Finally Finding Out (Completed) ✅

Thirty One

About an hour later, Steph came into the living room wearing a purple satin t-shirt and shorts. “How many sets of pajamas and nightgowns do you have?” Jordan teased.

“This is all I brought along,” she told him.

He felt nervous. The night before had been so spontaneous. He wanted nothing more than to make love to her again, but he wasn’t sure what she wanted. “Well, uh, I guess I’ll go change, too,” he finally stammered.

“Don’t bother,” she said quietly, reaching for his hand. She led him up the stairs and down the hall. She stopped at the room that had been theirs and pulled him in the room
“I love you so much,” he told her, letting her hair trickled through his fingers. “Tonight I’m gonna take my time showing you.”

He seemed to spend hours caressing and kissing her body. Everything he did was slow and gentle and loving. When they finally fell asleep, Steph felt peacefully exhausted. The next morning she expected it all to be a dream that she would wake up from. The suns brightness woke him and he snuggled closer to her burying his face in her shoulder. She nuzzled his chest .They made love again and then got up ready to start their day.
She went out the back door and picked her way down the beach. She walked for a while, then sat down a few feet from the water’s edge. She thought about Jordan as she stared out at the waves. She didn’t like to admit it, but she had fallen head over heels in love with him again but then again she didn’t think she had ever stopped loving him. It was like nothing she had ever felt before, not even with the first time .Maybe maturity had forced them to both to see what they had in front of them. Jordan truly cared about her, and wanted nothing more than to make her happy.
She knew that if she gave the word, he’d marry her in a heartbeat. There was so much more to consider, however. She wanted the twins to get to know their father more. She sighed and stared at the waves.

As Jordan got out of the shower, he heard a loud female voice coming from downstairs. He frowned, wondering who Steph was so upset about. Mom seriously stop she looked beyond frustrated .Jordan is different now. I know he's  the father of my kid’s mom. No I’m done talking about this mom.Yea Yea I know I gotta go I love you She hung the phone up with a slam He thought the whole situation was hysterical. He didn’t care who knew what was going on between them. As a matter of fact, he wanted the whole world to know. He wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. If he could only get her to say yes…

“You know, you really should forgive her,” Jordan remarked as he and Steph drove to Boston. “She didn’t mean anything.”

“The hell she didn’t!” Steph muttered, staring out the window. “She knew exactly what was going on between you and I.”

“But she has reservations about me hurting you and the kids and whether we agree or not that’s her right,” Jordan pointed out.

“True,” she grudgingly admitted. “Mom’s always had something against you, Jordan. I guess I just don’t want to hear her putting you down.”

He reached over and squeezed her hand. “I’m a grownup, Stephi. I can handle it. Besides, she has been there a lot all these years. She cares about you. Once she realizes that all I want is to make you happy, she may actually learn to like me.”

“Don’t count on it,” She mumbled. 

“Damn!” She gasped as they drove through the gates of Jon’s large home.

“Pretty something, isn’t it?” Jordan asked. “A little too much for my taste.”

“Yeah,” she said quietly, uneasiness swirling around in her stomach. 
“Mommy!” A voice screamed as the door opened. Two bodies shoved past Jon to hug their parents.
