Chapter 21

• Liam sat in Ruby's office not doing anything but he refused to return home until she was done, they have been on it for over two hours now and the doctors and nurses were all anxious, he could tell by their constant moving up and down, running in and out of the delivery room, Shouting out orders to each other, he couldn't stand the commotion anymore and decided to wait for Ruby in her office, baby Kristen was sleeping peacefully in the makeshift bed Ruby provided on their arrival, so much happened within the last twenty-four hours that he couldn't keep up, but the icing on the cake was when he almost kissed Ruby, he didn't know what he had been thinking to want to kiss her, he knew he liked her a lot but as friends, he wasn't ready for a relationship yet and even if he wants to, Ruby wasn't ready, he kind of felt stupid for his advances and had meant his apology until she had made him want to do it again, even the universe knew it was all wrong.
• For one, he wasn't ready to settle down and Ruby looks like the commitment kind of lady, also, he didn't want to leave a family behind, it would be too painful if anything should happen to him so staying single and not having offspring will limit the people that gets hurt but then, he had Kristen now, which made the whole point invalid, well guess he was going to have to commit whether he likes it or not because there was no way he was going to give his daughter out, he already considers Kristen his own and that isn't going to change anytime soon, once he gets to the city, he was going to get all the paperwork done and make sure she is legally hi, even if he does find the real mom, he wasn't going to let her have Kristen back because it is obvious she can't do a good job with her, she would be safer being raised in his family, she won't lack a thing, both love affection and materials things are in abundance in his home and he was going to make sure his baby grow up to those just like he did.
• "This is taking longer than I expected,"
