Family Matters

Father, Son Bonding Time

Miles POV

I was walking down the hall upstairs by the bedrooms when Max asked me to stop in his room

"Hey what's up buddy?" I said sitting on his bed

"Dad there's this girl at school and she's really pretty."

"What about her?"

"She's really nice to me and she always likes to sit with me."

"Let me guess...she has a crush on you."

"I think so."

"What's this girls name and what does she look like?"

"Well her name is Isabella and she had brown hair and she wears glasses like Mommy's."

"Well she sounds very pretty."

"Yea."

"Hey Max... has your mom talked to you about the baby much?"

By now Maya was five months pregnant and very tired except for when she wants to sleep with me, then she's got all the energy in the world.

"Yeah. Mommy told me that she's having a boy."

"How do you feel about that?" I asked him

"I don't know. I like the way that we are now. I like you and me spending time together the baby will ruin that!" Max says getting a sad look on his face

Out of the corner of my eye, I can see Maya standing in the doorway with a hand on her stomach

"Even though your mother and I will be spending a lot of time with the new baby, I will still make time everyday to spend it with you I am always going to love you Max."

I hugged Max and he put his arms around me. I could hear Maya's phone snap and I knew that she was taking a picture

I got up and left the room

"That was very sweet Miles." Maya said following me down the stairs

"Well he's my son and I love him." I said helping Maya down the last couple of stairs

"I wish that we had met when I met Cam, we could have started a family earlier in life." Maya said

"Well like they say, everything happens for a reason.

I put my arm around Maya and walk into the living room
