Lucy – I made a mistake three years ago but gained an eternal love
Sleeping with my best friend’s brother—younger brother—was not something I planned to do and getting pregnant definitely didn’t fit with my plans, but I will never regret keeping Liam. He’s the most important thing in my life, and I’ll do anything to protect him. His childhood won’t be anything like mine, and if that requires me to keep him secret from his father, in order to keep him from mine, so he never feels like he wasn’t wanted, I’ll do it. Except his father has other plans it seems. It makes my heart race to know that Jayden came looking for me, but if he can’t accept and love Liam like I do, then there’s no hope for us. I want to be a family, but he’s just learnt about our son, and he doesn’t have a clue what it means to be a parent. Liam’s my priority, always…even when I want to put myself first whenever Jayden touches me, showing me that he’s really not as young as I keep insisting on.
Jayden – I made a mistake three years ago and lost the love of my life
Sleeping with my sister’s best friend was the greatest moment of my life, until she left town for college without speaking to me again, and I had to wait three long years to find her back. I know she said I was too young to really love her, but I wasn’t, and now, I’m going to prove that to her. I may still be young, but I know what I want and that’s Lucy. So when I find more than just her, I’m ready to accept her son as mine, but the second I lay eyes on him, I know he is mine and nothing is going to keep me away from them. Not even her insistence that my parents can’t know about Liam yet will scare me off. Learning it’s not so much about keeping him from my parents as it about her father has me agreeing to whatever necessary to show her that she is and always has been everything to me—and that now includes Liam. I’ll never give up on us and it’s time for her to see that I’m not a boy with a crush but a man in love with his family.
