cares about mine.”
    “Makes a difference, doesn’t it?” Gina asked.
    “Big difference. With Steve, I was always worried that I was doing everything right, pleasing him in all of the ways he wanted me to. It was all about him—his needs and wants. Never about me and what I wanted. But with Tom, it’s different.” I smiled, remembering last night.
    “I know that look,” Gina said. “Come on. Tell me.”
    “I’m half afraid to. I don’t want to jinx it. I want to feel that way again.”
    “Are you serious?” Gina asked. “It was that good?”
    “It’s was better than good. It was amazing. If I could live on orgasms like I had last night, I’d spend my entire life having sex!”
    We laughed.
    “I’ve never felt that way before. I didn’t know I could feel that way. My body just trembled. It was like I was having my own personal earthquake. God, I had no idea what I’d been missing all of these years. Steve really was a lousy lay!”
    Gina smiled. “I’m so happy for you. And for Tom, too. I still can’t believe the two of you got together. And now that you are, it seems like you were always meant to be. Does that make sense?”
    I nodded. “Completely.”
    “Are we still on for dinner later?”
    “Yep.”
    “So another hot night?” Gina asked.
    I smiled. “I swear I feel like I’m 17 again. I’m actually a little sore.”
    Gina laughed. “But at least it’s a good sore, if there is such a thing.”
    The tea kettle whistled and I filled Gina’s mug. “So what did you, Mike, and Jack do last night?”
    “After the pizza, we watched a movie.”
    “Which one?”
    “An oldie but goodie. Jaws .”
    I sipped my coffee. “God, I haven’t seen that in years.”
    “Me, neither,” Gina said. “Turned out Mike had it and Jack had never seen it, so we watched it together. I actually fell asleep. I’ve been so tired lately.”
    “I remember being tired with Chloe. It got better in the second trimester, but I was whipped for the first three months. Did you tell Jack about the baby?”
    Gina laughed. “Yes. He made us promise not to put the baby in the room next to him. Said he had to put up with his sister crying at his Mom’s.”
    I laughed. “Gotta love that kid.”
    “Yeah. He’s pretty neat. He also put in a request for a boy. He wants a brother. Said girls are too fussy and cry all the time. He figured boys aren’t like that.”
    I laughed. “Did you tell him that’s already been decided?”
    Gina shook her head. “I figured that’s a conversation for Mike to have.”
    “What do you want?” I asked.
    Gina waved her hand. “When I was going to have a child on my own through insemination, I wanted a girl. I thought it would be easier. But now that I got pregnant the old-fashioned way and the dad is in the picture, the baby’s sex doesn’t matter to me. Just as long as it’s healthy.”
    “So are you going to find out the sex?”
    Gina sipped her tea. “I haven’t decided yet. I kind of want to know but Mike doesn’t. He said it doesn’t matter if it’s a girl or a boy and finding out at the end gives us something to look forward to. I, on the other hand, am a planner. I’d like to know what I’m having so I can plan the nursery accordingly. So, I guess we’ll have to come to some sort of compromise.”
    I laughed. “Something tells me you’ll find out.”
    “What? Don’t think I’m a great compromiser?”
    “Well, you usually win your cases.”

    I had made reservations at a ritzy place that overlooked the river. I’m more of a meat and potatoes guy, but I wanted to splurge on Sue. Plus, I figured we could celebrate Gina moving back home.
    When I picked up Sue, she was wearing a black dress with spaghetti straps that made my jaw drop. Her hair was in a loose bun on top of her head and strands fell to her shoulders. She looked so incredibly sexy.
    “You look great,” I said. “I love your dress.”
    She
