Page 153 of Three Pucks and a Baby

“It’s a romantic trip before the baby comes,” Vivian replied.

Theo nodded. “I’m down for that.”

“Same,” I replied.

“Since it’s usually just a couple on a babymoon, I thought we could all go away together, but I could devote a day to each of you for some one-on-one time.” With a pointed look, she added, “You know how Dr. Zeller always says how important it is for us as a poly couple to take one-on-one time for each other.”

“Wouldn’t it be easier for each of us to take you away for a weekend?” Theo asked.

Vivian smiled. “That sounds perfect, but I don’t want to take away your PTO days now. You’ll need them when the baby comes.”

“I think we can work with those parameters,” Bennett said.

“Really?”

He nodded. “What did you have in mind for our dates?”

Vivian’s shy smile sent my heartbeat thrumming wildly in my chest. “Well, I was going to leave that up to you guys. I like the idea of you surprising me like you did on our first date.”

Groaning, I said, “Oh, there’s no pressure there at all.”

She playfully smacked my arm. “As romantic as you are, you won’t have a problem.”

With a grin, Bennett said, “Considering those two jackasses only took you to the arena, it doesn’t sound like the bar is too high.”

“We’ve done more romantic things than that,” Theo replied with a scowl.

Vivian rubbed his arm. “That’s true. They brought me roses on our second date.”

“And multiple orgasms,” I added.

She laughed. “That is very true.”

Bennett snorted. “Okay then. What romantic location should we be thinking about?”

“How about somewhere tropical?” Theo suggested.

“As alluring as that sounds, I don’t think I should be flying too far. Also, I have to be careful of blood clots with long road trips,” Vivian replied.

Creasing his brows, Theo said, “With those parameters, we’re left with the Mass coast.”

“Pretty much.”

Snorting, I replied, “I thought you said you wanted somewhere romantic.”

As Vivian giggled, Bennett argued, “The coast isn’t a complete shit hole.”

Theo nodded. “Our beach house on Martha’s Vineyard is totally romantic. Some of my parents' buddies even got married there.”

“Of course, you have a posh beach house,” Vivian mused.

“Had,” he replied with a smirk. “Considering how things went down with my parents, it’s no longer any part of mine.”

With a curious look, Bennett asked, “Do you still have the keys and codes?”

Theo’s dark brows furrowed. “Yeah, why?”

“We should crash it for the weekend.”
