Heather walked into the hotel's restaurant and stopped to scan the room. She saw her son when he saw her and called out to her.
"Mom!" his voice carried well in the room and several people glanced up to see what the commotion was about.
Smiled sheepishly and went to greet her son. The babysitter was sitting with him a menu in hand.
"What are we having?" Heather asked as she hugged her baby boy.
"He's insisting on a burger," the sitter said with a humoured smile.
"You had one yesterday," Heather told her son.
"Please Mom," Theon pleaded blinking his dark eyes at her.
Those eyes reminded her of Lucien. They were the same shape. He had his father's mouth too. Heather bent down and kissed her son on the forehead then took a seat beside his.
"No," she said lovingly, "you can have pizza."
"Yay!" Theon cheered.
"Only if you have something healthy for dinner."
