Chapter 118: The Future

“Are you two going to get married?” Olivia asked, perking up and wide awake suddenly Logan quickly dropped Serena’s hand. They’d been talking about plans to be parents and be in a relationship, but Serena had said she wanted to take things very slow. Logan didn’t want to be the first to answer Olivia’s question and say something that offended or upset Serena. “Olivia, Logan and I are taking things one step at a time,” Serena explained. “You mean ‘daddy,” Olivia corrected. Serena laughed and nodded. Logan chuckled too, catching Serena’s eyes. She seemed a little uncomfortable at the moment, trying to think of the best answer.

Logan nodded to her, waiting to hear what she would say. He was interested in what she thought as well. Their future was wide open and they’d only just scratched the surface of what they could be. “I think that could happen,” Serena said. “If everything goes the way we want them

She looked over at Logan. He felt a swell in his chest, hopeful that their relationship could get to that point. He hadn’t fully confessed his feelings for Serena, only telling her how much he cared about her.

He didn’t tell her that he loved her or that he wanted to be with her in every way that mattered. He’d had to keep it as basic as possible to not overwhelm her or scare her off.

Logan stretched and brought the empty wine glasses to the sink. He was contemplating where he could take Serena on a real date at some point. She walked him to the door. “Thank you for tonight,” Serena said. She reached out and took his hand in hers, squeezing his fingers. Logan smiled, raising his other hand and tucking her hair behind her ears. He leaned in, kissing her forehead. “Thank you,” Logan said. “Tonight I actually felt like I was their father, for once.” “Well, you should start feeling
