He pulled back, smiled and chuckled. “Hey, that has happened plenty of times. But I’ve been fortunate to never tangle with one.”
She nodded and glanced around, wondering when he would forgo the small talk and get down to what was really on his mind.
“What do you need, Savannah?” he finally asked after a few moments of uncomfortable silence.
She met his gaze as emotions swirled within her. “I told you, Durango, that I don’t want or need anything from you. The only reason I’m here is because I felt you should know. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories of kids growing up not knowing who fathered them or men not knowing they fathered a child. I felt it would not have been fair to you or my child for that to happen.”
He raised an eyebrow. “Your child? You do mean our child, don’t you?”
Savannah bit her lip. No, she meant her child. She had begun thinking of this baby as hers ever since she’d taken the at-home pregnancy test. She’d begun thinking of herself as a single mom even before her doctor had confirmed her condition. She had accepted Durango’s role in the creation of her child, but that was as far as it went.
“Understand this, Savannah. I want to be a part in our child’s life.”
She felt a thickness in her throat and felt slightly alarmed. “What kind of a part?”
“Whatever part that belongs to me as its father.”
“But you live here in Montana and I live in Philadelphia. We’re miles apart.”
He nodded and studied her for a moment then said, “Then I guess it will be up to us to close the distance.”
Savannah sighed. “I don’t see how that is possible.”
Durango leaned back in his chair. “I do. There’s only one thing that we can do in this situation.”
Savannah raised an eyebrow. “What?”
Durango met her gaze, smiled confidently and said, “Get married.”
