Riley's POV
The space between Caleb and me disappears as I lean closer, ready to press my lips against his in gratitude for everything he just shared with me. His eyes flutter closed as he mirrors my movement, leaning forward to meet me halfway.
The bedroom door crashes open without warning.
"Daddy! Is mo..." Felix's voice fills the room as he charges through like a tiny hurricane.
Caleb and I spring apart instantly, the spell broken. We scramble to our feet and step out of the closet, trying to look casual despite the heat still burning between us.
Felix spots us immediately and rushes past Caleb straight into my arms. "Mommy! You're awake! Are you feeling okay?"
His wide eyes search my face with such genuine concern that my heart melts completely.
The moment feels surreal after what just happened with Caleb, but I push those thoughts aside. "I'm feeling fine, sweetie." I smile down at my son and pull him closer, squeezing him tight.
