Sean pulled up to the shop and Drew looked out the window.
"Wow, dad."
"Nice, right?"
Drew nodded, "It's great!"
Sean smiled then handed Drew the Tim Horton's bag with their breakfast in it, "Take this. I'll bring in the drinks."
"Okay."
They got out of Sean's truck, walked over to the main door of the shop and Sean unlocked it. "Go on inside, I'll be right there."
Drew walked into the shop and looked around. It was big, it was filled with cars, and Drew felt proud to have Sean as a dad.
Sean was unlocking the bay doors and headed back to the main door. He walked in and said, "Follow me." Drew did what he was told, and Sean walked him to his office. Sean unlocked his office and opened the door. "Here's my office. It's not very exciting."
Drew looked around.
Sean said, "Sit down and relax."
Drew sat in the chair in front of Sean's desk and he put their breakfast down in the middle of it.
Sean took Drew's drink out of the tray and placed it in front of him, "Your hot cocoa."
"Thanks."
Sean sat down and turned on his computer. "Right now, it's going to be boring for you while I get all the jobs in order and check the paperwork. So eat your breakfast. I'll show you the cool stuff after I finish this."
"Okay." Drew took a bite of his breakfast sandwich and heard voices.
"Hey, Sean."
"Morning, Pete." Pete was Sean's right-hand man and his best mechanic. "Pete this is my son, Drew."
Drew turned to look at Pete and Pete said, "Holy sh-" Sean narrowed his eyes and Pete continued, "Uh, cow. He's your clone."
Sean smile and said, "Yeah, I know. He's going to be hanging out with us today. He wanted to see where his dad worked and I thought that maybe you could show him some stuff while you work on the Grichuk car."
Drew looked at Sean and asked, "Randal Grichuk from the Blue Jays?"
Sean nodded, "One and the same."
Drew asked, "Did you meet him?"
"Yes, I did, but he won't be picking up the car when he's done. His wife will be. He's down in Florida for Spring Training."
Drew nodded, "Oh, right."
Pete smiled, "Drew, you can come and join me when you finish breakfast."
"Cool, thanks!"
"You got it."
Sean handed Pete a coffee, "Here you go."
"Thanks, man. How's the day looking?"
Sean nodded, "Busy."
"And you're still waiting to hear from that other famous dude, right?"
Drew said, "Drake?"
Pete laughed, "Yeah."
Sean said, "I think we'll be hearing from him this coming week."
Pete shook his head, "Incredible."
Sean stood up and grabbed a clipboard off the wall, "It's your work that made it possible."
"You're not giving yourself enough credit, boss. You did some nice work on Lowry's car too."
Sean smiled.
"Okay, let me get to it." Pete looked at Drew again and said, "I'll see you in a bit."
Drew nodded, "Okay."
Pete walked out and Sean walked over to his printer. "How's your breakfast?"
"Good. I really missed bacon."
Sean laughed.
Drew spent the first part of the morning watching Pete work on the Grichuk car. Sean smiled as he watched his son fully engrossed with what Pete was doing.
"Hey kiddo, wanna come over and watch your old man do some things?"
"Sure!" He looked at Pete, "Thanks for letting me watch you work."
"No problem."
Drew walked over to Sean and Sean walked him over to a car he was working on.
Sean raised the lift and they stepped under the car.
"So even though you own the place, you still work on cars?"
Sean nodded, "I still love working on cars and I am not much of an office guy."
Drew smiled and said, "Thank you for bringing me today."
"You earned it, kiddo."
Drew shrugged, "I just want you to be proud of me."
Sean smiled, "I'm really proud of how well you're doing in school lately."
After Sean showed Drew how to use some of the tools, he allowed Drew to do some work on the car he was repairing. Nothing too complicated but just enough that Drew felt like he was contributing.
"That's good!" Sean smiled, "You're picking this up pretty quickly."
Drew smiled.
"Now," Sean held out his hand and Drew handed him the wrench. "You're going to use this," Sean gave him a smaller wrench, "And you're going to twist this a few times." He pointed at a bolt. Drew started and Sean said, "Exactly, just like that." When Drew finished, Sean smiled at him, "Good job."
"Thanks."
Drew sat in Sean's office as Sean was finishing up work for the day. After doing some work on his computer, Sean sat back in his chair and said, "All done." Sean shut off his computer and stood up, "So, did you have a good day?"
Drew nodded, "I did. I had fun working on the car with you."
Sean smiled, "Good, I'm glad."
Drew stood up, "This is a really cool place, dad. And the guys are great."
Sean nodded, "Yeah, I think I did a pretty good job hiring this crew."
Drew smiled, "So I'm going to hang out with Aunt Manny and that Jay guy while you and mom are out?"
"Yeah, I hope you don't mind."
Drew shook his head, "I don't mind."
"Okay, good." Sean grabbed Drew's coat to him and grabbed his own.
They walked out of the office and toward the front door of the shop.
"I get that you love Mom and mom loves you. And that you want to spend time alone together."
Sean smiled and asked, "Speaking of love, did you ever find out who left the rose on your locker?" He locked the shop door.
Drew shook his head, "I don't know for sure but I think it was this girl Olivia."
Sean raised an eyebrow, "And you're not interested in her?"
Drew shrugged, "I'm not interested in anyone yet."
Sean smiled, "Well, don't sweat it. It'll happen and when it does, it'll be great, I promise."
Drew nodded, "I hope so."
Emma checked into the hotel and got the room ready for Sean's arrival. She texted him, "Let me know when you're on the way."
Sean looked at his phone and smiled. He typed back, "I just dropped off our son so I should be there in 10 minutes."
Emma checked herself in the mirror and shook her head, "I cannot believe I'm doing this." Her phone buzzed and she read Sean's message. "Okay, I can do this."
About 15 minutes later, Sean keyed into the hotel room and looked around, "Em?"
Emma yelled from the bathroom, "I'm in here. Make yourself comfortable on the bed."
Sean smiled, "Oh, I will." Sean sat on the bed slipped off his work boots and moved up toward the headboard. He lied back and put his hands behind his head. After a few moments, he asked, "Em, what are you doing in there?"
Emma was looking at herself in the mirror and checking the outfit, "I'll be out in a second."
"Okay."
When she opened the door, Sean's mouth dropped, "Um, Emma?"
"Yes, Sean?"
He sat up, "Holy shit."
"It's too much, isn't it..."
Sean shook his head, "No. God, no. I love it."
Emma smiled, "Oh yeah?" She turned around for him.
Sean nodded, "Wow. You look incredible." He looked her up and down, "Those boots are amazing."
"You like?"
He smiled and said, "I love. Just don't stand next to me in them."
Emma giggled and climbed onto the bed. "I won't."
He raised his eyebrow and said, "No wonder why you wanted to come here."
She straddled him and he sat up to kiss her. After a few moments, Emma pulled away, "You're wearing too much."
He nodded and said, "You're right."
She unbuckled his belt, unbuttoned and unzipped his pants and she smiled at him. "We're going to have a lot of sex today."
"Damn right we are." He took off his shirt and helped Emma get his pants off. He looked her up and down and said, "Keep those boots on."
Emma smiled, "Okay."
"Oh my God." Sean put his hands on his head.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes." Emma laughed. "Em, that was amazing."
"It definitely was."
"And those boots. You need to break them out like once a month."
"Okay, but I think I need to take them off now. My toes are pinching a little." She laid back and unzipped one of the boots.
He said, "Oh God, even that's hot."
"Oh?" Emma took the first one off then slowly unzipped the other. "You like this?"
Sean went up on one elbow and watched her, "Did Manny talk you into this?"
"Yes."
"I'll have to thank her."
Emma got the boots off and Sean climbed on top of her. She asked, "Are you ready for another round?"
Sean nodded, "Oh yes. We have a lot of time to make up for."
"We'll need to have lots and lots of sex then."
He smiled and said, "Like a decade worth of sex."
Emma smiled and held onto his shoulders, "I love you."
Sean leaned down, kissed her then said, "I love you."
After their second round of lovemaking, Sean was stroking Emma's hair while she rested her head on his chest.
"Em?"
"Yes?"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Of course." She sat up and turned to him, "Is everything okay?"
Sean nodded, "Everything is great. I'm the happiest I've ever been." She smiled. He continued, "I was just wondering if you ever thought about having another baby."
"Since you've been back in our lives, I've thought about having another baby nearly every single day."
Sean smiled and asked, "Really?"
She nodded, "I'd love to experience another pregnancy and have you by my side the whole time."
Sean asked, "How do you think Drew would react to a baby sister or brother?"
"Knowing him he'd be thrilled because that would mean he'd get to move into the basement."
Sean smiled, "It is really nice down there."
"I was actually thinking about giving him the room down there for his birthday. He would love to have some freedom. I could turn his room into an office so I can work from home more and we could turn the lounge area in the attic into a nursery."
"I really can't wait to marry you."
"Oh yeah?"
Sean nodded, "Yeah. Because then we can start trying for a baby."
Emma shrugged, "We could start trying now. There's no guarantee I'm going to get pregnant right away."
"You did with Drew."
"Good point."
Sean caressed her face, "Let's just enjoy each other's company, for now, okay?"
She nodded and smiled, "Okay." She motioned toward the bathroom, "There's a really nice tub in there. Wanna try it out?"
Sean smiled and said, "Lead the way."
"We are going to sleep well tonight."
Sean laughed as he climbed into the bed, "I had a fun time."
Emma joined him and smiled, "Me too."
Sean asked, "Wanna talk until we fall asleep?"
"Yes because I want to hear about your day with our son."
"Okay." They got into a comfortable position and Sean told the story of his day, "Drew was very interested in what I was doing and I taught him how to use a few tools."
"Oh yeah?"
He nodded, "Yep. He even asked if he could work for me someday."
"Really?"
Sean nodded, "Yep. He really liked it and I was so thrilled that he did."
Emma smiled, "What did the guys all think when they saw him?"
"Oh they couldn't believe the resemblance and they were all really great with him. When I had to look at some paperwork, one of my best guys Pete, let Drew watch him mod a Blue Jays player's car."
"Drew must have been so excited."
"He was."
Emma smiled and said, "I'm really happy that you guys are getting along."
"Well, again, it's all new and I'm not wearing the disciplinarian hat. Once that happens, we may butt heads."
Emma nodded.
He looked at her and smiled, "I still can't believe that get up you were wearing earlier."
Emma giggled.
"You looked so hot. I think I got hard the second you walked out of the bathroom."
"Oh really?"
"Yes. You're beautiful anyway but wow, that was incredible."
"Well, you know you're pretty hot yourself." Sean scoffed and Emma continued, "You are. I still don't understand how you were single."
He shrugged, "I was busy with the job and I guess I could never commit to anyone."
"How many women have you seriously dated?"
"One? Two? My last relationship wasn't even really serious. At least not on my end. And I felt bad because she was really broken up about it when I ended things."
"How long ago was that?"
"About a year, year and a half ago."
"Oh yeah?"
Sean nodded, "I had a hard time committing to anyone because I was still hung up on you. There were times when I wanted to reach out and see how you were doing but I'd always chicken out. Maybe if I had, we would have gotten together sooner."
Emma shook her head, "This is all my fault. I should have told you right away. Or at least when I knew you were back home and you were safe." She held his hand and said, "Again, I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you."
He smiled and kissed her, "I know you will."
The next morning, Sean woke up and watched Emma as she slept. He propped himself up on one elbow, reached over and began to stroke her hair. After a few moments, she woke up smiling.
"Good morning, beautiful."
Emma opened her eyes, "Good morning, handsome."
"How did you sleep?"
"Great, you?"
"Very well." He caressed her face, "Would you like to order some breakfast?"
Emma shook her head, "Not yet."
"Oh? Not hungry?"
She smiled and said, "Not for food."
Sean raised an eyebrow, "Miss Nelson, what are you hungry for?"
She stuck her hand into his underwear, "Well, Mr. Cameron, I guess you can say I'm hungry for you." Sean groaned and Emma smiled at him. "Are you okay?"
Sean nodded as Emma moved her hand. "This is a great way to wake up."
"Lie back." Sean got on his back and Emma sat up, "I'm going to take care of you this morning."
"Oh, alright."
After Sean and Emma had their fun they ordered breakfast and had a picnic on the bed.
"I had a great time last night and this morning."
Sean smiled, "Me too." Emma looked at him and Sean asked, "What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"I guess it's because I love you so much."
"Oh yeah?"
She nodded, "Yes. And I want to marry you as soon as possible."
Sean smiled, "Well, I want to get you a really nice engagement ring first."
Emma leaned forward and kissed him, "Did we agree to get married?"
"No, we agreed that we want to get married. I still want to do all the traditional things that come along with it. Like proposing to you, being engaged and then getting married."
Emma nodded, "Okay."
"I also still need to move into your house."
"I don't want to wait until April and I don't care how it looks to other people. We should have been together as a family this entire time."
Sean smiled, leaned forward and kissed her, "I love you."
Jay and Manny took Drew out for breakfast at a diner.
"So," Jay looked at Drew, "What's it like having your dad in your life?"
"It's pretty cool. I like him a lot."
Manny smiled.
Drew asked, "You all have known each other since Degrassi?"
Jay and Manny nodded.
"That's a long time."
Jay joked, "It sure is."
Drew took a sip of his drink then asked, "Why aren't you two together?"
Manny said, "Well, there are a lot of reasons."
Drew looked at them and said, "So you just have sex but don't love each other?"
Jay almost spit out his drink.
Manny looked at Drew, "We care about each other but we're at different places in our lives right now."
Drew shrugged, "So you may get together at some point?" They both nodded, "Don't you think you've wasted enough time? My parents sure did."
Manny asked, "How did you get to be so wise, Drew?"
He shrugged, "I guess I'm just observant."
Jay asked, "So what did you think of your dad's shop?"
Drew's face lit up, "I loved it. It's pretty impressive."
Jay nodded, "That's great. Any interest in becoming a mechanic?"
"Yes. I'm not really into school and can't picture myself ever going to university."
Manny said, "Never say never. Things may change in a couple of years."
"I guess."
Jay said, "But it's always good to have a skill like that in case the university thing doesn't work out for you. And your dad is one of the best mechanics I know."
Drew nodded and smiled.
Emma whined as she zipped up her bag, "I don't want to leave."
"Neither do I." Sean wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her shoulder from behind. "This was nice."
Emma turned around, "It was more than nice."
Sean smiled, "It was." He kissed her and pulled away, "We can still have a nice time at the house."
"True."
"I really love your house."
"Soon it will be our house."
Sean smiled, he kissed her again quickly and let go of her waist. "Come on. Let's go home and see our son before Jay corrupts him."
Emma laughed and said, "Okay."
