Blair’s mom looked down at Nolan. “And you—thank you so much for getting ice cream with us tonight. Maybe sometime soon, if your mommy and Blair say it’s okay, you could have a sleepover at our house.”

Erin laughed and jokingly pushed him toward Blair’s parents. “You can have him anytime you want.”

“Yay!” Nolan did a little dance that made everyone laugh. “Can Moon sleep in my bed?”

“Of course he can,” Blair’s dad bent down and gave Nolan a high five before standing to give hugs to both Blair and Erin.

When Blair hugged her mom, she squeezed her extra tight and whispered in her ear. “That one’s a keeper. You better not break her heart.”

“I don’t plan on it.”

As soon as Blair shut the door and turned around, she noticed Nolan staring at her. “Bear, are you sleeping over?”

“I am.” Blair winked at Erin, who looked so fucking hot when her face turned red in embarrassment. She really couldn’t wait to rip that woman’s clothes off and make love to her all night.

Nolan’s eyes went wide and his face lit up. “Can weallhave a sleepover in Mommy’s room? Please!”

“Oh, honey, I don’t know if tonight is the best night for that,” Erin said. “We have work tomorrow and you have school. We all need sleep.”

Or something like that, Blair thought to herself, her body heating up just at the thought.

Nolan looked from Erin to Blair and pushed his bottom lip into a pout as he stared up at her.Shit.How was Blair supposed to resist those puppy dog eyes? “I think a family sleepover sounds great.”

“Really?” Nolan squealed as he bounced up and down.

“Yeah, really?” Erin repeated, not sounding nearly as excited.

Blair walked up to Erin and put a hand on her back that she slowly moved down to her ass. “Don’t worry,” she whispered. “We have plenty of nights ahead of us for you to keep me up. I promise I’ll make it up to you.”

Erin rubbed her nose against Blair’s, a mischievous smile on her face. “You better.”

Blair squeezed Erin’s ass. “Don’t worry. We have forever.”

The smile on Erin’s face grew bigger than Blair had ever seen it. “We sure do.”

Epilogue

Erin

“Happy two-year anniversary, babe.”

“Has it really only been two years? It feels like so much longer,” Erin joked. The truth was, the time with Blair had flown by, but at the same time, she couldn’t remember what her life was like without Blair at this point.

Blair pushed her side against Erin’s from where they sat hand in hand at their favorite park. “That’s only because you made me wait formonthsto finally be your girlfriend.”

“Whatever.” Erin rolled her eyes and laid her head on Blair’s shoulder.

Somewhere in the distance, Nolan was playing on the playground with Blair’s parents, who had become like grandparents to him. It was so nice to have people close by that Nolan was comfortable with who could take him so she and Blair could have some alone time. And they took full advantage of that alone time. Her body buzzed just thinking about everything they had done two nights ago when Nolan had a sleepover with Blair’s parents.

“So, I have something for you,” Blair said, suddenly sounding nervous.

“What is it?” Erin sat up as Blair rummaged through her backpack.

After a minute, she pulled out a stack of papers and handed them to Erin. “This is a complete breakdown of how to do name changes in Pennsylvania for both adults and kids. That way, we can make sure we do it as quickly as possible.”

As quickly as possible? Erin and Blair had talked about both Erin and Nolan taking her last name, but she assumed that would happen after they got married and did a second parent adoption. “Did I miss something? Why the sudden rush?”

Blair shook her head. “Sorry. When I said as quickly as possible, I didn’t mean right now. I meant after our wedding.”
