Chapter 284 – A Dad Again
- Kent gets two or three hours of sleep as well, after Fay drifts off. He takes a minute alone with his son, studying his face and his tiny form, but when he feels himself slipping off he lifts both Titus and Dominic from the bed, slipping Titus into his little crate, where the pup promptly curls up into a little sleepy ball of fur. Then Kent swaddles Dominic and place the baby in his little bassinet, wheeling it over to his side of the bed.
- Because as much as Fay insists upon being woken up in two hours? Kent’s absolutely not letting that happen. Fay – she did too much today, and she hasn’t slept in more than thirty-six hours. He’s determined to let her rest, no matter what the consequences.
- His eyes drift shut, but they immediately spring open again a few hours later at the first noise from the baby. Kent groggily blinks his eyes but forces his body into action, sitting up and reaching for the child. Before he can even begin to wail, Kent has Dominic up in his arms and is headed for the door to the room. When the baby really gets started, Kent’s already out in the hallway, gingerly pulling the door shut.
