deserves, the one I want to be.
Myself.
