Love for the Librarian

Every time I turn around I swear Dylan is trying to get me pregnant again. It has been two months and he is determined. He said he missed out on the last one with me so he wants the full experience. Not that I can really blame him but when he tries, he tries everywhere. I mean everywhere. The library, the locker room at the high school, our house of course, he even tried the park but I had to draw the line there. I can only go so far with public nudity.

The kids are loving having each other. They have become so close that sometimes it is hard to separate them. Riley really has grown attached to Grace. His nanny Martha said that he was always a really shy boy, but now he is completely open to her. I guess she brings out his best. They seem like they are attached at the hip at times. Which is nice because they will be together for a long time. Since they are the same age they will always be in the same class and Lord knows how long after that. If they are stuck to each other then It is likely that they will go on further to college together. However, I am merely jumping the gun.

I have fallen in love with that little boy. He calls me mommy like I have been here his whole life. When Brittney came back to town she was not happy to see. She quickly left town afterwards. I think she was under the impression that if she came back and her son still needed a mom then she could weasel in. I don’t think she is coming back.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

For once I feel completely happy. Dylan and I are in a great place. We know now that we both were being stupid and should have just talked to each other to begin with. Now we talk about everything. It makes things way easier to discuss. One night when we were having one of our talks we discussed the time that we were apart. We found out that we both had just waited for the other to return. I knew he had dated while I was gone, but he quickly quelled my worries there.

“They weren’t you. I mean to be honest the only reason why I even went on dates is because you wanted me to. Plus they couldn’t understand why I would have breakfast with my ex’s mother every morning. Or why I would call her whenever the thought struck me. But overall they never did anything for me.”

“What about that one girl that asked you to come back to bed?”

“We were on a date that night. I got really drunk and she managed to get me back home, but I passed out on her. I guess she decided to be there when I woke up. However, when I woke up and saw her, you were the only one that I could think about. I called you before she woke up. After she asked me to go back to bed and you hung up on me, I kicked her out. Told her it wasn’t going to work. But I wasn’t with her in the biblical capacity.”

“So no one in four years.”

“No one in four years. I just couldn’t get past you. To be honest I didn’t want to. I knew you were coming back. I just knew it.”

This filled me with joy. Even when I was confused, and didn’t know what was going to happen next he was still there waiting for me. God I love this man. I am glad to see that the love we have, has managed to overcome all the obstacles thrown at it.

Katelyn and Kevin have finally realized that they were supposed to be together. Much of it was Kevin’s insistence of the fact. I tried to convince Katelyn that we could save money and do a double wedding. She quickly shut that down saying that we each need to have the best day of our lives. We deserve it.

Alex and Adel are growing closer too. Adel is going to be kept on as my nanny for both kids. Ryder’s original nanny is deciding to retire. She said she will still see the children around but she needs to have some time to herself. Ryder is a little upset about the prospect but he likes Adel enough.

My mom and Aunt Polly have pretty much left the library to me and Katelyn. They still come in and work from time to time. They are pretty much just helpers at this point. Katelyn and I have completely renovated the library. All modernized. We have a computer lab and it is much more popular than it used to be which keeps us pretty busy. Plus we started programs for tutors, students can volunteer as part of their college applications and help out fellow students as well. Also with the four of us working the library there is always someone here to help out when a student needs help.

Dylan’s family has been really welcoming. I knew his parents before but they are excited to make me a part of the family. Apparently Dylan talked to them about me while I was away. Plus they are pretty excited about having a grandchild. They love Riley, but Grace is theirs too. His mother is right on the train with Dylan that we have more and soon.

We have all moved into my mother’s old house. It feels like we are a real family now. Every night when I cuddle next to Dylan, after we put the kids to sleep, I can’t help but feel happy. This is what I want in my life. A man who loves me and kids I can love. It doesn’t hurt that Dylan and I are absolutely in love.

I would like to say that things are looking up, but it is better than that. Things have finally become perfect.
